Overpriced for the quality of the boat

We loved the combo of diving and land excursions. By there were some downfalls too. The cabins are extremely outdated. The crew hungout in the guest space and played their music (often rap). The dive master was not that professional nor very competent. There were often 7-8 divers to 1 dive master. Some people couldn't dive because they didn't have enough rental equipment, even though the divers said they notified the company beforehand.

There were 2 dives a day mixed with land excursions (we got to see a lot of the various Seychelles islands). Our captain did a great job changing the itinerary due to inclement weather.

I would do it again...

I enjoyed the snorkeling, so many fish and warm waters of course. I also enjoyed the island excursions, every island was (of course) different.
