5.0/ 5

It is the second time I have dived and sailed with them. The first was only 15 years ago. This time diving with my wife and children (14 and 16 years old). The same quality, professionalism, friendliness and dedication as 15 years ago. It is very difficult to keep the level so high. Congratulations on the continued efforts of the entire crew. – viaGoogle

5.0/ 5

From the moment I checked in at the office to the moment I departed Spoilsport, everything was top notch! The staff is great, the boat is built for liveaboard diving and the whole Coral Sea and Cod Hole experience was exactly the SCUBA escape I was looking for. Everyone was professional, friendly and they know their stuff. The boat is very comfortable and became my home away from home for the week. You are given the freedom to dive at your own pace, whether with your buddy or with a guide, anything you need is just an ask away and you will definitely not suffer from lack of food. Such a great place to get away from it all with no contact with the outside world and no one else in sight. Exactly how I wanted to spend my New Years. The only bad part of the trip was leaving after it was all over. I miss the boat!

Thank you so much Trevor, Russel, Kristy, Kerrin, June, Annabelle, Marita, Rodrigo, Carly, Guido, Jack, Jamie and Maddy! – via google

5.0/ 5

We just did a 4 day expedition with this company. Captain Peter and cruise director Marita were wonderful. We had a bit of a problem when a plane crash landed at Lizard Island and we were blocked from flying out. They kept us informed and drove us by boat 5 hours away to Cooktown and had planes meet us there. They did a great job making sure everyone got their flights sorted out.
The dive trip was great for a younger crowd. We usually do luxury 10-12 passengers trip’s versus the 24 passengers on this. The meals were good and plentiful. The crew were all professional and helpful. The dives are not guided but were fairly easy to manage. We made new friends and had a great time – via google

I’ve dived with Mike Ball twice now, once to see Minke whales, and the second time for the green turtle mating season. Both times were amazing, they took us to the most beautiful spots, and the staff is incredible, competent and always friendly – via google

5.0/ 5

Absolutely excellent trip! The Mike Ball team are all fabulous – they make the trip both laid back and enjoyable, but are also top notch when it comes to safety and technical stuff. Kerren the trip director in particular was terrific. He ran great briefings every day on each dive and the general ‘goings on’ of the trip. The food was really great – (well done Nat). Thanks to Camille for my Nitrox course – great instructor. I’ll be back soon!! – via google

5.0/ 5

We went for the 4night coral sea expedition and it was absolutely beyond our expectation!

Vessel: this tween-hulled vessel is extremely well-maintained. We stayed in the premium queen cabin which was clean and spacious. The view from windows was so beautiful. There are plenty of space for guests to hang around – both AC indoors and warm outdoor area!

Diving: we were lucky enough to follow the proposed itinerary and sailed all the way to osprey reef. We had 70+ meters visibility at Admiralty Anchor which was UNREAL!!! The water was so pristine and full of marine life!! The shark feed at North horn was also very exciting and worth a life-time memory. We did 12 dives in total.

Food: three meals a day plus continental breakfast (before cooked brekkie) and afternoon tea were all carefully prepared and offered a range of variety. We were so grateful for such good food on the ocean. There is even a coffee machine which you can help yourself for free!

Dive/safety briefing: Kristy was super precessional and made sure instructions were accurate and clear. Love the drawing on the whiteboard before each dive!

Other highlights: the complimentary photos and videos were of extremely high quality (we can’t believe this is the standard of free stuff). Ship shop offered lots of souvenirs to choose from. The boat party during the last night on board was super fun!!

Overall: the whole trip was highly organized thanks to a wonderful crew. Will definitely come back for other trips with Mike Ball. – via google

5.0/ 5

I had an excellent liveaboard expedition on the Spoilsport, travelling out to the Coral Sea. The staff were very friendly, and knowledgeable. They managed the risks of diving on coral reefs very well. I dived 13 dives over 3 days and at no time did I feel that I was being put at risk or that there were any problems. Very professional organization, good communications. Excellent food on board the Spoilsport as well. I was very pleased to be on this trip, and would definitely consider Mike Ball Dive Expeditions for a future liveaboard dive trip. – via google
