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. Itineraries cover the ‘Best of Maldives’, which includes the Male Atolls, Ari Atolls, and Rasdhoo & Vaavu Atoll, and is available all year, except for February & March when the Scubaspa yacht travels to the ‘Deep South’ for more remote diving suited to more experienced divers.

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.
