Comments Good. Great crew, wonderful boat, great diving, great accommodations, and very cooperative underwater critters. Couldn't have been better.

Bad. At eleven nights, the trip was much too short. Could have spent a month there...

UW Photo Comments Tons of room, with chargers, and supplies if needed. E-6 processing. Monty very helpful with anything needed. Michelle, Monty and crew did a fabulous job. Bilikiki and her sister ship Spirit of the Solomons are unique in their wonderful, attentive service. These two tie as the best dive operations anywhere...
