Comfortable Italian liveaboard
Very comfortable boat to dive in the Maldives. The diving team is partly Italian and French (3 to 4 guides for the whole boat). Food is Italian, it's not really buffet style as there is a set menu, but it is very good. Meals are served outside on a very large table (sometimes it's windy, or sunny, or raining, sometimes the boat is travelling and it is very noisy outside, some people like it, some don't ...). The cabins are huge and beds are really great. The A/C is loud and not efficient. You can't really control the temperature or the power (no remote control, and no personal A/C unit in the cabin). Nitrox percentage is not very high (26-28 %). The local boat crew are very nice and very hard working. The Sri Lankan chef is very friendly and does an amazing job. Most guests are Italians, so if you are coming on your own and you don't speak Italian, you may not enjoy the trip so much. The diving was good in the South of the Maldives with channel dives with pelagics and a manta cleaning station in Addu atoll.

Excellent diving experience
It’s an Excellent diving experience. We were lucky to see whales sharks, several mantas came to our boat ‘dancing‘. We were so exciting! And the crew and dive directors are very nice

Seafari should have a better management
Globally good trip but started horribly as it was disagreement between one of the manager and the captain of the boat and his crew who refused to leave the harbour. We stayed 2 full days on the harbour and wait till the manager leaves and arrives another manager to replace him. After this episode, globally it was ok but started very badly.
