Customer review from Liveaboard.com
“Great fun & enjoyable time on this liveaboard ! Great trip, with good dive briefings & guidance by dive masters. The Mantas, moray eels, whale sharks & nurse shark life was amazing😃. Would have preferred that we spent only one night back at the harbour in Male’ instead of the two consecutive nights, in another area of the atolls.”
Recommended for: The excellent boat & dining room crew. Diving with 30+ Mantas - insane fun 😃. The comfortable room.
