Great experiential dive cruise in Maldivian waters
As a repeater, I have now been to the Maldives for the 8th time with 189 dives completed there out of my total of 1255 dives as a hobby diver.Personally, I liked the Central Tour very much again and I felt very comfortable, not least because of the only 14 and very pleasant diving guest troops.With their professional diving experience, Naathi and Chaaku are the right dive guides for me for relaxed diving in the Maldivian waters with NX32 and with the fantastic manta rays and the "usual other fish".Draft beer after diving and a sumptuous tasty food offer, with good crew care, left nothing to be desired for me.My holiday conclusion is once again everything done😎🇲🇻👍 right

Amazing cruise to Maldives
Amazing! Especially during the shark dives. I want to thank my dive guide Naathi especially, he was so helpful and calm. I was not very experienced using the reef hooks and always took a bit longer to hook them than other divers, but Naathi always tried to help me find a good place to hook and take videos. He was so nice!

Just Amazing
This trip is really worth it. You do 18 dives and spend a week on the boat all inclusive for a small budget compared to what you get.

We are glad we finally made it to the Maldives.
We were a group of nine and had a great time. They were flexible, we weren't keen on seeing a shark feeding so they took us diving. We saw plenty of sharks which was great. The dinner on the beach was fun. Weather could have ruined it but it all worked out fine.

- We liked our guide a lot but others in our group were not pleased with their guide.. It had a good flow of activities.. Everyone was very polite..
