Amazing crew along with fantastic dives to make the a perfect dive vacation.
What a fantastic trip we had! The crew does everything in their might to make this liveaboard a perfect cruise. Underwater, we saw sharks on 95% of our dives, plenty of mantas, along with other rays and giants schools of fish. The food was also a highlight with the chef keeping us full between dives :)

Great in every way!
This was a great trip. The boat is spacious, clean & comfy. Dining was at an outdoor table, which prompted socialization among all. The food was amazing! The crew was friendly & helpful. The diving was mostly drift & current, in super warm, 85F water. We saw sharks, sharks, mantas, & more sharks. The highlight were 2 close encounters with whale sharks! While hooked in, 1 whale shark swam right over us, so closely. The other was hanging out behind the boat at night & stayed over an hour. People could be in the water w/ it or stand above, inches from it. What an incredible trip!!!

Great time aboard Carpe Diem
Absolutely amazing diving in Maldives. Maldives has the reputation as a bucket-list, "must do" destination, and that's for a reason. The diving was spectacular, and Carpe Diem is a great way o see it. I'd definitely sail with them again.

Astonishing trip with many sharks and mantas
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.
