a wonderful holiday full of friendly people and incredible experiences
I can only recommend Ocean One, the crew was great, nice and helpful. When we only wanted to snorkel, they always accommodated us and made a program just for us. The accommodation, food and crew were amazing. Excellent vacation and I definitely want to go with this boat again

Much more than expected!
I started this journey without expectations but I found special people in the crew, beautiful activities, amazing dive sites and great food on board. Checco, Irey, Muhey and everyone helped us to enjoy this experience at the best and they made it! A lot of beautiful dive sites, deserts islands where to chill, kayak, paddle board, fish. The boat is huge, with a lot of good common spaces, and nice rooms. Internet works most of the time. I recommend Ocean One and Checco’s crew 100%!

So many amazing memories from this trip and I can't wait to make more!
My daughter and I decided to do our very first liveaboard in 2024 and I can't imagine a better place to start. The dive guides were knowledgeable and patient and were able to cater to everyone's experience level. While I wouldn't describe this as a luxury liveaboard, it was absolutely perfect for our budget and even exceeded some of our expectations. I tend to be a bit of a picky eater, but the food was better than I could have hoped for. Most of my boat excursions have been with larger commercial cruise ships, so I'm very glad that I chose an upper level cabin. Even when the boat would move at night, the rocking never caused any sea sickness for myself or my daughter.

- The location. No one could have a bad time surrounded by such beauty.. The crew were amazing. I didn't have a single bad interaction with anyone on the boat....everyone was friendly and helpful.. The diving was spectacular. The manta dives were my absolute favorite..

Exceeded my expectations, great liveaboard!
Was on the central maledives cruise starting December 4th 2023 and it was an absolute blast! The boat is in great condition and very spacious. Food was superb - Buffet for breakfast and lunch, set menu for dinner. The crew catered for all special diets like vegan food perfectly. The dives were phenomenal. Channel and thila dives with dozens of grey sharks, eagle ray, manta rays, whaleshark, turtles, octopus, so nothing else to wish for. You should consider that there are many dives at 30m with very strong currents, and with four instructors for 20-30 guests, you should be comfortable to dive alone with your buddy in challenging conditions. The guests and instructors were mostly French natives. But Lucila, one of the instructors, mostly took care of the six international guests. She did an amazing job to make sure that all info and briefings were provided in English and that we had a great time under water and on board. Thanks Lucila and the whole team for such a great experience!
