Comments	This was a phenomenal experience, so varied in everything...marine life, bottom profile, dive conditions, depth. The staff went beyond in friendliness, food, and helpfulness. Dive masters were great. Some dives, we were allowed take space based on NDL and tank depletion. They allowed guests to make dive site requests. The cabins were spacious, clean, and very comfortable. After a dive, a diver with skin rash was immediately & appropriately cared for including Oxygen. My health emergency was cellulitis, for which the captain brought me to hospital, via small speedboat, and helped me get appropriate care & antibiotics. Then brought me back to boat, so next day I could continue diving. The staff wore masks. After the first couple days, the guests could decide to wear them or not.
