It was a truly amazing experience, being taught by locals both how to dive and the actions they are taking to preserve their slice of heaven, and having the opportunity to help a little with that was a rare experience. Absolutely everyone made this an amazing experience, kind, friendly and incredibly educational.

This was one of the best experiences of my life. I had the chance to learn about marine conservation, get my diving certification, and connect with people who have the same ideas and dreams as me. The host was amazing and always very caring. The whole team was present all the time and really supportive. They are people I will truly miss — they even made me cry when I said goodbye. I recommend this experience a million times, and I'm sure I will come back one day.

This is my first time doing anything like this, and it was fantastic! The whole team at the reserve and Sanctum Dive were very welcoming and friendly. Learning to dive has definitely been something I've wanted to do for a long time and doing it there was amazing. The fact that you then use it to help promote marine conservation and scientific research just adds to the experience. I have gained some incredible memories and even better friends! If you are even half considering this, even for a second, jump on this opportunity!

This trip was the best one I've had so far and expanded my understanding about how to help the marine environment and how to treat wild marine animals. The host was very kind, helpful, and friendly. I felt welcomed and well taken care of. This trip is highly recommended if you love the ocean and enjoy working towards a better future for the next generations. The people I met were the best group of strangers I've ever met and I'm so happy I could take part in this with them.

I had the best week of my life at the reserve. Everyone is so so lovely specifically Gilang, Fa'iz and Wildan who we worked closely with. They looked after us so well and were so good and patient with teaching us. The work we did out there was so rewarding and so much fun. I will definitely be returning to the reserve and would recommend to anyone!!!!!

This was my first ever volunteering program and I'm not lying when I say that the bar is now set HIGH. The two weeks in the reserve didn't feel like working, it felt like home. The staff from the reserve was the best and they always ensured that we would have the best time. I learned so much from all of them. I was sad to leave. I can't wait to go back and work with them again! :)

I worked with the reserve and sanctum dive on both a group conservation project and to gain my open water diving qualification. Both were amazing opportunities that I'm incredibly grateful to have had the chance to participate in. The staff are so friendly and make you feel welcome every step of the way, as well as being incredibly patient with everyone's learning paces. It's clear that they all really care about the health of the ocean and it's inhabitants and I'm very lucky to have had the chance to take part in the work that they were doing and to meet so many amazing people along the way.
