Top big fish & shark spots, good service!
The service of the crew including airport transfer were well planned! At the top spots of the tour, there were usually several safari boats on site at the same time. However, the dives were always planned by the crew in such a way that there were rarely encounters with the other divers underwater!Top safari for those who are looking for sharks and big fish (manta rays / whale sharks etc) and can handle deeper and sometimes current-strong dives!Comfortable diving due to the infrastructure onboard as well as the diving dog!
