Amazing Alejandra, Fire, Hugo, and Captain Adam are the best!

Alejandra, Fire, Hugo, and Captain Adam are the best! The rest of the crew is awesome as well. I cannot say enough about the professionalism that comes with the employees of this boat. They went above an beyond to make everyone's trip amazing. Manta Ray night dive was incredible as well as the Shark and Stingray night dive. Owner take note: Alejandra is awesome!

Great liveaboard experience and diving trips

The first liveaboard diving experience was very good, although I didn't see whale sharks, but under the guidance of the guide, I still saw a lot of marine life, there were schools of nurse sharks, turtles, mantles, lionfish, etc., and I also felt the conscientious attitude of the staff on board, and the friendly smile of the guests, and was included in the list of friends who would recommend it in the future

Good value for money

One afternoon a group of nurse sharks swam right underneath the boat and we jumped in the water to snorkel with them. Amazing!
