The best liveaboard of my life
The largest whalesharks I've ever seen, bigger schools of hammerheads than I could imagine, sea lions playing with me during many safety stops, land trips to see amazing birds and turtles, marine iguanas feeding in an incredible landscape... this has been the best liveaboard of my life with no doubt. The divemasters were very professional and attentive, the boat is new and super luxury, very clean and with new diving equipment, the staff is always helping and the service is excellent. It has been waaay better than expected. Best destination in the world as for big stuff for sure...

Outstanding service, amazing diving.
The crew was amazing with even the captain helping with gear and checking every diver before every dive to ensure they were set to dive. The dives were very good. We saw many things for the first time. Our cabin, are including the bathroom, was spacious and very comfortable.

Best Liveaboard EVER!
This liveaboard exceeded my expectations. I’ve never had so much help before and after a dive with getting gear on/off. It was fantastic and made the dive experience so much better! Our guides were also amazing. The captain even came down and did final tank checks before we got into the panga. Absolutely amazing service and beautiful boat!

Sharks galore!

- Crew was really amazing, going above and beyond on service and food. Diving was amazing, loads of sharks...currents are strong but you never fight against them. Boat was really comfortable...we stayed in the lower deck, which have bigger rooms.
