Best 40% last minute liveaboard deals

I’ve collated for you a list of the best 40% liveaboard deals you’ll find online. But for you to avoid disappointment, you’ll need to grab the deal you want fast and book your liveaboard trip quickly, before someone gets there before you.

My experiences shows that 40% liveaboard deals are not as common as the other discounts available, which means they won’t hang around for long. So, because of this you will need to be quick to get one of these very cheap last minute deals for your liveaboard of choice.

Also check our page with liveaboard with 20% discount, 25% discounts, 30% discount and 50% discounts too.

Also, bookmark this page, as we will keep these 40% deals updated all the time.

If you’re diving on a budget, a 40% discount will go a long——–long way to saving you money. Which means your diving money goes further. But if you’re like me, and you may not necessarily be on a budget, don’t you love big savings in any case?

In fact I’ve just saved another £800 off my next trip to Barbados, where of course I will go diving with my friend Phil at Reef and Wreckers. I hope you love to save money as much as I do, because if you do, this page makes it easy for you to find the best 40% savings for your next liveaboard dive trip.

Also, if you’ve not dived on a liveaboard before, meaning this would be your first liveaboard trip, you can save money at the same time. A slightly cheaper way of dipping your toe in the water…no pun intended.

These last minute liveaboard deals are sorted in descending Deal Date” order, where the 40% deals with the furthest “Deal Date” are at the top of the list. If you would prefer to re-sort the table into last minute offers in ascending order select “Ascending” and press “Sort“.*

You can browse the deals, compare prices, choose your holiday date and book your diving safari at the best rates online! With flexible booking terms. Also see below the liveaboard comparison table, so you can also check the customer review ratings for all liveaboards. But in particular, you can check the reviews of the liveaboard you choose in the 40% deal list.

If you would like to sort this last minute liveaboard deals list in order of, “Liveaboard Discount Total“, “Price Before Discount“, “Price After Discount” or “Tour Days“, select one of these options from the “Sort by” dropdown menu and press “Sort“.

Alone on the sea. With such a small group of guests, it was easy to find some alone time to enjoy the sea and the sky. The decks have ample covering, so you can find a shady spot if you aren’t trying to tan continuously. We were alone on the reefs 90% of the time, and usually dove in 2 groups of 4, which was great. The crew was super friendly. The cook is really good, and every meal was incredible. And they had an espresso machine! This trip was a dream, and I would definitely book again.” Recommended for: small groups, food, friendly crew.

Review: Manta Mae Phinisi; Book: Manta Mae Phinisi 9.2 Superb from £275; $347; €319

Big Room and spacious. The cruise is value for money. But the Cruise does not have a cruise director, co-ordinating everything or managing different teams. Someone has to direct the overall atmosphere of the ship. 3 diving instructors take care of 23 divers. My group of 9 is taken care by 1 instructor. So he is a bit out of touch sometimes. Felicity has to improve the software of the cruise.” Recommended for: The room is big, clean and sufficient light.. the boat is spacious and new. wifi in general is good in the dinning hall..

Review: Felicity; Book: Felicity 9.2 Superb from £171; $219; €200

Could not have been better. It was my first live aboard and I had an absolutely amazing time. Everything from the above and beyond what I expected. The rooms, the food, the equipment, the fun and relaxing atmosphere and people. The crew became fast friends, the dive masters found so many cool things underwater, the video was well made and a great souvenir. Not to mention the option of 26 dives! A really good value for filling up the logbook. Well done, Aggressor.Recommended for: The crew, the food, and 5 dives a day!

Review: MV Belize Aggressor III; Book: MV Belize Aggressor III 9.2 Superb from £241; $308; €282

Pristine corals, varied marine life and extremely comfortable boat – a good week! Dives in the marine park, especially Chain Wall and Half Moon Caye dive sites, were wonderful. We had not expected the coral to be so colourful and pristine – so much prettier than we anticipated. Also a good mixture of marine life from big reef sharks and eagle rays to plentiful small fish, crustaceans and octopus. The boat was the most spacious we’ve experienced on a liveaboard – very comfortable. And the food was outstanding. The only reason I didn’t give the diving 5 stars above is the lack of dive guiding – it was fine for us as experienced divers in easy conditions, but for less experienced divers in current, I imagine safety could be an issue.” Recommended for: Spacious boat, really excellent food, pristine corals in many sites.

Review: MY Belize Aggressor IV; Book: MY Belize Aggressor IV 9.2 Superb from £241; $308; €282
Review: BVI Aggressor; Book: BVI Aggressor 9.2 Superb from £201; $245; €229

A great crew who couldn’t do enough to help us enjoy our trip. Excellent team! We were able to enjoy as much or as little diving as we wanted at excellent dive sites with lots of marine life and outstanding support from the crew. Thank you.” Recommended for: Great crew, top notch dive boat, excellent dive sites.

Review: MV Turks and Caicos Aggressor II; Book: Turks and Caicos Aggressor II 9.2 Superb from £233; $298; €273

GREAT SAFE VERY WELL RUN DIVING OPERATION. In spite of losing 2 days due to stormy weather we had a great trip with 4 days diving. Enjoyed all the dives because its what I love doing, we had very close encounter with very friendly and large eagle ray,saw turtles every day,did 2 night dives and saw many nurse sharks night hunting so in spite of losing bit of time saw plenty!Recommended for: Diving at night,Sea Life,Great Crew.

Review: Turks and Caicos Explorer II; Book: Turks and Caicos Explorer II 9.2 Superb from £232; $297; €271
