Very rewarding trip
It has been a short but very rewarding life on board. Everything is very well organized, from pick-up and drop-off to the boat and the transfer after the trip is over to the airport or another hotel. The organization is very good, well-structured tempos, snacks and drinks between dives.Spectacular food.All the staff on the boat are super friendly and help at any time.The boat is old but has a lot of charm.The dive sites are well chosen depending on the weather and waves. The dive guides accompany you without pressure. Dives are 60 minutes.We are very happy to have been able to enjoy a few days on this boat and with this crew.

Absolutely perfect
It was a perfect vacation. The cabins are comfortable, the boat was beautiful, the food was authentic and delicious. It was the crew that made the experience perfect. Everyone was kind, professional, enthusiastic. You can tell they enjoy and take pride in their work. They want to share these dive sites and make the trip a positive and enjoyable one. No amount of atmosphere can make up for what a dedicated and invested staff brings to the experience and they are what made my vacation so wonderful. I am so very grateful for them

Great first dive experience in Thailand
Relaxing week to ring in the New Year. First time diving in Thailand. The guitar shark encounters topped the underwater experiences. Really great divers with similar values and interests.

Came for the dive, stayed for the food.
The friendliness and service level of the crew exceeded expectations! I'm sure every review before has talked about the food, so I'm just gonna skip that. Great value for money.
