      Customer Reviews The MV Carpe Novo liveaboard customer reviews listed here have been chosen for you to get a feel for the scuba diving experience you'll get.
      Customer Review

      Outstanding liveabord experience. The Whaleshark dive is right at the top, not only did it fulfill a tick on our bucket list, it was an experience of 30 odd minutes that normally only lasts 3 or 4. All dives for us offered something different and this is what we came to do – loved every minute. Diving always makes you hungry. The food on board was excellent at every mealtime and we were very well looked after. Diving makes you tired and our cabin was a comfortable, spacious and welcome retreat with perfect view.” Recommended for: The Diving and it’s very organised set-up, food and cabin comfort, friendliness of the staff and crew.

      Customer Review By Mark R, from: United Kingdom scored the MV Carpe Novo 10 out of 10; Review courtesy of Liveaboard.com, for more reviews and information click here: MV Carpe Novo.

      First liveaboard and a benchmark. We dove with over 15 manta rays and snorkeled with a whale shark. Bucket list experiences. On top of it, the crew did everything in their power to please us and the brand new boat is a beauty. I couldn’t ask more from my first liveaboard and believe that I will struggle to find anything this good elsewhere.” Recommended for: Great dive, food and people.
