Blue Seas Liveaboard Review - Expert Guide to Choosing Your Liveaboard

Russell Bowyer here. I've written this Blue Seas Liveaboard review to help you confidently choose and book the right liveaboard. 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.

Quick Blue Seas Liveaboard Review Navigation

For easy navigation to check my SDE Liveaboard Rating scores for the Blue Seas Liveaboard, use the light blue navigation links (e.g. "Boat Features 8/10"). Each category can score up to 10 points based on its onboard features. I've added these scores together to calculate the overall *Blue Seas Liveaboard SDE Liveaboard Rating of 58% shown below.

*How SDE Liveaboard Rating works for the Blue Seas Liveaboard: 58%

The SDE Liveaboard Rating for the Blue Seas Liveaboard works by taking the six individual SDE Liveaboard Rating scores, with each one being scored out of 10 and then adding them together. For the Blue Seas Liveaboard are ([Diving:8/10] + [Cabin:3/10] + [Boat:8/10] + [Dining:6/10] + [Drinks:8/10] + [Non-diver:2/10] = 35/60). This total is compared to the maximum possible score of 60/60 to turn it into an overall percentage – which for the Blue Seas Liveaboard is calculated as 35/60 = 58% SDE Liveaboard Rating.
