点评:Blue Velvet made our Rangiroa trip a great one. My wife and I dove with them from March 23–30, averaging about two dives a day, and overall we had a fantastic experience.
The dive masters were excellent, especially Renan and JoAnna. They were knowledgeable, professional, and helped make the entire week memorable. We always felt well guided and in good hands. The Blue Velvet desk staff at our hotel, Marangie and Jutine, were also absolutely delightful and tremendously helpful. They managed our scheduling smoothly and made everything easy from day to day.
The diving itself was outstanding. During the trip we saw hammerheads, a tiger shark, dolphins, and an amazing reef. We were even able to complete a course for PE-40 certification, which was a great added experience and gave us the chance to dive deeper.
For constructive criticism, I do think it would help if Blue Velvet offered more variety in dive locations beyond the usual pass dives. The pass dives are fantastic, but over the course of a week, adding a few more alternative sites would make the experience even better.
My other small disappointment was that my wife was charged after dropping a weight belt during her back roll entry off the zodiac. Yes, technically it was her fault, and in hindsight the belt probably should have been exchanged because it was older and did not lock especially well. Still, after spending thousands of dollars on diving during the trip, that extra charge felt a little petty.
Overall, though, Blue Velvet is a very strong operation with excellent staff, skilled dive masters, and access to some truly incredible diving. We would absolutely remember this trip fondly.
翻译:Blue Velvet 让我们的朗伊罗阿岛之旅变得无比精彩。我和妻子于 3 月 23 日至 30 日期间跟随他们潜水,平均每天两次,总体来说体验非常棒。
潜水长们都很出色,尤其是 Renan 和 JoAnna。他们知识渊博、专业敬业,让整个一周都令人难忘。我们始终感到有人指导,一切都在掌控之中。Blue Velvet 在我们酒店的前台工作人员 Marangie 和 Jutine 也非常热情友好,提供了极大的帮助。她们安排得井井有条,让每天的行程都轻松无忧。
潜水本身也精彩绝伦。旅途中,我们看到了锤头鲨、虎鲨、海豚和令人惊叹的珊瑚礁。我们甚至还完成了 PE-40 认证课程,这真是一次很棒的额外体验,也让我们有机会潜得更深。
如果要提一些建设性的意见,我认为 Blue Velvet 如果能提供更多种类的潜点,而不仅仅是常规的通行证潜水点,那就更好了。潜点选择很棒,但如果一周的时间里能增加一些其他潜点,体验会更完美。
另一个让我略感失望的地方是,我妻子在从橡皮艇上翻滚入水时,不小心掉了一条配重带,结果被收取了费用。没错,严格来说这是她的错,事后想想,那条配重带可能应该换一条,因为它比较旧,而且锁扣也不太牢固。不过,考虑到这次旅行我们在潜水方面已经花费了数千美元,这点额外的费用感觉有点小题大做。
总的来说,蓝丝绒潜水中心运营得非常出色,员工素质高,潜水长技术精湛,而且能体验到一些真正令人惊叹的潜水点。我们一定会对这次旅行留下美好的回忆。
