The hidden costs

Whilst the diving was fantastic and the dive guide & crew were brilliant, what left a bad taste was the penny pinching of blue o two where everything was chargeable. Even down to only having one dive guide and he was made to dive, whatever problems he had ie ear trouble which was that bad his mask filled with blood. So maybe the company should review the way it runs it’s business and it would get more repeat customers

Enjoyable cruise with great food and good diving...plus some incredible experiences

Saw many sharks and manta rays, plus some turtles. Majority of dives had good to great visibility with wide variety of corals and marine creatures. Final dive saw us joined on surface by spinner dolphins.

Thoroughly enjoyed the entire experience

The Manta and Shark dives. The uncrowded and relaxed atmosphere around the large dining table, that seated everyone together for lunch and evening meals. Many interesting conversations, with interesting people.

1. Sea Spirit being smaller boat, with smaller compliment of divers, meant no crowded dive sites, 2. I enjoyed the diverse choice of dive sites. 3. The attentive staff and crew,
