All dives from the Emperor Virgo yacht take place from the accompanying dhoni, which gives plenty of room for kitting up and gear storage and makes getting to and from the dive sites easy.

Great off-peak season diving
Great diving and a well run ship. crew was highly attentive. Even though it was off season and had a small passenger load, the crew maintained a high level of focus and service. Food was consistently good and the rooms were well maintained (and quite spacious on the top deck).

Amazing diving, amazing boat & crew
Everything was top notch. I love the Maldives. We saw 6 species of sharks in one week and countless Mantas. Whale shark and hammerheads were to of my favorite along with the night dives with Mantas and Nurse Sharks. The diving guides are outstanding, thank you Andrea Reeko and Megan. Crew is great and the boat as well with great food the whole week.
