“This staff and crew put you at the ultimate comfort level! The diving experience is without equal. Arenui’s select dive masters ensure that you miss nothing regardless of whether you have made 50 or 5,000 dives. This has to be the very best way to see the Pacific from the diver’s perspective. The crew – Wonderful staff all around! Ali, my divemaster, was exceptional, displayed warm enthusiasm and superior knowledge, as did all of the crew and staff. Jerry and Debbie are the greatest! The food – gourmet all the way!! And to do it with such a small galley!”

Rita
“Not only were the dive sites each beautiful in their own right and the dive masters diligent at finding so many marine animals, the level of service was outstanding. Debbie and Jerry noticed that I was having trouble diving. They assessed that I was over weighted and my back inflated BCD wasn’t appropriate for me. I was used to struggling, figuring it was my diving ability. They got it all changed around and I dove very comfortably! Many thanks to Debbie and Jerry for their knowledge and generous caring! The whole crew was happy, professional and helpful every day! A warm and beautiful experience!”
