Highlights
The spacious 43m Nautilus Two liveaboard Maldives caters to up to 24 guests in 12 cabins. With an average cabin size of 20 m², each cabin has a double bed, single bed, desk, mirror, large closet, wardrobe, shelves, and AC, making them extremely spacious. There is also a private en-suite bathroom with a massage shower. There is plenty of room to relax whilst onboard the Nautilus Two. Meals are served in the parlor, where a 5m ex-fishing dhoni is the central buffet table showcasing the varied menu of local specialties and delicious European cuisine. The bar offers cold beer on tap and a wide selection of red and white wines and spirits. The boat's bow is a popular hang-out area due to the cool breeze and shade and a great place to enjoy the views or dip in the jacuzzi. The huge sundeck has enough loungers for everyone and also offers stunning views.
Divers are taken care of from Dhe Kaffi - the dedicated diving dhoni. All the compressors are here, ensuring a quiet night's sleep aboard the mother ship. The dhoni is spacious and offers enough individual storage space for all divers. Nitrox is available upon request, and the dhoni will remain nearby during all dives for added safety. The ENOS divers rescue system is provided free of charge. A typical diving day exploring the Maldivian atolls usually involves 3 dives per day, including some night dives throughout the week. It is highly recommended that divers have at least 40 dives and deep diving experience to make the most of the dive sites available.

Better than advertised!
The food was brilliant. The crew tried very hard. Barbecue was lovingly arranged on the beach of an inhabited island. There were also spacious shelters for rainy weather (we actually used it). The dive crew has also come up with something: rear headlights on and then bathing with a large whale shark as well as an underwater light avenue for the manta buffet. The spacious deck with stable folding loungers and loungers was in great demand, especially at sunset. If you wanted, it was also possible to sleep there at night under a beautiful starry sky.

- Plenty of space, no climbing up and down narrow stairs. Enough dry storage space for charging batteries, mobile phones, tablets, ..... All diving gear on the dhoni, i.e. in the Nautilus, everything was "dry".

A magical experience touring the South Ari Atoll.
The diving was everything the Maldives promised and the Nautilus Two is as comfortable as a boat can get whilst remaining authentic. All dives were exciting and varied with one fantastic night dive which was the highlight of our trip. Just one comment: the boat should offer more night dives as there is so much to see after dark contrary to many other places around the world. A great experience all round so thank you to the whole crew.

Spacious boat and great diving
It was a really nice tour through the central atolls. The dive planning was great, so that we could enjoy some of the top spots without other dive groups. The dive guides really tried to show us the best diving. The food was tasty and more than enough. The best was the big amount of space: the cabins are the largest I've ever met and on deck you will always find a shady place to linger.

Incredible diving with excellent dive guides.
The diving experience was superb. Dive crew and dive support team were efficient, communicated well, led the groups well, flexible to changes in group configuration based on customer preferences (use of nitrox, dive depth, etc.), and kept everyone safe despite some strong winds and high seas.

- Excellent dive guides. Incredible diving. Flexible crew and dive team, adapting our itinerary so we could still do all the best sites despite changing weather conditions.

An amazing 11 days visiting the best Ari has to offer!
The knowledgable and flexible diving staff - a couple times we had to make slight alterations to the dive sites we'd planned to go to either because of weather or because they'd be too busy with other boats. The alternative dive sites were just as good, and we always saw something interesting or new!

Amazing trip
Boat looks old school from outside but it's actually very luxurious inside, rooms are amazing and the staff was perfect (especially for food and cleaning). I was probably expecting more about the dives. It was really good my expectations were very high haha, especially after the first dive where we could see many spinner sharks and stingrays (feeding spot in Hulhumale).
