Fantastic experience onboard and in the water.
Diving in the national park, we were the only liveaboard on the reef. Huge amounts of sea life and sharks at every dive. The staff were continuously attentive and responded to our every need, both with diving and on board. Excellent food and accommodation.

Fabulous experience
The Queen's Gardens are a great discovery. I absolutely recommend for divers who love sharks. This is the strong point of the cruise, the interaction with them is at its maximum. Besides that, biodiversity is not as abundant as one might imagine. The food on board is exceptional and divers are allowed a cocktail a day, great to celebrate the day's dives. (Too bad there's only one kind of soda available.) Hot towel at the end of the dives, the top comfort! The jacuzzi is functional. The dives are very well supervised and the briefings are clear. The guides are attentive to the divers' preferences and their difficulties. (Downside for the rental equipment a little outdated.) The crew is very smiling and takes care of the divers. That was awesome!!!
