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.

A fabulous way to live and dive on the sea!
My husband and I had a fabulous trip on this boat. We met divers from around the world and future friends. Many good dives, but the visibility could have been better on some dives. My goal was to see a whale shark, but we didn’t, though they are wild! Maybe next time. The boat boys were very knowledgeable about the equipment. I would highly recommend anyone to try a liveaboard, and blue horizon 3 lived up to the expectations! Thanks…

A recommended choice for first time divers in Maldives.
It’s a very pleasant experience and economic choice for all-level divers. The schedule may not be so punctual with the team yet the choice is made on safety first priority. Solo traveler has no worries as people, both guests and crews, are friendly.

- The guide Steve is very caring and supportive. He was very professional in showing us routes and animals and tackling difficult weather situations. We were in storm for one night with the weather sudden change yet he showed profession and calmness that helped the whole team back to boat safe. He’s very responsive for whatever question and requires from team, also other guests on the boat. He cared a lot about his team and provided personal guidance and coach to every team member.. Crew is very friendly and supportive who spots guest’s needs and offer handful support whenever occurs.. Food is changing everyday with a western taste preference, providing diverse dessert options and a very comprehensive coffee machine..
