Expectations well met!

Actually seeing every shark you could expect to see and more; drinking and chatting with people from all over the world and be surprised for dinner with fresh caught fish.

Recommended for
All of the people (including crew and fellow divers); the beauty of the sites visited and the special care taken in the food.
