The Magnificent Maldives on Carpe Diem!
This was my first liveabord experience and it was fantastic! The knowledge of the dive team, the locations we set out to were amazing. Thanks you Munkko, Saaz and Wathey. There pre dive briefings were very informative and set the tone for the dives. The rooms were very comfortable and always well maintained by our smiling friend Subuj! Our meals were delicious and well balanced thanks to our chef and bartender: Nilanka and Mahey! Special note of gratitude to Captain Issey and engineer Adam for getting me to some awesome reefs! And Koko and the rest of the crew for their hard work in making this trip a flawless experience. I cannot wait to share this with my friends and return. With gratitude, Susan

Good times cruising the Southern Maldives
The scenery while cruising around the Maldivian Atolls is stunning. The Diving was good and water’s warm, even though the highlight dives are artificial. The Boat was comfortable and the Crew were accommodating.

Great choice for a Maldives liveaboard
We are very happy with our choice to book a liveaboard with Carpe Diem. The boat was very comfortable, well maintained and special thanks to the crew - there were no wishes unfullfilled. Everyday we had delicious meals and snacks. The boat and the rooms were cleaned several times everyday. The 16 divers were split in three small diving groups, got detailed briefings before every dive and were assisted, whenever needed. The diveguides were keen to show us the best divesides, avoid the crowds and make the most of our trip... on the many beautiful and exciting dives, we were lucky to see mantas, a whaleshark, seaturtles, eagle rays and countless sharks... including bullshark, tiger sharks and a hammerhead shark! Thanks for this amazing trip!
