Lifechanging trip overcoming fear of sharks & best diving in the world!
This was hands down the best liveaboard in the Maldives. The staff were all incredible, they made the experience so memorable. I had a phobia of sharks and have been diving to overcome this (successfully) since 2022, however, this was going to be my first time diving with sharks. Bryony was my dive instructor and she was the best I've ever had. Professional, patient, understanding, inspiring and fun. HAving Shark Guardian on-board meant we got to take part in shark conservation and learn about sharks, their behaviours and how to dive with them. Both Brendon at Shark Guardian and Bryony changed my life and this was one of the best weeks of my life. I am able to now dive with sharks and enjoy it! The food was delicious, and the staff provide such a personal experience on board and offer a more premium trip to other boats. This includes group dinner under the stars, beach dinner and private island experience and from the moment you step on you feel at home and there is world class diving, the best instructors and every single detail is taken care of. This was an unforgettable trip and we 10000% recommend.

Best liveabord you will ever do
Scuba Spa is so incredible that it may be hard to do any other liveaboard. The boat is insane. It’s a luxury yacht and it’s amazing. Every detail thought out. The crew is the best. They are so kind and helpful and remember details on your likes and dislikes. They go above and beyond all the time. The food is the best you will ever have on a liveaboard. The dive team is top notch. All of them. We had Luci and she is our favorite dive master ever. The diving was awesome. The spa is amazing.

A perfect trip, highly recommended for anyone looking for an unforgettable yet very comfortable diving experience
We had an incredible 5-day diving experience on the ScubaSpa Yang! The entire crew was not only welcoming but also dedicated to making our trip truly exclusive. Jim, in particular, went above and beyond to ensure we had everything we needed, making us feel right at home. The diving team was equally fantastic. They were highly professional and made sure we felt completely safe at all times. Our guide, Ahu, was exceptional—attentive, knowledgeable, and always eager to share his expertise with us. Each dive was not only safe but full of fascinating insights into the underwater world. The pre-briefing sessions were also very helpful and insightfull to make the best of our experience. A perfect trip from start to finish! Highly recommended for anyone looking for an unforgettable diving experience yet very comfortable and relaxing, with great food and the nicest vibes. The LiveAboard team was also very accomodating and perfectly communicated with us from booking to arrival.
