“Great service, food, comfortable cabins. The cabin and common areas were comfortable and clean. The crew were very professional and did everything to make the trip memorable. Chef catered to everyone's request, I deeply appreciated it because I know it must be difficult to cook in a tiny galley and deliver 5-stars food including plating. Crew rinsed wetsuits with disinfectant and I liked the Dettol fresh clean smell. I wish they hung the wetsuit in airy place to dry after each dive but wetsuits were hung inside a shower room.”

Aliikai Voyage Liveaboard Review - Expert Guide to Choosing Your Liveaboard

Russell Bowyer here. I've written this Aliikai Voyage Liveaboard review to help you choose the right liveaboard with confidence. As a qualified diving instructor and Advanced BSAC Diver with 500+ dives worldwide, I've helped countless divers pick their perfect liveaboard - whether it's your first time liveaboard or you're an experienced diver seeking your next adventure.

Read more about Russell's diving experience

My diving experience spans cold-water UK drysuit dives, warm coral reefs in the Caribbean, the Red Sea, the Great Barrier Reef, and South Africa. As a former BSAC Diving Officer and diving instructor, I've taught many people to dive and taken a lot of the divers I taught on their first dive. I also used to organise and run dive trips in the UK, with one of my favourites being expeditions to the Farne Islands to dive with the seals. I've logged every type of dive: decompression stop deep dives, wreck dives, shark dives, night dives, drift dives, and everything in between. This hands-on experience means I know exactly what makes a great liveaboard experience, having dived from liveaboards myself and loved it. This is why I came up with the SDE Liveaboard Rating* to help you choose the best liveaboard for you.

SDE Liveaboard Rating – Underwater Photographer Features for the Aliikai Voyage Liveaboard

My score of the Aliikai Voyage liveaboard is 4/5 on the SDE Underwater Photographer Rating, as it has 4 of the 5 key photographer facilities (see below).

The Aliikai Voyage liveaboard has a dedicated camera station close to the dive deck, which lets you gear up quickly, check your housing and swap batteries or memory cards between dives. In addition, it offers a separate rinse tank for underwater cameras, which is crucial for protecting expensive camera equipment from scratches and damage.

Also a dedicated camera tank avoids any risks that can arise from sharing space with general diving gear, such as regulators, wetsuits, and heavy fins to avoid contamitation from sand, salt, debris and any chemicals. What’s more, it provides dedicated charging stations for cameras, strobes, torches and laptops so your batteries are always topped up and ready for your next dive.

You’ll also find it has free WiFi internet onboard, which makes it easier to back up RAW files to the cloud and share images with friends and family while you are at sea.

Customer review from Liveaboard.com

“Wonderful liveaboard experience on this beautiful boat with super friendly and hospitable crew. My daughter (19 yo) and I had a wonderful (Mommy-Daughter) one-week stay on board The Aliikai together with 6 other pairs of travellers. We did not know the other travellers before, but ended up enjoying each other's company and our time together tremendously - bonded by a common love for the ocean, diving and/or snorkelling. The cruise director Eko and his super friendly, attentive, and hospitable crew took such wonderful care of us, always going the extra mile to make our time on board special and memorable. Everything you needed would appear right in front of you before you even had to ask - food, drinks, snacks, towels, sunscreen, hats etc. Service was impeccable and you feel super pampered during the entire stay. Meals were freshly prepared and tasty, and of good variety - ranging from hearty mains to delightful treats, desserts and light bites, asian and western. I also especially appreciated Eko's meticulous planning, adjusting our daily routes and activities in response to the weather, so that we could enjoy as many sunny days as possible during the week (eg. adjusting our itinerary by sailing away from rainy areas, and coming back to them on a sunny day). The marine diversity and health of Raja Ampat really lived up to its reputation - diving here is better suited for intermediate to advanced divers given the stronger currents; but the dive masters on board took good care of us and made us feel safe.”

Recommended for: Super friendly, attentive, and hospitable crew. Clean & comfortable rooms, spacious areas and well-maintained facilities. Itinerary planning & activities (Diving/ Snorkeling/ Nature Hikes/ Water Sports).
