The best 8 days!!
I had an absolutely amazing time on this wliveaboard!! It was my first time doing one and I had the best time ever. The crew as fantastic!! The captain, the dive guides, the cook, and Jenny the purser were all amazing!! They were so friendly and welcoming! The food was also really good! As for the diving, 5 dives a day was a lot so we stayed pretty busy. But there was no pressure to go on every single dive, so I did sit a few out here & there throughout the week. Overall, I had an amazing 8 days and I can’t wait to do another one!

GREAT SAFE VERY WELL RUN DIVING OPERATION
In spite of losing 2 days due to stormy weather we had a great trip with 4 days diving. Enjoyed all the dives because its what I love doing, we had very close encounter with very friendly and large eagle ray,saw turtles every day,did 2 night dives and saw many nurse sharks night hunting so in spite of losing bit of time saw plenty!

Had the best dive trip and can't wait to go out with them on another trip!
Couldn't have asked for a better experience for my first liveaboard. The crew were wonderful, helpful and made the trip amazing. The food was exceptional. The boat was comfortable and didn't lack for anything.

the best diving trip
for me, it was an incredible experience, it was so good i stayed a second week, there is no word to describe how i felt, spending all that time with all those fish, i am used to dive in the St-Lawrence river in Ontario (eastern Canada) its great, but water is cold, and there is never as much life as what we saw, the crew was great, and knew very well everything about every locations, but for me the best part was the night dive at french cay, with the nurse sharks...i would go back anytime for me, that was the very best thing i have ever done in my entire life...im already planning to go back, either to the same spot or to another spot, it was great

This is my 3rd time on the Turks and Caicos Explorer II and won't be my last.
The diving is wonderful with healthy reefs and lots of interesting sites to dive. The staff are fun and there were tons of laughs everyday. In the past years, we had dive masters that would wear tutus on this boat and have special critters to point out. This time was different but just as enjoyable. We had a couple amazing dive masters that enjoyed educating us on the underwater life and showing us new creatures to love. (new creature this trip for me was the conchfish-small cardinal fish that has a symbiotic relationship with the conch) I love the small stuff as much as the big stuff. They have an amazing night dive that you just jump in and hover at about 35-40 feet and watch the show--reef and nurse sharks are hunting and feeding. We stayed right under the boat for the whole dive.

Top Notch Experience!
The crew was awesome and the diving was lively! Jo kept things interesting with her hilarious, yet informative dive briefings. Never needed for anything as the crew's top priorities were that we had the best experience possible and that we always had what was needed. Highly recommend!

good organisation
WE love the hot shower after each dives and hot towells after night dives, it's a first classe service, everything was nice except the last day when we go back to the Marina at 9.00 am doing nothing to 4.00 pm, the crew reserve a taxi for us at this time to go shopping and diner outside, we went back to the boat at 8h30 pm. WE would like to be advise before because in fact it's a 6 days cruise and not 7, it means nothing to spend this friday on the boat doing nothing.
