Mermaid Liveaboards

I enjoyed the Komodo dive trip on the Mermaid II. Most of the dives were 60min or longer, with abundant marine life and vibrant corals. I thoroughly enjoyed most buffet dishes served on board, with a good variety of fruits and snacks. All the staff are friendly and helpful. The cabin size is a bit small, especially given the high price of the trip.

This is one of our best dive liveaboard's ever. The organisation is great, super briefings with excellent presentations on the dive sites, great dive sites, particularly in the National Park. Copies of all briefings available on USB!! A couple of shore trips, one to see the dragons. The crew are amazing, super helpful in getting set up or after a dive helping to get wet suits off. NITROX quality always spot on 32%. Guides are experienced on the sites and felt super safe the whole time. Food was amazing with all meals with fruit every meal and fresh vegetables at lunch and dinner. Again service in the dinning room superb. The dive sites in the NP are excellent, Castle Rock totally immersed in fish with sharks, giant Trevellies and Napoleon. Manta Alley big groups of Manta and up close. Corals in very good condition. Sites outside the NP still with good fish but some with damage due to dynamite fishing but recovering. Cabins a bit small but with 4 dives a day not a lot of time spent in the cabins. Would we do it again? Already discussing it!!! Ing the manager and Angela our guide get special mention.

It has been by far one of the best liveaboard trip I've been on. The crew were all very attentive and the guides were knowledgeable to ensure your experience satisfaction and safety! Overall, very professional and organised without forgetting the element of fun in each itinerary item :) Kudos to the Mermaid II team!
