Comfortable room, happy, helpful, positive people running the entire operation. I loved that I could ask anyone about something and they would find the answer for me.

The best trip you will never forget
まず、たまたま、私たち含めお客が4人しかおらず、広々した船内をたった4人で占有することができ、大変快適でした(笑)そしてインストラクターの方々や、スタッフの方々は大変親切で、何の心配もいりません。タンクの交換はもちろん、ナイトロックスのアナライズや、器材の洗浄、毎ダイブの着脱など、全部をやってくれました。私たちはただ、BCDを付けて、潜るだけでした(笑)日本人は私たち2人だけで、日本語を話せるスタッフが居なかったので少し心配でしたが、最低限ブリーフィングを聞き取れるリスニング力と、パッションがあれば大丈夫でした！みなさん沢山話しかけてくれたので、とても楽しい旅でした。日々の食事も美味しかったですが、新婚旅行で来ていることを話すと翌日、日本食を特別に作ってくれました！海の中は想像以上で、楽園という言葉はまさにパラオの海のためにあるんだ、と感じた程です。大物、マクロ、地形、なんでもあります。最高の新婚旅行でした。また機会があれば、ぜひまた乗りたいと思います。ありがとうございました！！First of all, there happened to be only 4 guests, including us, and we were able to occupy the spacious ship with only 4 people, which was very comfortable (lol).The instructors and staff were very friendly and helpful, and we didn't have to worry about a thing.They did everything from changing our tanks, to analizing our nitrox, to cleaning our equipment, to putting on and taking off every dive, etc....We just had to put on our BCD and dive, lol.We were a little worried because we were the only two Japanese and there were no Japanese speaking staff, but at least we had the listening skills to understand the briefings and the passion!Everyone talked to us a lot, so it was a very enjoyable trip.The daily meals were delicious, but when I told the staff that we were here on our honeymoon, they made a special Japanese meal for us the next day!The ocean was so much more than I had imagined, I felt that the word "paradise" is exactly what Palau's ocean is for.Big fish, macro, topography, you name it, it's there.It was the best honeymoon ever.If we have the chance to go back, we would definitely go on it again.Thank you!

Amazing diving in comfort on Solitude 1
Super friendly crew, amazing service. Diving was safe and exciting, the Philippines itinerary really went beyond my expectations, the reefs were so lush and the dives were diverse, from walls to muck to the threshers. It was my second time on the solitude one and I’m looking forward to a third trip.

Excellent trip - diving was great and crew was very attentive!
Parrot fish spawning several days before the new moon. Blue Corner did not disappoint. Lots of sharks. Mantas at German channel. Cleaning stations galore for all types and species of fish. Remarkably healthy reefs. Boat was spacious and well accommodated. Cruise directors paid extreme attention to detail right down to the bbq on the beach the last night. Diving was so much better from the Liveaboard than from land (I did both). Much easier, much shorter commutes to dive sites (shaving off >45 min at times), more attentive dive guides, and importantly more relaxing dives. Large diversity of dives - corners, walls/drop offs, channels, shallow and deep dives, spectacular caves/swim throughs, wrecks and even bump head parrot fish spawning before the new moon!
