Clear recommendation
The trip was well organized, the dives mostly great! Sometimes a lot of current, I would have liked an explicit briefing. The food was just amazing! Always a lot of choice, always something "European" and always super delicious! The bartender also did a great job. All in all, we had a really great week (but that was also a lot due to the people who were in our diving group!)

One of the best time of my life, I'd do it again in a heartbeat if I can.
I enjoy every minutes of the trip. Diving everyday, resting, watching the endless sea before your eyes and temporarily forget all your worries. The trip exceeds my expectation and I can't wait to come back in the future.

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

Very good arrangement of the whole dive trip, professional and patient briefing before every dive. Nice crew can take care every scope so that we can fully into diving. Delicious foods can help us recovery quickly after each diving. Memorable experience when night diving and attract manta with torch. Make many new friends from different countries.

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.

Excellent boat and a great week of diving
Carpe Diem is a very large & well laid out boat. The standard twin cabin was very large and well appointed. Food and drinks were excellent, one of the best menus I have experienced on a liveaboard trip. Daily fresh towels were provided for after the dives. Dive Briefings were well run & the organisation of the boat, dives, briefing, safety was all to a very high standard.
