The ample and delicious meals are prepared to suit guests culinary requirements, using fresh wholesome ingredients wherever possible. Meals are served at outdoor shaded tables. Snacks are provided between dives and a fully stocked bar is available for after diving enjoyment. There are indoor and outdoor areas for guests to relax and socialise, fitted with plush chairs and comfy sun loungers.

The itineraries include:

Tubbataha Reef, The Philippines. This UNESCO and ASEAN heritage site is known for its magnificent reefscapes, abundance of fish life and clear visibility. Accessible only from liveaboards, this area offers some of the best diving in the region.

Palau. One of the seven underwater wonders of the world, Palau reefs are colourful, lively and remote. Part of Micronesia, Palau is situated in the Pacific Ocean, over 800km east of Philippines. In 2009 Palau established the world’s first shark sanctuary. Several species of shark can be seen while diving in these waters.
