Live-aboard in Maldives
Live-aboards offers you the best of both worlds. The chance to
see many of the 1,200 beautiful islands of the Maldives, and the
opportunity to experience firsthand some of the world's greatest
dive sites. Many people
believe that a liveaboard cruise is the best way of really appreciating the
unique beauty of the Maldives, 99% of which is water. Liveaboard
operators offer you several possibilities. You may choose between
a diving safari and a relaxing cruise through the atolls, which
lets you be in total harmony with nature as your boat winds its
way through the multitude of islands.
Most of
the vessels are equipped with professional diving equipment and
staffed by qualified diving instructors. While some vessels offer
standard accommodation and facilities, others offer luxury
accommodation with all the modern amenities.
A safari
makes it possible for you to sample many varied dive sites at
different atolls and locations and present you with the chance to
sample island life, visit virgin uninhabited islands and
appreciate the unique beauty of different resort islands.
Life on board follows the
rhythm of the sun; what with diving, snorkeling, visits to local
villages and walks on desert islands, there will be no time to get
bored, and the days will pass pleasantly.
Confirmed scuba divers
will be in the water constantly, while those who love to relax
will be lying lazily on the bridge, perhaps reading a good book.
Everyone enjoys the bright and colorful sunsets, perhaps with a
long cool drink.
In the evenings, perhaps
if you are in the mood, get off at a resort close by and enjoy a
drink or two at the bar, or get a break from the relaxation of the
day by taking part in the disco. On the other hand it could be a
fire-lit barbecue on the beach of a desert island, under the
stars, or enjoying local music at a fishing village.
And then, it’s the end of
another memorable day in paradise and off to sleep, to wake up
anew, to more of the same dream.S
