Had an amazing time diving with Carpe Diem in Raja Ampat
Had an amazing time diving with Carpe Diem in Raja Ampat. The dive sites were incredible - saw beautiful and diverse coral, tons and tons of fishies, wobbegong shark, pygmy squid, pygmy sea horses, sharks, turtles, etc, etc! The boat was beautiful. The meals were delicious and different every time. My boat-mates were awesome. The crew was super fun. They kept us constantly hydrated with coffee and jasmine tea.

Best liveaboard experience ever, highly recommend
Whatever you expect, Carpe Diem is more than that. Thanks to amazing staff service we could fully focus on diving without a drop of sweat. All crews are super friendly, needless to say quality of the food. We were served from soup, then main, and then dessert every night. All personnal stuff such as towels, wetsuit, waterbottle etc. was labelled, and the bed was made every morning. It was like staying at a hotel, very luxurious and comfy. Dive masters were so great at spotting micro things which added so much fun in every dive.

Fairy tale on the sea
Quite a magical liveaboard! Cecile and her crew are simply unique: they made the whole experience very enjoyable, hassle-free and targeting the best dives sites of Raja Ampat. They are caring and attentive, but also cheerful and playful. A nice and chilled environment, welcoming both to groups and solo travelers. They give a special attention to safety and security, which I highly appreciated, too. And all the above in one of the most elegant and refined boat I've ever cruises the sea on! Kudos to you,guys!
