Wonderful diving, beautiful boat, awesome crew
This was our first longish liveaboard and it was an unforgettable experience! We went in May so the sea was a bit rough but the crew made it as safe and comfortable as possible for us. We saw whale sharks, mantas, so many rays, reef sharks...couldn't ask for more.

Eye to eye with the whale shark
There are no complaints about the journey with the Adora from start to finish. The entire crew was very attentive and always friendly at all times. The cabins were very spacious with their own TV, proper shower and stable water pressure. The food was very good and plentiful.For diving there was a fresh towel every day.WiFi and Nitrox are already included in the price.The dive sites were very nice. In addition to the many big fish (including manta rays and whale sharks), our guide also had a good eye for macro critters.The beach BBQ and volleyball game were also a highlight.

Best all-around Liveaboard experience of my life
Prices were very good for the single cabin and ensuite (for 1 person). The only drawback was that the cabin was near the anchor which was usually raised at 5am and was very loud. Boat (and my room/bathroom) was clean, newer and well-maintaned. Easy access to fast, free wifi, friendly and well-informed crew and guides. The 'checkout' dive near the harbour resulted in unparalleled up-close views of various rays, other fish and black tip, bull and tiger sharks. Be prepared and have your camera dialed in and ready to go. The rest of the trip included: whale sharks, manta rays inches from you (don't touch), dolphins, etc. Too many species to name. The food was very good and plentiful. Pay for alcohol and pop. Comfortable common room.

- Excellent guide (Jessie), crew and captain. Separate (large) dive boat with nitrox. Large species, great coral and good visibility.

Big Fish, Big Moments, Brilliant Crew
The crew and dive guides did everything possible to make our trip both comfortable and safe. We experienced outstanding dives with large schools of reef sharks, mating nurse sharks, manta rays, and an unforgettable encounter with whale sharks. The entire tour was exceptionally well organized and is highly recommended. The food was very good and thoughtfully portioned — generous without being excessive, which we truly appreciated as it helps avoid unnecessary food waste. The cabins were spacious, tastefully furnished, and impeccably clean. The prices for soft drinks and alcoholic beverages were fair.

Nice liveaboard on the Adora
Overall, we enjoyed our trip with the Adora. It was great to dive the Maldives on a liveaboard, visiting many top spots. We saw lots of sharks, mantas, and schools of fish, and also several eagle rays, turtles, etc. Being almost fully booked (20 out of 21), there was still enough space for everyone to either gather together or have private moments. The cabins are large, too. Meals were good and tasty, and although we had a full schedule, there was time to rest between the dives.
- Recommended for
- Boat is spacious, having are separate dive dhoni is a plus. Nice selection of dive spots. Cabins are large, comfortable when sharing a cabin.
