Highlights
The Sachika liveaboard, by Top Class Cruising, is a 33-meter/108-feet custom-built liveaboard that has been Awarded the “Best Dive Safari Boat’’by the National Boating Association of the Maldives for two editions. The Sachika has 10 cabins, including 3 suites, 1 junior suite, 4 standard double or twin cabins, and 2 twin cabins, catering to 22 guests. Each cabin has an air conditioner, en-suite bathroom, mini-bar, and private entertainment hubs. The sundeck with its jacuzzi is perfect for relaxation between dives and stargazing at night. Meals are served in the A/C restaurant, and guests can sip on some tasty cocktails while lounging on the aft deck. The trailing dhoni (a traditional Maldivian vessel) is used for diving and keeping all the tanks and compressors separate so travelers can sleep. A full snorkeling itinerary for non-divers includes activities like fishing, beach visits, and treks.
Aboard the Sachika, guests will cruise through central and deep south atolls and dive at Male Atolls, Rasdhoo, Meemu, and Ari Atolls. The cruise sets out to the south with the exploration of a trawler that sank three decades ago and became a home for the local needlefish and scorpionfish. In the western part of the atoll, it is easy to meet manta rays coming close to the reef to enjoy the many cleaning stations. The sea is rich in marine life and is full of whale sharks, scorpion fish, glassfish, reef sharks, Napoleon wrasse, green turtles, beautiful corals, dolphins, and more.

I'm still flashed!Despite the not so good weather, the crew gave everything and gave us a wonderful trip, which got even better from day to day until you didn't want to go home. The dives were super organized, the guides professional, the crew on the Doni super helpful and nice, the crew on the boat itself was also super friendly and professional and the people in the kitchen just rounded off my vacation perfectly. I really have nothing to complain about.Hope that one day I can be a guest with you again.Thank you for this unforgettable time

Comfortable and welcoming liveaboard experiences thrilling dives
One of the highlights was definitely the amazing dive sites that the boat took us to, where we saw all kinds of oceanic species such as manta rays, eagle rays, bull shark, guitar shark, hammer-head shark, just to name a few. Another highlight was a BBQ dinner on an uninhabited island, where they arranged a surprise celebration of my engagement with a cake! I also see that the social function that they host at night such as karaoke night and dance night made it easier to socialize with other people on the cruise and helped form great memories on the cruise.

Amazing experience on Sachika!
I did a lot of research into Maldives liveaboards and am so glad we picked Sachika! It was a perfect week. The whole crew is amazing—Martina, Claudio, Chacha, Ali, Rashi, and Herbert are great, as are the rest of the staff on the boat. The boat itself is super nice and clean, and there is plenty of space to relax after dives. And the food was great. I am vegan and the kitchen did an incredible job—they made me special dishes and always labeled things as vegan in the buffet. There were also lots of fun activities; we loved the beach BBQ and island happy hour. Finally, the dives were life-changing!! We wished we could have stayed longer. Thank you to everyone!

An Unforgettable Liveaboard Experience with Top Class Cruising
I recently had the pleasure of spending seven incredible days aboard Sachika, and I can’t recommend this experience highly enough! From start to finish, the team exceeded all expectations and delivered a truly top-tier diving adventure. The cabins were spotless, comfortable, and thoughtfully designed—exactly what you need after a full day of diving. Communication and dive briefings done by Andrea were consistently clear and professional, setting the tone for safe and enjoyable dives. The dive sites themselves were diverse and fascinating, offering something new and exciting every time we entered the water. The food was another highlight—delicious, nutritious, and perfectly suited to the energy demands of up to four dives a day. The crew made sure we were well-fed and ready to take on each day’s adventures. A special shoutout to our personal dive guide, Hassan, whose calm expertise and passion for diving truly stood out. He not only showed us the most incredible underwater sights but also made me and my husband feel completely safe and confident on every dive. When I encountered an issue with my personal dive gear mid-dive, Hassan’s calm demeanor and problem-solving skills immediately put me at ease and helped resolve the situation smoothly. This trip was an unforgettable experience filled with stunning underwater landscapes, amazing marine life, and a team that genuinely cares about providing an exceptional experience. If you’re looking for a liveaboard that delivers on all fronts, Top Class Cruising is it.
