This is my 3rd time on the Turks and Caicos Explorer II and won't be my last.
The diving is wonderful with healthy reefs and lots of interesting sites to dive. The staff are fun and there were tons of laughs everyday. In the past years, we had dive masters that would wear tutus on this boat and have special critters to point out. This time was different but just as enjoyable. We had a couple amazing dive masters that enjoyed educating us on the underwater life and showing us new creatures to love. (new creature this trip for me was the conchfish-small cardinal fish that has a symbiotic relationship with the conch) I love the small stuff as much as the big stuff. They have an amazing night dive that you just jump in and hover at about 35-40 feet and watch the show--reef and nurse sharks are hunting and feeding. We stayed right under the boat for the whole dive.

This was an amazing experience.
I did 27 dives in 5 and a half days. The night and dawn dives were fantastic. "Flying" on the stern ropes was really fun, ok, I should have been practicing safety stop hovering instead. The camaraderie of the guests and crew was really special.

Wonderful staff made for an amazing week
We enjoyed a comfortable week of diving and saw a wide array of sea life expertly guided by friendly staff. The food was stellar, the dive sites featured sharks, rays, eels, and turtles. Rooms were cleaned daily, excellent Captain Bob navigated us to a diverse array of sites, and the guides (Mollie and Tristen) were entertaining and informative.

Fantastic experience
We saw big animals on almost every dive. The crew was super kind and helpful and the food was plenty and delicious. The pre dive briefings were some of the best I have ever seen - very entertaining and useful. Night dives were especially breathtaking - never seen so many sharks hunting all at once, I might be spoiled after this trip!
