Another awesome trip aboard the Turks and Caicos Explorer!
The crew immediately made us feel like family. I am still in touch with many of the passengers from the trip. Dinner was especially fun with the passengers sharing stories of diving, sailing, and of course how they met their better half!

- The First Mate Amber began the trip by inviting us into her home. And it just got better from there.. The chef created some of the best dishes I have ever had! Always delicious and always plenty of food!. The diving was wonderful. The site choices and dive guides were GREAT!.

Fun Dive eat dive & dive eat dive dive eat dive sleep and do it again!
Most of the sites we were able to find or explore and see more types of sea life than I have on prior trips with the crew making it fun knowing what we would see and or find around each site that we visited. Each day the crew / dive masters would have a different theme for all of the sites even going so far as to dress up in costumes as this would keep things fun. They were vary mindful of all needed safety aspects reviewing prior to leaving port after boarding boat which covered boat as well as diving. Never mind the Great diving the cook onboard would make snacks and meals that you wouldn't expect with a variety each day they also had well stocked soft drinks. So while the boat was not a palace it was very functional and comfortable dive area was set up nicely with places for your gear so you would not need to take it to your cabin. Between dives it was nice to be up top on fly bridge while going to our next dive sites as on various days we would have Dolphins swimming to keep up with the boat, just having fun jumping boat wake.

One hundred stars 🌟
My 3rd time on Explorer 2 in 3 years . This time things got so much even better in terms of hospitality, the food quality , the crew attention to detail and fun loving attitude. Every day was just perfection . Can’t wait to go back . The captain is outstanding, experienced , lovely to deal with . Crew is simply amazing . They are also focused on safety as priority, so all feel relaxed . Diving sites were fantastic , we were only ones . The food was delicious and plentiful. Cabins and the boat cleanliness was immaculate. The week felt like being with an instant family . Amazing diving vacation for the money . I truly recommend this liveaboard and I have done so many .

Everything was great!
I was very happy when I saw my cabin with two single beds and bathroom. Comparing to other boats, I felt it much bigger and comfortable. We did 5 dives a day everyday and one of the night dives was awesome with a lot of sharks. Food and drinks are all included and all the meals are delicious. The crews are very friendly and helpful. They are very hard workers to make our stay comfortable. Overall, the boat experience was wonderful!
