This liveaboard has a special stabilizer system - 15 tons of additional weight at the deepest point of the ship to prevent rolling and seasickness. Experienced German and English-speaking guides and diving instructors (PADI, SSI, and RAID). There is a very spacious lounge area on the top deck of the boat with a shaded part and cushioned sun loungers. The luxury cabin has a private sun deck.

Boat Interior
10 cabins can accommodate 20 divers and their fellow travelers. This boat can offer to stay at one of the upper deck cabins. This can be a double bed cabin, twin room to share with another diver, or luxury cabin featured with a private sundeck. On the lower deck, there are two doubles and five twin bed cabins. The salon is big and has cozy soft sofas. It has a TV and  DVD, you can play board games with other guests on a boat. The sundeck is perfect to relax after dives or in between and enjoy the gorgeous view. The shaded area has tables and chairs and several sun loungers

Dive Deck
Two diving dhonies equipped with all might be needed for comfortable diving. Divers can use storage boxes for their gear. Liveaboard does not provide any air fills, all fills are nitrox fills.

Safety
Safety is always important. The crew team trained to manage emergency situations and now first aid. There are life vests and emergency rafts on board, also firefighting equipment in each cabin

Itinerary
the boat mostly offers diving on central atolls of the Maldives. It's one of the most known destinations for diving in this country. You will have a chance to meet giant mantas, observe sharks, trevally, snappers, groupers. Channel diving is one of the main features of this destination. You have to be ready for strong currents. Also, you may explore drop offs, reefs, and caves.

When to go
Diving in the Maldives is possible all year round. The best conditions are from December to May, plenty of plankton bring to Maldives lots of fish and pelagics. In Summer months weather conditions sometimes can be rough for diving

Good value for moneyVerified review

Overall good old boat with enough space. Sometimes termites in certain cabins. Dhoni wasn‘t appropriate (not enough space, slippery, technical problems) Good food with homemade bread (didn‘t like the artificial desserts). Good choice of dive spots, safe briefings, 2 experienced guides. Good staff that is motivated. German manager on board who solves every problem. Guests mostly german speaking.
