Oman Aggressor, Oman

Super good crew

Tranquility is a very spacious liveaboard. Dive deck is the less spacious area but no problem with that. Divers were divided into three groups because there were two spacious ribs so one group was waiting until first one was ready and went to the dive deck for loading. Good solution. Saloon has two large sofa groups and big dining area. Second floor has also two sofa groups and fridge full of beer, whitewine and soft drinks. This floor has also suite rooms and captains area. We had the biggest one and it is just great. Lots of space and cabinets/drawers to place all your stuff. Interesting points is that sink was in the room though it left more space to toilet and shower. On top of master suite is four sun chairs. Third floor has sun deck and large sofa group to relax. Dive operations went well and all general safety issues were covered on the first day and before the first dive basic diving safety rules. Briefing gave good picture about the planned dive and dive site. Food was the best, or at least second best, we have been eating on any liveaboard. Lots of variation and different tastes. I would say that only minus, very small one, is that there were no cheese or cold cuts on breakfast. I have to say that if you feel hunger it is not up to kitchen. Service was excellent from every perspective. When gearing or ungearing you get helping hands at lightning speed without asking any help. Nice thing was that before and after dive one guy was serving water or juice and after the night dive hot chokolate. That was great. As summary we had the best crew ever and very comfortable boat.

My friend and I both did this trip and we absolutely loved it.

First of all, the crew and seamen were amazing. They helped us with all our equipment when getting ready for dives. They were always giving us water or refreshments before and after dives. They were outstanding!! The beds to the cabin were fairly hard if you are not use to a stiff bed. But we asked for another comforter to lay on bottom and that made it much better. The dive guides Shaker, Mostafa, and Sabrina were are very wonderful and made the diving even better. The chef and pastry chef were both amazing and accomplished us when asked for different foods due to dietary needs. I can’t say enough about the crew and customer service they provided. The diving was good, sometimes the visibility was bad due to weather but that’s to be expected. We saw a lot of octopus and honeycomb eels. No sharks which surprised me. One group saw humpback whales when diving, we saw from the boat.

Luxury holidays at the highest level

On the Hallaniyat Islands there was good visibility and an insane amount of fish. On the way there and back the visibility was not so good. We had almost no waves in March and really great night dives. From large rays to leopard sharks and many fish rollers, everything was there. Unfortunately, we didn't see the humpback whales, which are usual for the season. But the boat was pure luxury. When we woke up in the morning, there was coffee in bed, warm outdoor showers and preheated towels after the dive. The food was fantastic and the crew super nice and always helpful. The dive guides were also very nice and also tried to show something. However, it really requires very independent diving in the body team, which means that the dive guides did not try to keep the groups together, you could follow them or not. You were always picked up at the end of the dive after setting the buoy with the dinghy. For experienced divers this is of course a lot of freedom, for beginners not so suitable. I thought it was great.

Loved the diving and the yacht but cabin comfort (aft) and food service needs serious improvement.

We saw sperm whales near Mirbat on the second evening -- magical. The other guests were fun, experienced and interesting. Lots of rest and time to read between dives. Our dive guide Charlie was superb fun, quite experienced and great guy!
