Great crew, many repeat guests for a reason
Great trip with beautiful dives, the team adjusted our itinerary a bit based on the situation at the time (for us it was for increasing whale shark sighting chances). The plan was clearly communicated to guests each day, and they left flexibility in the plans as needed and communicated so in advance. Our dive group was a bit big in my opinion (1 guide to 7 divers) but it may have been because there were some private guide bookings on our trip. Our trip also had almost half (or more) repeated guests, and I can understand why. Service is great, crew are friendly, the boat is comfortable, food was good (buffet style with many vegetarian options, custom items for dietary restrictions as requested, large fruit platters). The crew also helped ensure safety, including when guests weren't feeling well.

one of the top liveaboards in maldives!
Our week on CARPE NOVO was very, very nice- the Carpe Novo is a spacious ship with all you can ask for, well-maintained and cabins and facilities. The bathroom is huge, with a well-working hot water shower. Also the dhoni is one of the most spacious dhonis I've seen on Maldives liveaboards. the whole schedule and diving procedure were superb organised and worked out perfectly. The iterniary was flexibly adjusted in case there were too many boats around or e.g. cleaning stations were not active. The dive guides were professional, spoke perfect english and the briefings were held informative and interesting. Our diveguide RIO is a gem, laid back guiding and always friendly! He was also in charge as tour director and he did a super professional job. The food on board had a huge variety, and was tasty. The crew is really working hard. We will come back for sure, as I would rate this boat under my top 3 liveaboards I've been on (around 15 different ones). The only thing is, that next time I'd choose an upper or main deck cabin, and not a cabin on the back of the boat downstairs (sometimes you could smell the exhaust on the starboard side).

Manta Madness
It was a nice Trip to Baa-Atoll to see Mantas and we are lucky. We see them weile Ferdinand and cleaning on different places and it was always a pleasure.
We Even made a Sunset Dive with Stingrays ans Sharks at Alimatha. 10 Day Trips are allways the Best for my opinion.
