The safety precautions were carefully informed before the trip, and they were also very humorous. The staff were very kind and the service was very good. It was a great experience! !

I definitely recommend taking the helicopter. It's really beautiful. I'm really happy to be able to see it with my own eyes. 10 minutes is enough to satisfy you. I've scuba dived a few times, but it's a very short experience and it's over in the blink of an eye, and it's almost the same as snorkeling, but the staff are very kind and nice. I went at the end of October, and the sea felt quite cold, and it was too cold without the sun. It's also quite cold inside the boat, so a jacket is a must. Don't expect lunch. The kindness of the staff and the helicopter made it a great memory overall! Thank you

If you like to do activities in the water, this is the right company to choose. Before and after the meeting, we went to two different reef groups where you can go snorkeling. Fortunately, I bought a package at the last minute that included an entry-level deep dive and a 10-minute helicopter ride, which was a great value.
