It was amazing! 🤩
The moment we left the trip, we wanted to get right back on the boat and do another trip. That’s how good it was! Vincent and the crew were awesome, they answered any concerns we had and were flexible with everyone’s needs on the boat. The amount of money you pay doesn’t equate to the level of comfort you get - the crew went out of their way to make every single day and dive super fun, enjoyable and relaxing for us. We are already making plans for our next trip which will be very soon 😎

Champaign experience on a beer budget
Vincent and his staff ensured the best experience. The dives sites were quite good although visibility and surges weren’t always the most cooperative. The dive guides and boat crew worked together being flexible with time and location to ensure the best experience. Food was delicious and overly abundant. We can’t recommend this boat and crew enough, a fantastic time.

Best liveaboard of the 11 I have done!
Feeling as safe and comfortable diving as I ever have in my 1500 dives. As my dive master taught me things I had never learned and, can’t believe in all my Dives no one else had pointed out.

Awesome diving and so fun.
This is a very fun crew. The boat was great. They were so helpful. We saw our first Sea Snake, and a Giant Grouper. This is our 3rd liveabord and they will be our first choice next year.

Experienced Diver Review
Fellow divers, the crew, meal time and The Parawa. Attention to details and some of the best dives and briefings. Bento is the Ringmaster of the whole show and his 10 years on the boat make the whole trip flow seamlessly.
