Separate Camera Table w/ Compressed Air. Divemasters very helpful w/ cameras both in and out of water. Photo Pros gave good advice when asked. |

Accomodations as always on a liveaboard, were tight, but not claustrophobic. Not as many large animals as we expected, but of course that can vary from trip to trip. Rorqual was steady considering the seas (4-6 feet) that we were in, but there definitely is rock and roll as in any other small (less than 100 feet length) vessel. As far as we know, there was only one passenger who got even queasy the whole time. Neither of us used any antiseasick medications or bands nor did we need them. The shining star of the whole voyage was the crew...there was not anything that was not provided. The Captain made it clear before we left the pier that if anything was wrong or needed, we should tell the crew so that they could address/correct it. This policy was the truth. The crew was great and we are already planning our next trip. |
