It was pleasant.
Lunch and dinner dishes were tasty. Wished breakfast was more than just eggs and toast. Also, would have preferred more snacks in between meals other than cookies and bananas. Diving takes much energy and calories. I found myself often hungry in between meals.

Sharks Sharks Sharks! Exceeded expectations.
Sharks and pelagics - tiger sharks, spinner sharks, nurse sharks, whale sharks, manta rays, eagle rays, and all the "normal" reef life you'd expect - more morays than I've ever seen, huge schools of reef fish, batfish, trevally jacks. Channel diving - like being un an underwater hurricane but unparalleled "fish parade" including hundreds of sharks, then floating like Superman over the reef once releasing near NDL. Some very cool special dives (Tiger Zoo on Fuvahmulah; Fish Factory w/ many Spinners, some Reef and even a Bull Shark; Fish Tank with dozens of stingrays and hundreds of Moray Eels; a frenzied Nurse Shark dive). Professional, friendly, and customer service-focused crew, very helpful. Three late afternoon sunset stops on uninhabited tropical islands. Crossing the equator. Overall just an amazing trip.

Lifechanging experience that will be hard to beat!
The highlight of this trip was Moofushi Corner. The simplicity of swimming against the current with hundreds of thousands of other fish, mimics the feeling of flying. Add in a very curious baby eagle ray, and it makes the experience magical. Would highly recommend and will certainly look to visit again and dive with Eco Blue!

Very competent dive guides that respect sea creatures.
Incredible encounters with manta rays. Great nurse shark night encounter, this was my fourth time doing this night time shark dive with different boats and this was the best approach to these animals.

It was a great bucket list experience.
Highlight of the trip was the diving. The Dive masters were great and let us create great memories like crossing the equator and becoming 'shellbacks'. When they found out we were sitting at 99 dives and they decided to scheduled a night dive on the last day to get us to a 100 dives. That night the crew toasted our 100th dive. Great liveaboard experience.

Not the best experinence
No introduktion of crew No introduktion of guests No evaluation of dives First 8 dives was not interesting. So many other interesting divesites around. I was left by boat in surface water with SMB even I was highly visible and very close by boat. Situation was not dealt with in any way. I asked for evalution on what happened. They said they would find out and come back to me. They never did. We were a big group. Often on too small dive sites so it got very crowded at times. Quality of foods was not good. Coffee is Nescafe, bread is toastbread and cake was supermarket cake - not freshbaked. Local dishes with fish were good. Not a good armotphere among the guests.

- We had 4 whalesharks at the same time. Visit to uninhabited islands. Lots of octopus & manta.
