Embark on an unparalleled luxury diving adventure aboard the yacht, complete with an upper deck Jacuzzi for ultimate relaxation. Catering to both avid divers and leisure seekers, this vessel promises a memorable experience with its array of amenities and activities.

Boat Interior and Exterior
The yacht boasts 10 elegantly designed cabins, accommodating 20 passengers. Each cabin features air-conditioning, a private bathroom, a hairdryer, a minibar, and a TV for your comfort. The dining area on the upper deck offers stunning views and serves a variety of dishes from Asian, Indian, Maldivian, and European cuisines, prepared by skilled chef. The sun deck invites relaxation with its sun loungers, lounge area equipped with a giant screen, music, and bar, and a Jacuzzi. Additionally, an SPA center is available for massages upon request.

Dive Deck
The "Ulua Hunter" diving dhoni, equipped with diving and fishing gear, along with a dinghy for beach landings, ensures a seamless diving experience. With a low diver-to-guide ratio of 5:1, your safety and quality of scuba diving are guaranteed. Rental equipment for snorkeling and diving is available onboard.

Safety
The yacht is fully equipped with essential safety features, including fire alarm systems, smoke detectors, an oxygen kit, and first aid kits, ensuring a secure voyage.

Activities for Non-Divers
For guests not participating in diving, we offer 2 jet skis, a stand-up paddleboard, snorkeling, and fishing gear, providing diverse options for entertainment and exploration.

When to Go
The best time for diving in the Maldives is from November to May, with calm seas and visibility exceeding 15-20 meters. The water temperature remains a pleasant 26-29°C (78.8F - 84.2F) throughout the year. For those aiming to encounter mantas, the Manta Season from May to December in Hanifaru Bay, Baa Atoll, is the perfect period to witness hundreds of manta rays and whale sharks congregating in the area
