Safe + Happy :)
We had an amazing time aboard the Tiburon explorer for my 40th birthday! The staff were all amazing and felt by family by the end. I came onto this trip a bit nervous about water conditions - specifically diving in currents and cold water. But our dive guides made it clear from the start that safety was their top priority - they would assess the conditions and pivot if ever it felt unsafe. They kept reiterating that safety was always top priority. I felt confident and safe diving with them and truly appreciated their patience and their professionalism.

Unique diving and boat experience
100% recommended! The boat is very, very comfortable (big rooms, very clean, small group), the food is delicious (be prepared to game some weight ;-)), the service of the crew is first class! The dives are amazing, be prepared for some current and many animals.

The best liveaboard I’ve been on!
The eight days went by so quickly. I think the highlights were definitely diving Wolf and Darwin, but all the dives were great. Alex and Ronnie are great divemasters. The Panga drivers were terrific. The entire staff were genuinely friendly and always went their extra mile. It was also a great group of guests. Fun folks and good divers! I loved this trip!!!
