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.

A dream
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

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.

Trip of a Lifetime
I had one of the best trips of my life with the Top Class Crusing company. It was such a treat to wake up every day in the Maldives and be able to go diving. The boat was immaculate and the staff were out of this world. I enjoyed every second, could not recommend enough. I plan on going back again in 2026 because I don’t think I’ll ever get sick of the diving and the team.

Mindblowing, completely exceeded our expectations
Bea (the boat manager) and the crew have created a warm, welcoming, joyful atmosphere on the boat. The minute you arrive you are greeted with the warm smiles of the crew and a refreshing welcome drink. From there, you can enjoy some of the best diving in the world. The dive guides were knowledgeable-timing the dives so we had the best opportunity to see the undersea life we were hoping to see (mantas, whale sharks, sharks, turtles). There was a variety of skill levels on the boat but they managed nicely to arrange us in groups that were appropriate for everyone. The food was delicious and there was a wide selection to choose from. If was a buffet style so you could choose what you wanted and eat as much/as little as you wanted. They stopped at small islands from time to time so we could enjoy the beauty of the desert islands that the Maldives are so famous for. On the last day, we also had a tour around the capital city of Male. We felt the price was very reasonable for the number of dives we could do, the amount of food we were able to eat, the extra tours they provided, the beach barbecue, etc. The crew of the dhoni prepared our dive gear and tanks every dive so it was pure heaven to just go to the dhoni, put on our equipment, and jump in the water. Every detail was taken care of. Athithi, our excellent dive guide, was able to show us some amazing sites but did not take any risks when there was a current, etc. We always felt like he was looking out for our safety. The dining area is set up so you get to sit with other passengers and enjoy getting to know other people. By the end of the week, we felt as though we had made 20 new dive friends. We are so thankful we chose Sachika for our Maldives adventure. Thank you to all the crew.

Really Wild Deep South on Sachika with plenty of Big Stuff!
We had a good time on Sachika. The boat is in good shape even if there is a lot of traditional dark wood everywhere. Everything worked fine. The dives with tiger sharks on the Tiger Wall was a proper highlight, as well as the encounters with eagle rays, whale sharks, and manta rays.
