Odyssey March 11 2023
Spent the week of March 11th 2023 onboard the Odyssey. Had a lovely time! Crew and dive guides were great. Food was fresh, lots of variety, catered to specific needs. Wifi does not really work (we were able to be connected on and off for maybe 2 days out of the week). I didn’t know this boat was owned by a French company, so almost all of the guests were from France and staff spoke mostly French and Arabic. Boat is comfortable and spacious, but could use a bit of touch ups here and there. We did 3 dives a day and everything was very well organized and safe. Big shoutout to Migo the dive guide!

Great boat
Very good boat, but disappointing diving; it would have been better in autumn. The cook is very good with veggies cooking. The boat is modern and spacious…. At two thirds of guest capacity
