100% recommended
We had the most incredible time with the Adora Boat Club! We did the Central Atolls 8 days, 7 nights in January. We had Maazin as our diving instructor as well as Javed and Alif and we couldn’t have asked for a better crew! We saw stingrays, manta rays, nurse sharks, white tipped reef sharks, black tipped reef sharks, octopuses, spotted eagle rays, stingrays and many MORE! The dive boat crew was super helpful before and after dives, and accommodated to all our needs. The boat is BEAUTIFUL! The food was so delicious and different every meal. The Sri Lankan food on the last day was incredible. The team on the boat was so sweet, they took care of everything we needed and always with the biggest smile. We celebrated our honeymoon on the boat and they surprised us with a beautiful floral arrangement and complimentary champagne. The Beach BBQ was super fun and the sand sculptures they did were INCREDIBLE. Without a doubt would do it again. It was my first liveaboard experience and I am so happy I felt so comfortable and supported by the team. I did my advanced open water during the tour and am so happy to continue diving!

As good as the Maldives get
As already mentioned, the crew is fantastic. Every single person is helpful and up for a joke, making this a fairly familial experience that feels honest.

Wonderful and unforgettable
My experience with Adora was fantastic. We saw several species of sharks, snorkeled with two (!) whale sharks at night, one more whale shark the day after, several mantas at night and two more the day after at their cleaning station. Plus eagle and sting rays, big turtle, octopus, and so on. The diving was very beautiful and our guides very professional. The staff both for the diving and in the boat was extremely friendly, kind, funny. They really made the experience even more enjoyable. The boat itself is great, spacious and cozy, huge rooms and everything well functioning. Big thanks to Deko, Ismail and the rest of the team!

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.

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.

It doesn't get much better
The trip with the Adora met all my expectations, if not exceeded them. The ship is nicely equipped, the food is very good and the staff is always friendly and courteous. The diving is well organized, the guides are very experienced and also help with all wishes and problems. The only small catch was the WiFi, when it went it was very slow. However, you can buy prepaid cards with 2GB on the ship.
