About this trip - 3rd - 10th May 2027
Maldives Master - Central Atolls, Maldives
Diving in the Central Atolls of the Maldives is widely regarded as some of the best in the region. The area covers the North and South Malé Atolls, North and South Ari Atolls, Vaavu Atoll, and the surrounding smaller atolls.
The Maldives Master is a stunning vessel, with spacious, luxurious cabins, an indoor dining area, a bar, an air-conditioned lounge, a jacuzzi and multiple sundecks. One of the most outstanding features is the custom-built dhoni (diving support vessel). This 19m dhoni is spacious, fast, and equipped with all the modern conveniences that divers want.
Marine life
It’s the thrill of diving among big marine life that makes the Maldives one of the world’s best places for those who crave close encounters with the ocean’s most magnificent creatures.
Diving in the Maldives is an incredible adventure for anyone who loves encounters with the ocean’s giants. Warm, clear waters and nutrient-rich currents draw in schools of reef sharks, mantas, and even the occasional whale shark!
