highly recommended

We loved the variety of divespots, which together gave us an all round experience of large and small life on the reefs. The crew was great, especially the guides, and were flexible go accommodate various requests we had. It was a week our family will remember for ever.

Good diving, friendly crew

We had loads of manta encounters, including a night dive with mantas cruising over our heads. No whale shark on this trip, so fingers crossed for next time.

Great boat, great crew, great week

We had a great week! Beginning with the beautiful boat and the outstanding crew (boat, dhoni and guides) the really good atmosphere between the guests and of course the diving! We were shown the best of “the north” with lots of mantas and beautiful dive sites. We will definitely come back aboard Theia!

Great experience

Very professional diving instructors especially Francesca who took great care of us. Food was also very good and fresh fish was served regularly, crew very helpful and outgoing. Great diving experience, a lot of manta rays, sharks and turtles and many other species. Liveaboard experience is superb.

Great diving trip

The diving guides worked hard to fulfill our expectations. The briefings were comprehensive and dives were well organised. The diving dhoni was spacious, comfortable and well organised. All the staff of Theia was friendly and helpfull. The food was excellent and plentifull. The cabin and bathroom was clean and comfortable. This was one of the best liveboard trip I have taken part in. I loved the idea of internal rails and big pegs to dry clothes and towels.

Brilliant diving guides. Comfortable, spacious, well organised dhoni. Food.

Excellent and knowledgable diving guides in a secure and very comfortable boat with very good food

The dives in itself under the guidance of Hassan and Satho. The waleshark and the Manta experience. The relaxed time on board between dives and very good meals. The very personal treatment by Hassan and his whole crew. We can very much recommend to book a trip on the Theia.

great (experienced) diving

Theia is spacious and well equiped. Very friendly staff, from boat guys to diving guides. love the concept of the dhoni as separate dive boat. great variety in dives and fauna/flora: from nudies and crustaceans to manta ray and grey or white tip reef sharks and nurse sharks ! due to surges and rip currents i wouldn't recommend this trip to new divers: you need to (manage your) dive independently, so best to first build experience and confidence in calmer waters.

Extremely comfortable dive boat with great diving

I really enjoyed the night we saw mantas and sharks off the back of the boat as they came to the surface attracted by the light. I also really enjoyed the beach BBQ - the staff put a lot of work into making that enjoyable for us. The diving was really great - I'd been waiting 8 years to see a manta ray and I got to see plenty on a crowd pleasing dive with tons of mantas and sharks. The above water scenery was great too! .

Recommended for
The best 3 things were the size and spaciousness of the boat, the extremely comfortable dive dhoni and the diving (particularly the manta rays).
