点评:Mike Ball’s operation is top notch! They take safety to the top level - probably the safest liveaboard I’ve ever been on. The diving is exceptional: the reefs have healthy corals and lively and diverse fish population. The crew is great! They are attentive and friendly. The food is delicious.
To address previous comments: the dive deck does get busy, but nothing that can’t be handled with a bit of patience and coordination with your deck neighbours.
We did a stop at an island (not Lizard) to visit, and I have to say that most of us on board were happy for the short break! 😉 (well, our ears were relieved!)
We are rescue qualified divers, meaning we are qualified to dive and have dived deep, but in this trip, we rarely went below 60’ (20 m), and spent most of our time around 40’ to 20’ deep, which is where you find the best diving. The guides were available, and generally had 3-4 people with them. BUT when we dove Steve’s Bommie, they used little markers to identify stonefish.
翻译:迈克·鲍尔的船宿体验堪称一流!他们将安全放在首位——这可能是我经历过的最安全的船宿潜水之旅。潜水体验也棒极了:珊瑚礁拥有健康的珊瑚和生机勃勃、种类繁多的鱼类。船员们也很棒!他们热情周到,待人友善。食物也美味可口。
针对之前的评论:潜水甲板确实会比较拥挤,但只要稍加耐心,并与甲板上的其他人协调配合,就能轻松应对。
我们停靠在一个岛屿(不是蜥蜴岛)参观,不得不说,船上的大多数人都很享受这次短暂的休息!😉(好吧,其实是耳朵终于可以放松一下了!)
我们是救援潜水员,这意味着我们有资格潜水,也曾进行过深潜,但在这次旅行中,我们很少潜到60英尺(20米)以下,大部分时间都在40英尺到20英尺的深度范围内活动,而这正是最佳潜水深度。潜水向导随时待命,通常每位向导带领3-4位潜水员。但是,当我们潜入史蒂夫礁时,他们用小标记来识别石头鱼。
