No regrets on my first Maldives trip. The long plane ride (SFO-SIN-MLE) was the worst part.

Fantastic from stepping on the first boat (dhoni.) Met at the airport, then walked across the street to our dive boat, where we had our gear set up even before reaching the liveaboard boat.

Dive crew was fantastic. All creatures, great and small - Mantas being the greatest. Food was tasty and plentiful, with local flair.

At the top!

Awesome trip, no complaints! The sharks were there, life on board was pleasant. Sure, one day I'll put on the fins again aboard the Leo!

Recommended for
The quality of the dives. The quality of the meals. The boat.

Great diving, great organization, great manager, Jules

All the dives were fabulous, I remember the amount of colors, the variety of fish corals, and the superb side of the manta and shark ball

Rhythm all week long but also the soothing and reassuring side of Jules

Top notch operation

Whale sharks and manta rays. Hook diving to watch the sharks is always interesting.

Recommended for
loved the roominess on this boat. By having a seperate dive dhoani there is a lot more space on our live aboard. The dives were quite varied which made it interesting. The crew were awesome
