We cannot ask for more.
The dive guides are superb and the dives are spectacular. The cooks and the bartender. The gorgeous cabin with a large shower that overlooked the ocean. The common room is superbly decorated and furnished.In my opinion, land visits could be improved

- The entire staff is aware of every detail, from placing your fins on the boat to helping you put on your suit. The variety and quality of the meals and the cocktails. The bartender is magnificent. The initial talk about safety and on tour to show us the emergency exits.
