Lots of amazing diving in Halmahera and Misool
We did the Halmahera-> Misool liveaboard on Seahorse. We had a really great trip. The crew were kind and helpful and the diving operation was very smooth. They have really good speedboats. In the 10 days of diving we never dove a dive site with other boats. In Misool we had a bunch of great excursions that was super nice!

Diving in Komodo with the Seahorse Crew is fascinating and very friendly
The variety of the dive sites is amazing. Mantas, Snakes, Turtles, Cuttlefish, Nudibranches, Sharks and sooo many diferent corals. simply beautiful. The bays we staying at and the landscapes we got to see are stunning. Getting up close to the Komodo Dragon was a great experience and singing together with the crew on the last night was cheerfull, as well as the interaction with the Captain, Akim and Stephen throught the whole trip made me feel very welcome and at ease.

Marvelous diving trip trough Komodo Islands
This diving cruise offers to participants some valuable moments underwater such as observing a large range of Manta rays and sharks. It’s also a good manner to practice smaller marine life dives. Moreover, this vessel is very confortable and the crew with his team building, his cohesive staff provides to guests a customer care I have rarely known. That’s why I advise strongly this trip to all divers who desire to live a unique experience, a kind of real enchanted parenthesis.

Wonderful dives around Komodo in a beautiful setting
At all times, the crew was present to help us not only for the dives (organization/accompaniment/return boat) but also during the different trips on land (beach/sunset/dragons). The boat is perfectly suited for diving (place to get dressed/plenty of rinse tanks/photo-video room) but also to relax between dives (shaded and ventilated benches). The navigation was quiet and pleasant. The itinerary was adapted according to the weather conditions and the wishes regarding the types of sites. Finally, there was a nice diversity in the dives (large school of fish/sharks/turtles/mantas/nudibranchs/octopus/...).Congratulations to the crew and organization of the Seahorse.

The dive sites were world class. Full of healthy corals, colours and fish life everywhere. The crew onboard was extremely hardworking, all the diving gear and other material were perfectly organised and minded at all times. Extra activities such as a breathtaking viewpoint, a beach with sharks, a local village and a barbecue made my trip complete.

Highly recommend Seahorse!
Everything about this trip was exceptional from the crew, to the food, dive sites and the boat. Everything was very comfortable and the crew was very professional and fun. There was a huge diversity of dive sites as we moved from Raja Ampat at the beginning to Lebeh at the end. There was a great mix of beautiful reef dives as well as muck dives.

Our expectations were not fully met, but we will return.
We had high expectations. Raja Ampat is currently the number one destination. We carefully selected the boat and diving sites. The entire itinerary was crucial for us. The boat crew, Indonesians in general, are incredible. They took care of us with a smile. They remembered our names on the second day and didn't forget a thing. All we had to do was ask. Dinner on the beach was a nice surprise. They put a lot of effort into it and did a great job. However, if I may say so, the whole event is overrated. Some clients didn't even want to go out, preferring to sleep. Some were obviously bored on site. The boat is comfortable and clean. The speedboats are great. They are very comfortable. Easy to get in, easy to get out.

Spending four days in Misool, where the sites were spectacular for both divers and snorkelers, was the high point. The lookout at Pianyemo was spectacular, as was the lagoon site nearby. Sitting on the prow of the boat at sunset made for wonderful memories. Night dives and a special night snorkel for the non-diver were fantastic!
