Trip highlights:
ULYSSES: Fabulous fabulous dive! All the usual suspects on a really super dive site even through a knackered mask. But the really cool bit was the dolphins passing by at arms’ length on the way off the wreck to do our safety stop. And when I say close, I mean really close! Well done Whirlwind, you did us proud there!
JACKFISH ALLEY: Superb light and lengthy wall/reef teeming with various inhabitants. Thoroughly recommended.
GORDON REEF: Now that is what I call a drift dive! Felt like I could really Fly!
Ditto the above – haven’t done a drift like that for a long time!

THE BOAT:
Fantastic! Wish I had one back home!
Fantastic, exceeded expectations
Very good, comfortable and very relaxing
Great, everything was just as we hoped it would be.
First class liveaboard with great facilities. Spacious and comfortable. Would definitely return.
Second time on the Whirlwind, can’t wait to come back a third time to see Mr Mahgob in 2012!!!!!
THE CREW AND DIVE GUIDES.
Very helpful and informative of the dives during the briefings and the crew can’t help you enough – they really work hard to ensure your holiday is enjoyed at it’s best. See you next year J
The guides D and Yasser were the best on any liveaboard I have been on. Very informative and safe diving was there priority.
Mr Magoo!!! He’s mad but made the trip for me. Every girl loves a bit of special attention even if she knows there will be another next week. He’s lovely!
Mr. Magoo.... He is a little crazy but gave everyone a little mad attention, enough to make us all smile and laugh.... so good on holiday!
The crew was friendly, helpful, attentive and proactive. It makes diving from this boat a real fun and easy experience. D and Yasser were really great at making sure we knew what we were doing and that everybody was back safe and sound.
My 1st liveaboard trip and probably the most junior diver on the trip but always felt comfortable, safe and well briefed. Crew and guides were friendly, relaxed and went out of their way to be helpful.
Very helpful, friendly and informative. I felt very welcome and looked after.
Guides were very knowledgeable and gave good and informative briefings. The crew were wonderful. They looked after us very well and always had a smile. Their constant antics kept us amused for the whole trip.
The local knowledge of both guides shone through both above and below the water: first class. In particular, their ‘avoid nagging’ approach ensured a safe yet relaxed holiday diving experience. More broadly, the crew were absolutely top notch: best on any diving operation I have encountered. Friendly, efficient and exceedingly helpful, Whirlwind is lucky to have them.
THE FOOD
As usual, top class.
Delicious! As good as you would get in a top notch restaurant!
Very nice food, well balanced for hungry divers.
Lovely!! I really shouldn’t eat so much!!!
Food was excellent and plentiful and salon staff and chefs deserve special praise – it can’t be easy catering for so many different tastes all the time.
Top Class 5* food...can we take the chef home and Mr Mahgob!!!!
