”Simply incredible. The crew were fantastic, very friendly and accommodating to the group. Dives groups were 4-7 and our guides were great. The boat itself is lovely, cabins clean and surprisingly spacious with ensuites. The food was great, it’s an Italian boat so lots of Italian food but some local and international fare as well. The best part though was the diving. On an 11 day/10 night itinerary from Male to Addu we saw: – Tiger Sharks – Scalloped Hammerheads – Whale Sharks – Manta Rays – Eagle Rays – Schooling grey reef and nurse sharks (hundreds) – 50+ turtles – Schooling Barracuda – Schooling tuna & jacks – Beautiful coral reefs (especially in the deep south) We also regularly stopped on remote islands and relaxed in the sun. You won’t regret booking with them!” Recommended for: Tiger Sharks, Hammerheads and Whale Sharks.
”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!
”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.
”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.
”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.
”The best liveaboard in the Maldives! This was by far the best liveaboard and dive holiday I’ve ever been on (previously been on Leo in the Maldives and another liveaboard in the Philippines, and also diving in Indonesia, Oman, Sicily, and Iceland). The main reason for this was definitely the incredible atmosphere created by all the staff, who were so friendly and made it such a wonderful week!
The boat itself is very comfortable, the food is great, and the dives were spectacular. The cabins on lower deck are beautiful wooden rooms, with powerful showers that always have hot water. The bed is made up several times a day, and the air con keeps the room cool. The food is really tasty and there is lots of it, and it is served on the table, instead of buffet style, which is much nicer.
There are 3 shaded sun decks with loungers and bean bags, and there is always loads of chilled filtered water to drink. The dive tender is really large and the boat staff are so helpful – they always helped me carry my tank in and out of the boat since I had a back operation. The dives themselves were brilliant, and the briefings were always thorough and well explained. The dive guides are great – ours was Shamoon, and he was amazing!
Always so friendly, fun, and helpful. The GM, Alex, was on the boat the week we were there and he was so kind, friendly, and fun! Some other amazing experiences were drinking from coconuts on a beach while listening to music with the staff and guests. Snorkelling at the back of the boat with a whale shark and dolphins who stayed all night and who we had to ourselves!
Watching a pod of pilot whales from the boat – the captain followed them for us for half an hour so we could get a better look! This was one of the best holidays I’ve been on, and I will definitely be booking Eco Blue next time I’m in the Maldives! It surpassed my expectations on every count. Thank you so much!” Recommended for: Dive guides, staff, food.
”Great dives and value! The diving was more advanced than I expected (I only have 30 logged dives) and the food was better. We had a great time. Do note that the seas and currents can be pretty rough in the Maldives (depending on the time of the year). But I would definitely recommend the Maldives and the Carpe Diem to my diving friends!” Recommended for: Great diving, food and value for money.
