The best liveaboard in the Maldives!
This was by far the best liveaboard and dive holiday I've ever been on (previously been on Leo in the Maldives and another liveaboard in the Philippines, and also diving in Indonesia, Oman, Sicily, and Iceland). The main reason for this was definitely the incredible atmosphere created by all the staff, who were so friendly and made it such a wonderful week! The boat itself is very comfortable, the food is great, and the dives were spectacular. The cabins on lower deck are beautiful wooden rooms, with powerful showers that always have hot water. The bed is made up several times a day, and the air con keeps the room cool. The food is really tasty and there is lots of it, and it is served on the table, instead of buffet style, which is much nicer. There are 3 shaded sun decks with loungers and bean bags, and there is always loads of chilled filtered water to drink. The dive tender is really large and the boat staff are so helpful - they always helped me carry my tank in and out of the boat since I had a back operation. The dives themselves were brilliant, and the briefings were always thorough and well explained. The dive guides are great - ours was Shamoon, and he was amazing! Always so friendly, fun, and helpful. The GM, Alex, was on the boat the week we were there and he was so kind, friendly, and fun! Some other amazing experiences were drinking from coconuts on a beach while listening to music with the staff and guests. Snorkelling at the back of the boat with a whale shark and dolphins who stayed all night and who we had to ourselves! Watching a pod of pilot whales from the boat - the captain followed them for us for half an hour so we could get a better look! This was one of the best holidays I've been on, and I will definitely be booking Eco Blue next time I'm in the Maldives! It surpassed my expectations on every count. Thank you so much!

Lifechanging experience that will be hard to beat!
The highlight of this trip was Moofushi Corner. The simplicity of swimming against the current with hundreds of thousands of other fish, mimics the feeling of flying. Add in a very curious baby eagle ray, and it makes the experience magical. Would highly recommend and will certainly look to visit again and dive with Eco Blue!

Fun to dive!
Awesome dive experience with awesome guides, crews and food! All three dive guides are very friendly, well experienced and humorous. Crews are also very friendly and well serving. Foods they prepare was also top notch in my three times of live-aboard experience. No regrets by choosing Eco Blue for diving, fun to dive!

Outstanding and Exceptional Trip
We had two close encounters with playful Mantas - and Whaleshark inches away at the back of the boat at night, along with lots of large pelagic action in many channel dives. Eco-Blue is a "Happy Ship", well run, with a delightful crew who couldn't do more to make the trip outstanding.
