Great for snorkelers and new divers.
My wife and I hadn't been diving in several years. We took a pool refresher and after our first dive were back in the comfort zone. Friends with us only snorkeled and we all had a wonderful time.

Wonderful experience
We had a lovely time on the Manta Queen 1. The boat staff was just amazing, very cautious of our well-being. Helping us with our diving equipment, giving us some refreshing drinks just after the dives and special mention to the cook who was acting as a loving grandma with delicious meals. Also, a big thanks to Max, Fabien and Elsa for their diving advice and their helpfulness. We had a great time with them completing our Advanced Course. I recommend it a 100% !!

Rough wheather but great crew and amazing dives.
The weather was pretty rough but the crew manage to get us safely both in and out of the water. The two night dives were fantastic.

A truly memorable experience.
The diving was amazing, especially since I went before high season and so we had most of the sites completely to ourselves. I traveled alone and therefore was thrilled to have ended up with such a great set of people onboard. If we weren’t diving, we were laughing! And last but not least: the crew. I can not put into words how professional and friendly they were.

Comfortable, Budget liveaboard with great dives!
The liveaboard was extremely comfortable and clean. The crew was very caring, and the food was exceptional. They have everything you need onboard. We ended up doing 5 dives at Richelieu Rock in one day and skipped the Boon Sung wreck dive due to limited visibility there. I am so glad they took this decision as Richelieu Rock is a phenomenal dive site.
