Great experience!
Beautiful and very well organized liveaboard. On each dive, we were able to observe many species of sharks. We were also lucky enough to see many manta rays and a whale shark. Some dives were stronger drift dives. Many thanks to Martina our professional dive guide. She showed us a lot and gave us great support when we had difficulties.We will be very happy to come back!

Perfect Safari
We had a fantastic safari. The planning, the staff, the dives, the food, the boat, everything was great. We were particularly impressed that individual wishes were also taken into account during the dives. We will come back.

Amazing food
Great value for money. Great food. Diving was fantastic following a sublet itinerary as every other live aboard. A couple of things to mention. They use steel tanks which are heavy if you're used to Aluminium. They use 28% nitrox, which is fine but I would rather more. We often got close to our NDC limits.

One of the best trips in my life
While you turn the phone off for entire week, you can focus on relaxing and Princess Dhonkamana and it's staff are everything to keep you out any worry. All perfectly organized, cooked, cleaned. Underwater na nurse sharks, white & black tips, rays, friendly mantas, napoleons, sleeping turtles, adorable anemones. Plus white sands and excellent weather (even during monsoon time).
