A Truly Memorable Liveaboard Adventure
This was a fantastic first liveaboard experience, and I couldn't have asked for a better introduction to liveaboard diving. The dive team was engaging, attentive, highly qualified, and consistently went above and beyond to ensure everyone's comfort and safety. The entire crew shared the same positive attitude—from helping us gear up and assisting us in and out of the water, to the captain, dinghy crew, and deckhands always greeting everyone with smiles and a willingness to help. Their professionalism and enthusiasm really stood out throughout the trip. The food was excellent, with a great variety at every meal. There was always plenty to eat and drink, and the quality and selection remained impressive throughout the week. The land excursion to visit the local villages and explore the national park was a fun addition that complemented the diving nicely. For a liveaboard lasting over a week, the boat was comfortable and well suited to spending extended time onboard. The itinerary was well paced, with a great balance between diving, relaxing, and other activities. One experience that really demonstrated the crew's dedication happened when my dive computer malfunctioned at the very beginning of the trip. My dive guide, Mimi, took the time to replace the battery in an attempt to get it working again. Although that didn't solve the problem, the crew was able to rent me a dive computer onboard, allowing me to complete every dive without any disruption. I really appreciated how quickly and proactively they worked to solve the issue and make sure I didn't miss out. Overall, this was an outstanding liveaboard experience with excellent service, a professional and caring crew, great diving, delicious food, and exceptional value for money. I would happily recommend this liveaboard to anyone looking for a safe, enjoyable, and well-run diving adventure, and I wouldn't hesitate to join them again.

A great Raja Ampat trip
We've done both Komodo (2019) and Raja Ampat (2025) on the Mermaid I and we've enjoyed both trips very much! Super easy logistics, towels and drinks after each dive (and hot drinks after each night dive!). Long 70 minute dives (60 for night dives) with 4 divers per guide. A plus that they now have Starlink internet also!
