10 Best Liveaboards in Maldives

The Maldives are ideal for a premier liveaboard diving site. As a novice or an experienced diver, exploring the underworld of Maldives is astonishingly captivating. From the beginning of the dive to its deepest point, every aspect of the Maldives offers a diving epic. Furthermore, the body has an endless assortment of life so no two dives are ever the same. 


The heart of the Maldives is FushiMalu. There lies an endless feast of life waiting to be explored. The area is filled with striking sawtooth gorges and mindblowing hard/soft reefs. To many peoples amazement, each turn Peschiera reveals has a variety creatures to offer. The fishing techniques practiced at the island have proven to attract a blend of different Polynesian birds to nature. 


The Maldives is made up of many small islands that extend almost 700 km in length between the Lakshadweep Islands to the North and the Chagos Islands to the South. Together with other islands, they form a wide underwater atoll and coral reef basin.


Scuba diving enthusiasts from all corners of the world love to visit Maldives, and for good reason. The archipelago is perfectly situated in the Indian Ocean which paired with the warm waters, beautiful coral reefs, and rich marine life make it one of the best places for diving. A lot of divers choose liveaboard trips so that they can dive at multiple sites and fully appreciate the sensesational underwater world of the Maldives. 


For those wishing to go on a diving excursion, we recommend going to Maldives between January and April. This is the period when the Manta rays and whale sharks arrive in the Atolls due to the northeast monsoon season. Although diving is possible throughout the year, the Maldives is exceptionally captivating between these months.


Liveaboards in Maldives provide itineraries that cover the primary diving sites of North Male Atoll, Ari Atoll, Baa Atoll, Hanifaru Bay, Rasdhoo and many other areas, including remote atolls in the far north and south where you likely won’t encounter other liveaboards.
