Amazing week in the maldives
I was really lucky and we were only 8 divers, so it felt way more cosy, than my previous Liveaboards. The boat was a little bit old and sometimes I had some trouble with some smells inside. Other than that, the week was amazing and I have seen soooo many things (whale shark, hammerhead, spinner sharks, guitarfish, manta, marble ray, trevallys, barracudas, and a lot of nudibranchs). The guides were really great and made it not only fun, but also a very safe experience.

My week on a Horizon 3
All of the staff is extremly friendly, super nice, great people. Food is realy great, super fresh, we caught tuna on a daily basis and had ceviche and grilled tuna for lunch. The dives are great, locations adjustable depending on the conditions for the best possible experience. Rooms are nice, cleaned daily. Island visits and bbq is a great bonus.

Amazing Liveaboard Trip
We have spent a week on the Blue Horizon III as a couple. But you could also join the boat as a single traveler because you get to know so many people from all over the world. The diving was also very nice. We have been on different places and saw amazing things just line sharks, mantas, many many different fishes, octopus, scorpion fish and many many more. Between the dives and the food you can have a chat or take a good rest in your comfy room or somewhere else on the boat. We loved this week and would book a trip with the Horizon Blue again.

It's all worth it
I came here to celebrate my birthday, and while the trip started off a bit slow, it just kept getting better with each day. The absolute highlight was spotting a whale shark right beneath me while snorkeling an unforgettable! The crew and guides were fantastic, always friendly and helpful,my dive guide cha cha is like an aquaman once we are off the boat. I’d love to come back again truly a great adventure!
