Absolutely amazing two days with an awesome crew.
The scuba diving for the certified divers was absolutely amazing, as well as for my friends who did a few "Try Dives". The night dive is one of the coolest things i have done in my entire life, seeing sharks and other big fish feeding as well as the crazy colors of the corals under the UV light. Drinking wine and looking at the amazing stars at night was a big plus after a day in the water. Even while snorkeling, we were able to see octopus, sea turtles, and many other fish/coral.

Our first LiveAboard experience and it was perfect
This was our first LiveAboard dive experience. The length of the trip was perfect for us.. The guides were helpful, friendly, and all about safety. Food was great and plenty to eat. Getting a hot shower at the end of diving was great and having AC in the rooms at night made sleeping comfortable.
