The boat and crew far exceeded our expectations. The liveaboard experience was excellent. Wooden boats are different than steel hull boats, and Amira performed beautifully as a dive boat. The meals had something for everyone (including peanut butter and Nutella and the seafood was outstanding. Diving and snorkeling was problem free, with easy access to great sites. As we sometimes sailed near and observed other boats, it was easy to be proud to be on Amira!Recommended for: 1) The boat, Amira, is large and very comfortable in every way. 2) The crew, both on board and in the Zodiacs, were unexceptionally helpful. 3) The other guests were pleased with their experiences.

Review: MSV Amira; Book: MSV Amira 9.1 Superb from £286; $360; €332

Amazing boat and even better crewThe crew leader/dive guide, Sonia, is fantastic; so knowledgeable and experienced. She has an amazing way with people and made everyone feel comfortable and well cared for as well as bringing a great sense of humour to the trip. The second dive guide, Eric, is also very helpful and is great at balancing a laid-back attitude with an attention to safety. The rest of the crew are amazingly helpful and diligent. They are constantly cleaning and helping out all the customers.

They will help you get kitted/unkitted every dive and it’s so nice to be greeted with a warm drink every time you come out the water. The boat itself is beautiful. Comfortable rooms with A/C and hot showers. Plenty of areas to relax inside and outside the boat. The quality of the furnishings was also surprisingly good. Last but not least, the food! The most delicious 3 course meals 3 x a day as well as lovely cooked snacks during the day (I was a particular fan of the samosas). I would pay good money for this quality of food in a restaurant so to be treated to it 3 x a day every day is a real luxury.Recommended for: Crew, Food, boat facilities.

Review: MY Emperor Superior; Book: MY Emperor Superior 9 Superb from £99; $121; €113

Excellent trip and crew. Got to see Hammerheads, Manta Rays, White Tip Sharks, swim-threws, we had excellent weather and guides were fantastic! Great food and service by the crew, definitely do it again soon.” Recommended for: Great sites, service and food.

Review: MY Blue Horizon; Book: MY Blue Horizon 9 Superb from £87; $106; €99

Great diving, friendly staff, and nice boat! Snorkeling in Hanifaru Bay with ~10 mantas. Night snorkeling with whaleshark feeding off the back of the boat (attracted by night light). Diving with whitetip sharks in Helengeli Thila (channel dive, strong current). The food was good and plentiful. Diving was relaxed (3 dives/day). On my trip, there were only 7 divers total (the boat supports up to 18), so there was plenty of space. But the common areas are large, so it wouldn’t have been an issue anyway. Diving off a doni (second boat) meant that the main boat wasn’t cluttered with drying gear etc.” Recommended for: Diving with mantas and whaleshark, relaxed atmosphere, friendly staff.

Review: MV Princess Haseena; Book: MV Princess Haseena 9 Superb from £284; $364; €332

Brilliant dive trip, led by wonderful guides, very comfortable boat and great food! The sunset night dive with the large number of Nurse and other sharks. Sting Ray City was amazing, as was the Manta Ray dive. Personally, i would have liked to have had the option for more night dives. The boat was really spacious and very clean, the food plentiful and varied, the crew were very friendly and helpful. Ali and Coco were really patient and great dive guides. Boat crew very helpful with equipment when needed. Wonderful trip!” Recommended for: The marine life, the crew and the food, especially the maldivian dishes!

Review: Nautilus Two; Book: Nautilus Two 9 Superb from £153; $193; €177

Magical Experience with Mantas. Amazing experience onboard with the team of the Maldives Aggressor. The boat was well maintained, the cabins spacious and the service thoughtful and friendly. The dives were well planned and underwater, the dive masters took care of the guests in terms of spotting creatures big and small and ensured all guests had a wonderful and safe time. The diving was very good with a variety of pelegics including manta rays, eagle rays, reef sharks spotted on nearly every dive as well as plenty of colorful reef fish of different varieties. A magical exprience with plenty of highlights that guests will remember for a long time!Recommended for: Crew, Diving, Pelegics.

Review: MV Maldives Aggressor II; Book: MV Maldives Aggressor II 9 Fabulous from £226; $285; €262

Great dives around the classic central atolls route. Saw everything and more than we expected!” The local dive guides knew the sites very well and done very well to keep us diving away from other boats (some popular sites could see up to 8 boats diving). We saw a whale shark at Dhangetti, manta rays at two cleaning stations, guitar, reef, black and white tips and nurse sharks on other dive sites as well as a tiger shark out in the blue at fish tabk. The nurse shark dive at alimatha was insanely good. The nurse sharks also stayed at the back of the boat all night whilst we ate dinner and into the next morning and you could jump in and snorkel if you liked. We dives with 100’s of stingrays, bull rays and even came across a mobula during a safety stop. For me the bbq and football on the uninhabited island meerufenfushi was magical, watching the sunset and then the sky fill with stars and watching shooting stars rain down as we took the zodiak back to the boat. Would like to see the boat lessen its environmental impact. They’re a bit behind some of the more expensive boats in terms of measures in place to offset customers impact. There is apetite for it from all divers. Overall a fantastic trip, the variety meant it was more an adventure than just a dive trip and I couldn’t have asked for more in that respect.” Recommended for: Dive guides, dive sites, friendly crew.
