Kit was in good condition, which matters more than people realise. Accommodation was a notch better than the price suggested. The cooking was a genuine surprise — better than most places we'd have picked ourselves. Would send friends their way.

Boat was crowded. Fine for the diving, less fine for the surface intervals. Crew were professional without being stiff about it.

Great few days in the water. Briefings were clear and nobody was pushed beyond their level. Guides answered every question, including the daft ones. No hesitation recommending them.

Visibility was excellent and the boat ran on time every morning. The team read the group well and adjusted without making a thing of it. No hesitation recommending them.
