Relaxed diving with sharks and rays
It is a different diving experience than the Red Sea, for example. Less color and sight and small fish but for the big really recommended

Beautiful liveaboard in the Maldives
Had a beautiful liveaboard that left nothing to be desired. The crew and dive guides went out of their way to make for a pleasant experience. A spontaneous route change, which was discussed with all divers, led to unforgettable dives with manta rays and whale sharks. We also got to see some sharks. A big thank you to the captain, the entire ship's crew and also the dive guides. That's exactly how I introduced my first liveaboard.An unforgettable experience with the Horizon 3.

Great experience for decent price.
Nurse Shar zoo was quite an experience, lots of sharks, whale shark snorkeling was also a success, despite high competition from other boats. Great food and wide variety of it. Highly recommend central route.

great week on Blue Horizon 3
I am so happy that i took the trip. My room was very comfortable and the service was great. the crew are super friendly and they did everything possible to make this trip smooth and rememberable. The dives were well planned and the safety proceedure was super proffesional and up to the best standards. The variety of food was very satisfactory. I would have preferred more salty snacks as I am not a big fan of sweets. However, its still very good to have after the dives and in between meals. congratulations for the entire crew for their superb efforts and I will surely come back again!
