Very good would not have expected it to be so.
The whole week was great. The highlight were the unexpected things, e.g. Manta.

Food and crew beyond 5*
Being on the Spirit of Freedom was incredible! The crew was beyond amazing and attentive while always cheerful and accommodating The diving (admittedly slow season) felt very repetitive with coral coral and more coral. Was hoping to at least see some turtles, rays or even colored jellyfish. Lots of coral Highlight was definitely the shark feeding of reef sharks

The dives were amazing. So many fish and other creatures to see. The coral was bright and beautiful. An exhausting amount of diving, but the crew was there making every moment great. Highly recommend Spirit of Freedom!

An unforgettable adventure!
The crew truly made this trip an unforgettable and special experience. Having a master reef guide like Jamie was fascinating, he pointed out so many magnificent creatures and his knowledge was incredible. The Finnderella service was fantastic, it made entering and exiting the water a cinch. The food was fantastic, the crew were lots of fun and full of enthusiasm.

A wonderful trip
The diving spots at the Osprey reef and the Bougainville reef were particularly awesome. Underwater landscape were magic with a beautiful fauna, huge walls, colorful corals, tunnels in the reefs to explore and the deep blue of the ocean with a long range visibility that I never experienced before.
