Tiger sharks in the deep south
We had an amazing trip down south. The crew was amazing and so friendly. The highlight was Fuvamula, a spot famous in the world for close encounters with tiger sharks. And it held up to all expectations.

A most wonderful vacation with 17 diverse dives in pure luxury
so many things about this trip were just perfect, and I wish I could do it at least once a year and for at least 2 weeks. The natural setting combined with this exquisite boat and the excellent staff was just amazing. Fellow divers reminded me that there are lots of other beautiful dive spots to discover and great options in terms of liveaboards and resorts, but I can't imagine any will live up to the combination of awesomeness that I experienced on the ScubaSpa Yang.

An unforgettable week
We spent our honeymoon on ScubaSpa Yang, and it was honestly perfect. The diving team, led by Victoria, was incredible - full of knowledge, care, and fun. Our guide Shaad was especially amazing: calm, supportive, and made every one of our 17 dives feel exciting and safe. Big thanks also to Mizze and Sharif for their ocean wisdom and great energy. And the Dhoni crew - Capi Suhail, Kawsar, and Hassan - navigated with ease to every dive site and kept everything with our gear smooth and easy. Onboard, Branden and his team made everything feel seamless and personal. Sajiv and Abey made the best drinks (plus the daily homemade ice cream!), Chef Abdullah wowed us with delicious global dishes, and Jim and Madu made every meal feel special. Hussain and Nazmul kept our room spotless and cozy the whole week. We loved starting the day with yoga with Lins, relaxing with massages from Ella, and heading off on fun island visits and water sports with Ahmed and Jamil. Everything was beautifully organized but never felt rushed. Thank you, ScubaSpa family, for the most unforgettable week! we definitely come back❤️

Superb boat, fantastic diving and lovely crew
One of us dives and one doesn't but on Scubaspa we each had an equally great holiday. Think of a floating five star boutique hotel with an award winning spa and the best staff you could hope for. Add to it top quality diving that just kept giving with attentive and knowledgeable guides. Throw in some super travelling companions great food and lots of fun and you have a trip aboard the Scubaspa Yang. I must also thank Liveaboard.com for making sure everything worked smoothly and all requests were looked after.

Perfect 4 days
From the welcome at the airport, to the food, yoga, diving spots to the staff, it was a great experience. The dive sites were always well explained and the dive guides all made a very good impression. Ours was definitely very good. (We have already experienced this differently)

This was definitely our best liveaboard experience ever!
Overwhelmingly well prepared Christmas dinner, some incredible dives (thanks to a very well coordinated team of diving instructors), the BBQ dinner in an island. Every day included some beautiful surprise. Unforgettable.

A holiday of a lifetime
Being a learner diver, the diving was fantastic, all the dive leaders were so lovely & helpful, all the crew were friendly and generally lovely people. Food was delicious. Everything was taken care of, especially all the dive gear. Very safety conscious so felt safe all the time. The crew on the Dive boat always their to lend you a hand getting in & out of the water, sorted any problem you may have. The whole experience was a highlight, the night we were treated dinner on an island, felt like we were in a postcard, unbelievable. I could go on and on, we are a very lucky family to have had the experience.
