点评:We just got back from a week in Rangiroa staying at the Kia Ora, and three full days of diving with Blue Velvet. If you're planning to dive in Rangiroa, do not hesitate to book with Blue Velvet. Every aspect was seamless, professional, well organized, safe, with a great group of kind, fun, enthusiastic dive professionals that love what they are doing.
Booking via email was easy, concierge care and storage of personal dive equipment was organized and great, we never lifted a weighted BC with a cylinder our entire stay, and they kept all our gear clean and ready for the next dive, waiting on the zodiac for us upon arrival for each dive! The guides are awesome in every respect, understand the conditions and sites, and they prioritize safety always.
And of course the diving was phenomenal. To put it in perspective, on ONE dive alone, we encountered a manta ray, eagle rays, hundreds of sharks (literally), dolphins, turtles, and every tropical fish you can imagine, including huge moray eels and a stone fish. All amongst vast, healthy, colorful, large and dense hard coral formations.
Pro-Tip: unlike the US and Caribbean, they are diving 15 liter cylinders, and the weighting is in Kilos, thus trust what they tell you, you need in terms of weight. If I had not listened and followed my own math, I would have been WAY over-weighted.
Every team member was wonderful, and we just have to give a special thanks and shout-out to Vincent and Pauline!
翻译:我们刚从朗伊罗阿岛的Kia Ora酒店回来,在那里待了一周,还参加了Blue Velvet的三天潜水。如果您计划在朗伊罗阿岛潜水,请毫不犹豫地预订Blue Velvet。一切都非常顺畅、专业、有序、安全,还有一群友善、风趣、热情、热爱自己工作的潜水专业人士。
通过电子邮件预订非常方便,礼宾服务和个人潜水装备的存放安排得井井有条,非常棒。在整个住宿期间,我们从未用气瓶提过任何加重BC,他们把我们的所有装备都保持干净,为下一次潜水做好准备,每次潜水时,他们都会在充气艇上等着我们!导游们各方面都非常棒,了解当地的情况和地点,并且始终将安全放在首位。
当然,潜水体验也非常棒。客观地说,仅一次潜水,我们就遇到了蝠鲼、鹰鳐、数百条鲨鱼(真的有鲨鱼)、海豚、海龟,以及你能想到的所有热带鱼,包括巨大的海鳗和石鱼。所有这些都隐藏在广阔、健康、色彩斑斓、巨大而密集的硬珊瑚群之中。
专业提示:与美国和加勒比地区不同,他们潜水时使用15升的气瓶,重量以公斤为单位,所以请相信他们告诉你的,你需要多少重量就用多少。如果我没有听从他们的建议并按照自己的计算,我的体重肯定会超标很多。
每位团队成员都很棒,我们一定要特别感谢Vincent和Pauline!
