Luxury Liveaboards

Some divers live for maximum time underwater, so dedicated they'd happily sleep on the dive deck for early morning dives. On the flip side, many savor luxury during surface intervals - think on-deck HD movie experiences, bars stocked with premium drinks, indulgent spa treatments, and gourmet cuisine crafted from the freshest ingredients. For most, a blend of both worlds is the dream. Let's explore the most opulent liveaboards sailing today, offering divine onboard comforts and extraordinary diving adventures

Will select Emperor Serenity again

This was my and my girlfriend's first liveaboard experience and I couldn't have selected a better choice than Emperor Serenity. All staff members were very professional, all well behaved and safety first approach to things.
Our guide through the dives was Catalina and she was very experienced, nice, energetic throughout the dives and understand everyone's need and limits.
Over all great experience and we can't thank enough from all of the Emperor Serenity team for making our dream of diving in Maldives come true.

Diving with the Agressor in Galapagos

Guides were great and helpful. The food wasn’t as good as other Agressor boats that I have been on, although in Galapagos some food items might be harder to get. Overall would recommend diving in the Galapagos to see many unique things underwater. They do have Starlink Internet access for the whole trip.
