Amazing! Everything was very well organized and happened on time!
Too many to mention. Deep dive in current on the first day with reef sharks. Night dive with Manta's feeding. Swimming with a whale shark in Ari. Best diving trip I have been on in 15 years, with astonishing variety of sea-life. Well organized and friendly boat crew. I have already recommended Ocean Sapphire and its crew to a number of my diving friends, and will continue to do so in future.

- - Bâteau plongées suivant la croisière et remplissage des tanks à distance ne nuisant pas au calme sur le bateau - équipage local très serviable - les plongées sont bien guidées
No manta no whale sharks but great experience
We were lucky to be a small group of 7 divers, and therefore boat was spacefull, and all of us did appreciate that! Timing between dives and meals a little bit short. I regret there was only one night dive possible. All in all, good experience !
