Private shark shoot incredible! Literally one inch from a shark gave me goosebumps.
Kerry Sullivan - New Zealand
The diving was superb but it was the flawless dive deck that made multiple dives for me so enjoyable.
Davide Perini - Italy
The crew is what made a beautiful itinerary. Massive coral formations, feeding frenzy for the shark attractions. All sites were amazing!
Bougainville delivers
From the dive deck - Jelle Kolet
Fair weather and calm seas allowed us to visit the beautiful reefs out in the Coral Sea. Bougainville reef delivered with multiple hammerheads at Crystal Plateau. Dungeons and Dragons was an absolute favourite and an exploratory drift produced an amazing dive past cascading corals down towering bommies. The private shark shoot at North horn on Osprey reef was one of the best yet.

Excitement Below and Above the Waves
From the dive deck - Kerrin Jones
The trip got off to a great start, especially for one young couple, with an underwater proposal at the Clam Beds. Osprey Reef provided a fantastic dive along North Horn’s West Wall. Above water, a manta ray was seen swimming alongside Spoilsport at Coral Kingdom, and guests watched a large pod of spinner dolphins cruising the area near Steve’s Bommie.

Mark Knight - United States
This is our 4th trip with Mike Ball each one has met or exceeded our expectations.
Sandrine Halbout - France
Kindness of the crew, the quality of the meals, the shark feed made an exceptional cruise.
See Forever & giant turtles
From the dive deck - Jelle Kolet
Rough seas prevented Spoilsport from spending 2 days on Osprey reef, but the 1 day there was nothing less than superb. Over 40 meters visibility at False Entrance and on the Western Wall had divers awestruck. Reef sharks were out in force. Massive green & loggerhead turtles were seen on the night dives at Snake pit & Gotham city.
