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 the central and deep south atolls and dive at the Malé 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, home to whale sharks, scorpionfish, glassfish, reef sharks, Napoleon wrasse, green turtles, beautiful corals, dolphins, and more.

This was a great trip. The weather conditions were challenging, often with rainy and windy conditions, but the crew adjusted the schedule so that we got the most out of our trip. Given the conditions, the diving was excellent with a variety of abundant marine life including sharks, turtles, octopus, and reef fishes. Absolute highlights were the two night dives with mantas and sharks. Seeing mantas that close up and personal was an experience of a lifetime. Fortunately, the weather conditions allowed for a fantastic barbecue on the beach under a start-light sky with awesome food, drinks, and a sand sculptured whale shark! All in all a great experience!

- Diving, especially the two night dives with mantas and sharks were awesome!. Friendly and accommodating crew, excellent food, great atmosphere, good dive briefings, and several very informative presentations about marine life.. Good accommodations and service. The barbecue on the beach was a non-diving trip highlight..

Great experience onboard of the Sachika
I had a great time during my trip to Maldives onboard the Sachika. Really tasty food, amazing crew, the boat was very comfortable. I went on the Yoga special week, it was fantastic doing yoga on pristine beaches watching the sunset and also on board. The diving planning was excellent so we almost always avoided being in crowded places. Really recommend them.

Outstanding experience!
We are so grateful to the entire Sachika crew for making our first-ever liveaboard experience so memorable and enjoyable! Some of the highlights of our trip included the awe-inspiring dive sites throughout the central atolls in the Maldives, the special beach BBQ, the tasty food/snacks/desserts, and the great people and service on board! Special thank you to Sachika cruise manager Martina Zimmitti and her staff for going above and beyond to provide a safe and fun environment for all.

Best week of my life. Period.
The Sashika impresses with its four decks, great cuisine and a comfortable and functional Dhoni to take divers to any divesite at high comfort. The crew and cruise director not only managed to keep us 100% happy 24 hours a day, they also managed to go to the right places at the right time. Nightdives with manta rays and nurse sharks, snorkeling with whalesharks, diving in strong current to see uncountable grey reef sharks and whittips. Everything is so well organized that all guests were able to charge their cameras and lights, store their gear and take their personal space with no effort. The crew even cleaned everyones equipment at the end of the week - absolutely amazing service. I've seen quite a lot in my life and I've done many things, but this week combined so many things on my personal bucketlist that I just have to admit - this was the best week of my life. Thank you Sashika team, I will definitely come back and there will be no other option than Sashika. Stay safe, lots of fish and take care Phillip
