Rustic charming trip
A very characterful boat, loads of charm , great crew The food was excellent and plentiful, (the only minor thing was organizational: they always served after our last dive immediately, so people arrived 30-60 mins late for dinner and scattered inside and outside, which didn’t result in a common supper experience) which was a bit strange. At some point dive guiding was a bit inattentive but we could arrange a satisfactory change after raising the issue y It’s an old boat but charming and i would always come back!

Valuable experience
The food provided was so delicious, and the scenery viewed from the boat was absolutely enchanting. The crew were all kind, and everything was managed in a well-organized and systematic way, which made it very comfortable.

Relaxing diving trip
I enjoyed almost every diving sites. It was an enjoyable and relaxing trip. The boat was a little bit old and needs some upgrades, but it was nice and big enough to give me a stable and romantic experience.
