Diving Abroad

Starting with the high end trip, we have a glorious liveaboard in the Maldives on 3rd October 2026 with flights departing on the 2nd October. With 7 nights on board, this is a luxurious trip not to be missed.

The boat holds 20 and the configuration is:

8 spaces in lower deck twin

6 spaces in lower deck double

2 spaces in main deck twin – with supplement of £175 per person per week

4 spaces in upper deck twin – with supplement of £220 per person per week

Liveaboard Services/Facilities: The main deck has a large outdoor dining table and a corner bar and drinks area. There are several tables inside for relaxing. On the upper deck are comfy sofas, whilst outside is the VIP lounge with sofas and chairs facing the sea where relaxation and aperitifs are the order of the day. The sundeck is the perfect place for catching those sunrays and simply relaxing.
