This was such an amazing experience! Truly a once in a lifetime experience having the opportunity to learn to dive and give back to the local environment. The accomodation was comfortable and food was good (though a little repetitive). One of the highlights was definitely being able to experience everything with the loveliest, kindest, open group of girls.

Our time with the reserve was INCREDIBLE! It was such a cool experience to become dive certified while learning about marine conservation. We got to identify wildlife, maintain growing coral, and help clean up the beaches. We even got to name newly identified turtles and manta rays! Such a unique experience with very friendly hosts.

Honestly had the best time! Getting my Open Water getting to dive with Mantas and Turtles and millions of awesome fish. Getting taught how to ID Turtles, Mantas and Fish as well, understanding the importance of this for the local community. Getting to help with Coral restoration on reef stars and, beach and underwater clean ups, and the importance of protecting our marine life. Getting to tour the beautiful island of the reserve on days off.

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.

Exceeded expectations. Food supplied 3x a day. Comfortable rooms provided. The staff were so lovely. Made so many good memories and will miss everyone involved on my trip. Truly worth every penny and I'm sad to have to leave.

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.
