点评:This boat and its crew are very special. The boat itself is beautiful and so was our experience from start to finish. When we booked this boat last year, we were nervous due to a lack of reviews and the high price tag. After meeting with a representative of their staff, we decided to go for it. We couldn’t have been happier with the outcome. We went as new divers (me with 25 dives under my belt, my spouse with even fewer), and the cruise director Eko was also our dive guide. He chose dive sites and times that accommodated our experience level, and every single dive (save one) was breathtaking and incredible. The only dive we didn’t like was one that was near a beach known for blacktip reef sharks, and people being predictably the worst, have ruined it with trash and feeding the animals for their instagram drone shot of them swimming with sharks. Grrr. Anyway—the activities were a nice blend of diving and non-diving, so it’s a great boat to choose if not everyone in your party dives or if you’re looking for an experience that’s not just your typical dive, eat, sleep, repeat liveaboard experience. We found the crew very accommodating and every need was taken care of at every turn. The food was fantastic, a much nicer culinary experience than the other liveaboards we have done. Every dive we were welcomed back warmly with fresh towels and a drink, sometimes a ginger tea, sometimes a fresh fruit smoothie, always something lovely. Nitrox is standard on the boat for those who are certified. Wi-Fi was very spotty for our Raja Ampat sailing; be prepared to unplug and truly soak in your amazing surroundings.
We loved our experience so much, we are going back next year.
翻译:这艘船和船员都非常特别。船本身就很漂亮,我们的体验也从头到尾都非常棒。去年预订这艘船的时候,因为评价不多,价格又高,我们还有些忐忑。不过在和他们的工作人员见面之后,我们决定试一试。结果真是太棒了,我们非常满意。我们都是潜水新手(我潜水25次,我配偶潜水次数更少),游轮总监Eko同时也是我们的潜水向导。他根据我们的经验水平选择了合适的潜点和时间,除了其中一次之外,每一次潜水都令人叹为观止。唯一一次不太满意的潜水是在一处以黑鳍礁鲨闻名的海滩附近,不出所料,有些人为了在Instagram上发布自己和鲨鱼一起游泳的照片,到处乱扔垃圾,还喂食鲨鱼,真是太糟糕了。总之,船上的活动安排得恰到好处,既有潜水也有非潜水活动,所以如果您同行的人并非人人都会潜水,或者您想体验一下不同于传统潜水、吃饭、睡觉、循环往复的船宿之旅,那么这艘船绝对是您的理想之选。我们觉得船员们非常热情周到,我们提出的每一个需求都得到了满足。食物也棒极了,比我们之前体验过的其他船宿之旅都要美味得多。每次潜水回来,我们都会收到热情的欢迎,服务员会递上干净的毛巾和饮品,有时是姜茶,有时是鲜榨水果冰沙,总是很贴心。对于持有潜水证的人来说,船上提供高氧潜水。我们在拉贾安帕特群岛航行期间,Wi-Fi信号不太稳定;所以,请做好放下电子设备、尽情享受周围美景的准备吧。
我们非常喜欢这次体验,明年还会再去。
