Customer Review
”Best liveaboard experience so far. I have been on about 4 other liveaboards. Iron diver award for myself and wife. Hawksbill turtle that was like a pet with great photos from Virginia. Virginia was a fantastic photographer. We told her up front that we were buying the photos. This is the first trip I did not bring an underwater camera (900 dives) because I wanted lots of photos of my wife and I. The photos that were extra were just full of great photos of us. A special thanks to her.” Recommended for: Dining/briefing room. Crew. Cabins.
