The steel-hulled Solomons Master (formerly Truk Master) is large and spacious, offering individual set-up stations, numerous charging points, and ample storage space. Guests can enjoy a shaded relaxation area or the expansive sundeck on the upper deck, where they can sink into lounge chairs and soak up the atmosphere and stunning views. This liveaboard features a Nitrox membrane and is rebreather and Tec diving friendly.

Boat interior
The liveaboard accommodates up to 16 guests in its 8 well-appointed cabins. Each stateroom is equipped with air conditioning, private facilities, hairdryers, and safes for personal belongings. After a day of diving, divers can relax in the comfortable lounge area, which features plush sofas and a plasma TV. For those who prefer to stay outside, the sun deck offers lounge chairs for soaking in the sun. The open-air dining area is perfect for enjoying meals while taking in the gorgeous scenery of the surrounding waters.

Dive deck
The dive deck is designed to provide ample space and comfort for all divers on board. It includes under-bench storage boxes for personal belongings like fins and masks, as well as shower hoses for rinsing between dives. This setup ensures a seamless and enjoyable diving experience.

Itineraries
The Solomons Master is one of the few liveaboard yachts that offer the opportunity to dive in the Solomon Islands, a premier destination for liveaboard dive trips. The Solomon Islands boast unmatched biodiversity, rivaling any other Indo-Pacific dive travel destination for coral reefs and marine life, yet without the usual tourist crowds. Divers can explore wrecks, caverns, drop-offs, wide-angle reefs, and large sea fans, all while experiencing the traditional culture of the islanders.

For those who enjoy encountering larger marine creatures, the Solomon Islands offer sightings of various types of sharks and rays cruising amid spectacular scenery of jaw-dropping reefs, walls, and pinnacles. Macro enthusiasts will find a plethora of critters, including pygmy seahorses, colorful nudibranchs, electric clams, ghost pipefish, and many more. The diverse marine biodiversity ensures there is something for everyone in the Solomons.

When to go
Diving in the Solomon Islands is possible year-round, but conditions are best between April and November when visibility can exceed 40 meters. The water temperature typically ranges between 26-30 degrees Celsius, making it suitable for divers of all levels, from novices to very experienced divers.

This liveaboard cruise offers an exceptional scuba diving holiday experience, combining comfort, safety, and unparalleled underwater adventures in one of the most pristine diving destinations in the world. With the Solomons Master, divers are assured of a remarkable journey through the vibrant underwater ecosystems of the Solomon Islands

Nice relaxing dive tripVerified review
Overall a nice trip, but I cannot say that diving was superb. Almost no large pelagic, and the visibility wasn't good at times due to bad weather. On the other hand, the diving was easy, the underwater topography in Russell Islands was stunning, the corals were very healthy, and there were many interesting macro opportunities. The boat was spacious and well designed, with large cabins, large common areas and large dive deck. The food was good, but pretty standard, with only a few variations over the course of 10 days. The crew was very attentive, with increased focus on safety and making guests comfortable. The dive guides were always there when they were needed, but they did not make much effort in trying to find small, hard to see critters and pointing them out to divers.

TerribleVerified review
Worst liveaboard that I have ever been on! I have been on probably about 10 liveaboard trips over the past decade including to Palau (x3), Indonesia, Maldives, Cocos island, Philippines, Galapagos, etc.  Diving with Solomon Master Liveaboards has been the only negative one that I have ever had.  First, the trip was delayed as they did not have their act together to insure that everything was sorted with the port authority.  There was minimal communication about the complication, and I did not find this out until I actually arrived at which time I was informed that departure would be delayed by at least a day.  When you have travelled 30+ hours at enormous cost and have used your limited vacation, this is a huge deal.  They were also going to insist that I share a room with a stranger despite the fact that the boat was not at full capacity.  It seemed like the very least they could do given their mistake, but I had to escalate it to the head office after I was told repeatedly that I would be charged twice as much for this even though that room would have gone empty, and they would not have realized any additional profit.  Second, the dive boat was not up to par with no hot water, only intermittent air conditioning within rooms, and no Wi-Fi services despite the fact that this was advertised.  Third, there were only 2 dive masters.  One of them was having ear problems so actually did not go on several of the dives, and the other had not dove a lot of the dive sites.  I felt like the situation was borderline unsafe.  My list of complaints actually continues but wanted to restrain it to the ones that I found most problematic.  Needless to say, I will avoid Master Liveaboards at all costs in the future!
