One of the best diving experiences I have had
The diving itself was superb, the boat and crew were excellent . The accommodations were nice . The food was good . The crew and especially the dive guides were very professional and safe. All in all it was a fantastic trip and the Palau Sport was a much better experience than I had expected . John and Edwin do a great job ! I would certainly recommend this dive boat to anyone looking to do a live aboard in the Philippines .

Superb experience on my first liveaboard trip
The dive guides are very funny, attentive and friendly. They offered help whenever I approached them and made me worry-free. They are also very cautious to the protection of Tubbataha, such as picking up marine debris and making sure divers would not accidentally damage the corals. They dive deck is very spacious and each diver has a large space to gear up. The cabin and bed were comfortable, and would be even better if there was some noise reduction measures for the air conditioning and boat engine. Food was served in buffet style and tasted good. Chef is good at making different kinds of food and desserts. Blueberry donut is super yummy!

unforgettable trip
Before booking this trip I read some negative reviews - yet these did not reflect my experience at all. The boat was comfortable, clean and everythinig functioned well. The boat is specially designed as liveaboard vessel: easy and spaceaous to prepare for the dives and a nice, refreshing warm (deck) showe after the dive. The crew is very friendly and helpful and the food diverse and good quality. Diving Tubbataha was like a dream come true, with professional and competent dive guides. Its a very goof value for money - as most other dive operators I considered for booking were higher priced.

Good dive sites but accommodation needs improvement
Dive experience was good, but the divers were divided into 9 people per group, this is a bit crowded for us and the dive masters only guide the directions but rarely guide on marine life to see under the water, so you are in your own to spot things. The cabin has aircon and bathroom, but the bathroom smells really bad throughout the trip, not sure the ventilation fan in the bathroom really works. If you are not used to the strange smell, on the first day you could have a feeling of wanting to vomit. The crew of the boat are very nice, especially the ones serving your meal and the ones preparing your dive gear. The food on the boat is really average, but good initiative for the crew to arrange one nice dinner on the rooftop during one of the days of the trip. There is an extra US$100 mandatory service charge (on top of fuel surcharge of 200 and park fee of 100), guess this is in case people don’t give much voluntary tip.
