Excellent dive sites for big stuffs

Excellent dives - saw many sharks (white tip, silver tip, grey reef, nursing), close contact with manta rays and eagle rays, octopus dancing and mating, swam among the fishes and you smell like a fish after some dives. Good boat - small but practical, good air con control, enough space for luggages Friendly crews and guides - professional, supporting all dives, good food provided Cons - can increase dives from 17 to 20 easily, soft drinks not included.

Amazing trip

We spent a amazing time on the small emperor atollboat. The room is tiny, but very clean and sweet. The crew did a great job and as well the guides. I think one of the best thing is, that the group of guets is small, so very familiar and when we were diving, there are not many others with you. I really can recommend the emperor atoll. They are well organized, we have every day lovely food, the boat was totally clean, we just spent such a good time. We are already planing our next trip with them 😊

Fantastic trip and diving - Pelagic Magic

The manta night dive/snorkel was magical as the mantas attracted by the lights at the end of the boat were barrel rolling. We were lucky enough to snorkel with a juvenile male whale shark and saw 3 more species of sharks, white tip, black tip and grey reef and dived a shark cleaning station. Morays galore on the first dive. The crew and food was fantastic. So are the ensuite cabins. Such a good atmosphere on a small boat with a max of 12 people. The crew goes out of their way to make your stay comfortable. Sunset Beach BBQ was well organised and the food was excellent. The only downside was that there are only 2 dive guides for 12 divers and there was very little interaction between guides and divers. I can highly recommend this liveaboard and itinerary.
