I had a great week on the MV Orion. Lots of sharks, lots of fun and really conscientious dive guides and crew. The cabins were also very comfortable and spacious. Would most certainly book this liveaboard again.

On the top : great dive sites, very versatile (channel dives, coral reef, pelagic etc.) Then, the great organization of the cruise should be mentioned. Basically guests have nothing to do except enjoying the dives, the boat and the trip. The management of the boat is perfect, the crew is super friendly, not to mention the dive guides who are experienced and extremely nice.

Phenomenal dives with a capable knowledgable crew.
The night dive with sharks was incredible. 40 or so nurse sharks just swimming through the group. As long as you keep your light off the sharks will come pretty close and you can still see pretty well without a light. Snorkeling with a whaleshark. Manta cleaning station. Hanging out with the crew. Having any and all needs predicted and ameliorated before I even knew I'd need them.
