Very well organized from start to finish. It was a
Very well organized from start to finish. It was a treat to have two or three days of pure solitude, without any other boats or divers to be seen. To have whale sharks, manta rays, turtles, and other marine life observed in addition to the diving was a wonderful added bonus. The dive guides were highly experienced and professional, and the crew were friendly and attentive at all times. I especially enjoyed having the towel sculptures ready for me after each morning dive - little gestures that provided an added touch of specialness to the vacation
