Boat to dive site was well organised and only two divers with one dive master (Wojciech) who gave us a good refresher and review, very beneficial and welcome after not diving for a few years. Two interesting dives with a lovely Thai lunch on deck between the two dives. a fast boat ride back and transfer to hotel.. Great day. Thanks”
