Diving at its best. Best of + Meemu. We tried to find Hammerheads, but we are not lucky. That´s the ocean.
I have been diving with this Boat for several times. It is always a verry pleasent time. The Cabins have been refreshed with new paintings on the Wall. You have clips with the Cabine names for the daily Dive towels. Enough space to dry you swim and dive suits. Especially the DiveDoni provides a lot of space and comfort for the divers, even when its full booked.
I like to thank the whole Team of the Dhoni and Boat for this nice Dive Trip. Special Thanks to the new Cook and the new Barman and my Dive Guide. I always like the longer Trips, because there are more options to chose the Dive sites if there is more trafic at one place. I allready booked my next trip and look forward to stay at maldives.

Every Dive is a good Dive…
I had a great time on this trip. The visibility on this trip in the South of Male region was very good, as we reached the Northern Atolls it‘s getting really bad. We were not lucky at the Hanifaru Bay, but this can happen… one year before it was perfect…there are a lot of other places to see mantas on this trip.
Have you ever noticed the sparkling plankton while jumping into the water at the beginning of the dive? This was always very special in the Maldives in August.
The crew, the dive guides are always friendly and helpful. Thank you all for this amazing time…

Always one of the best times in my year…
This was my 10th Safari with the Carpe Diem Fleet and I had a lot of great moments underwater and on the boat. The Maldives, for me, are one of the most beautiful regions of the world. I love to sit on the backside of the boat while having a great meal and talking with other divers from all over the world about our latest experience …. To see all the sandbanks, lagoons and resort islands passing by….and have always good dives in between. The dive dhoni from Carpe Novo is one of the biggest I have ever seen and it makes diving really comfortable. I will come back soon….
