First, this was the coolest Liveaboard experience because it was a women-only trip!! Let’s do more of these, please! Second, the crew and staff aboard the Turks & Caicos Ladies Trip were nothing short of amazing!! Special shout outs to Chef Miguel who created elegant and creative cuisine the entire week (cannot thank you enough!!), Amber who organizes every detail throughout the entire trip so that we just loved each day more than the previous one, and Ash who led dive briefings with knowledge and underwater was always checking on each buddy team to make sure we saw creatures big and small! Each of you truly went above and beyond in your respective roles!! Finally, the culture of TCI is so lovely and everyone we met greeted us with warmth and friendly smiles. A great getaway!!

What can I say?? Annie is a legend and this trip was far beyond my expectations. I obtained my advanced open water and deep dive certifications on this trip so it was a mix of training and purely recreational dives in a perfect balance of fun and growth. I had 6 dives before this trip and now I have 26! I've progressed leaps and bounds in my confidence and proficiencies as a diver. Even the boat chef said if he was choosing someone to train him, he'd pick Annie - and with good reason!! Her teaching style is as warm, patient, and personalized as can be. Her commitment to accessibility in diving is deeply sincere; she is a problem-solver who loves to help people with all kinds of bodies and brains crack the techniques that make diving fun and available to us. I'm so grateful to her and I know I'm not alone. The boat itself was also wonderful. It was so relaxing that I could trust Blue Crew to choose travel partners that prioritize safety and comfort along with fun. Can't wait for the next one!

Absolutely delightful! I was so grateful to be surrounded by so many powerful, brilliant women, each of whom were incredibly supportive, no matter their level of diving expertise. The crew of the Turks & Caicos Explorer II couldn’t have been better. From the moment we stepped on board until the time we disembarked, we were thoroughly cared for. Amber and Ashley, in particular, saw to our every need, and their warm hospitality made the entire trip feel extra-special. Every dive site offered something new to marvel at, from exquisitely detailed nudibranchs to curious young nurse sharks. Miguel, our chef, spoiled us with a wide variety of delicious meals and snacks, thoughtfully accommodating all dietary restrictions. Aside from a couple of nights with unavoidable (and sleep-challenging) ocean swells, the adventure was flawless from start to finish. I’m so grateful for the dive time, the shared expertise, and the unforgettable memories. I ended the trip a much, much better diver than I was at the start. If there are more ladies’ liveaboards in the future, I’ll be the first to sign up. Thank you for this amazing experience, Blue Crew! 💙

Just finished a week of tec diving with the crew at Blue Crew divers. The trip was fantastic and we completed some great dives including the Windjammer. Two members of our group completed their tec certifications through Tec 50. The instructors, Chris and Jose did an awesome job of herding all the cats! I would highly recommend Blue Crew for any and all dive travel or training. Also a big shout out the group at Technical Dive Services for keeping us supplied with all the breathing gases we needed for our training and technical dives.

Excellent trip! Extremely well organized down the smallest detail. Excellent diving. Dive operator was extremely friendly and professional in all respects. Boats were large, comfortable and well run. Dive sites were amazing! Walls, turtles, and other animals and even a wreck thrown in to satisfy an old rust head. Hotel room was clean and comfortable. Overall the hotel had a few minuses but that is because it is under new ownership and is under renovation and other changes. Would recommend this trip to anyone. Much appreciation to Chris and the Blue Crew for organizing and delivering a fantastic trip!
