Winner of multiple awards, the Scubaspa Yang provides a truly luxurious diving experience in the Maldives. Up to 36 guests (maximum 26 divers) can be accommodated in 17 guest cabins (5 Manta Suites, 3 Dolphin Suites, 1 Cowrie Suite, 8 Sea Star Cabins). One suite and one cabin can be converted into a triple to accommodate 3 guests. All cabins feature en-suite bathrooms and individually controlled air conditioning. The 8 suites located on the main deck all offer panoramic sea views.
The restaurant is located on the main deck and serves three buffet-style meals, plus an à la carte menu. There are live cooking stations, and internationally qualified chefs cater to all dietary needs. There is also an alfresco dining area at the rear of the main deck, and there will be the opportunity to enjoy a BBQ on a deserted island during your stay. The onboard spa spans 300 m² and features 4 treatment rooms, including a double room designed for couples.
Diving from the Scubaspa Yang takes place from the accompanying dive dhoni, which carries all the necessary equipment, including air compressors, a nitrox filling station, rinse tanks, and dive equipment storage. Experienced multi-lingual dive instructors and divemasters can cater to all diving levels and abilities. As a PADI 5 Star Dive Resort, a variety of courses, from beginner to advanced, can be taken on board.

Remarkable. Second time with Scubaspa and it out performed all expectations
The guests were a delightful crowd. The snorkelling (I don't scuba) was excellent. And everything has been thought through. This is a terrific experience for solo travellers. Can highly recommend.

We'd Do It Again!
Great crew - very personable and caring. Dive sites were very good. Condition of boat was very good, and dining and spa facilities were first class. Felt like we were on a high class yacht at a much lower cost and with very amiable casual atmosphere. Had lots of fun dancing and relaxing on a couple of nights when we weren't going diving early the next day.

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)

Unforgettable trip on Scubaspa Yang
An exceptional experience aboard the Scubaspa Yang. Without question, this is the finest liveaboard cruise I have experienced to date. The level of service is outstanding: warm welcome, genuine personalized attention, highly adaptable and professional dive team, beautiful underwater sites, excellent cuisine, and a consistently kind and attentive crew. A special mention for the Manta Suites, which are simply sublime—extraordinarily spacious and refined for a liveaboard. I could only wish for my bedroom in Paris to feel exactly like my cabin on the Scubaspa Yang. Everything came together perfectly. A truly memorable experience.
