Experience the "Magic of the Maldives" on board a luxury liveaboard this March!

Cruising through the atolls of the Maldives during the peak season, we'll seek out the best diving this amazing archipelago has to offer. Three daytime dives (with several night dives during the week) are interspersed with excursions to resort islands and simply cruising through one of the most beautiful island landscapes on the planet.

This is not a "dive, dive, dive!" liveaboard. The focus is on quality of dives, not quantity. Our cruise allows for a leisurely pace and plenty of time to explore islands you may have always dreamed of visiting. Diving takes place from a separate "dhoni", maximizing space on board the M/Y Ark Royal, as well as keeping it dry. The feel is more like a luxury yacht than a dive boat.

Our planned itinerary includes Ari Atoll, where on our last visit we spotted a whale shark and many mantas. While such encounters are never guaranteed, the possibility of them is part of the "Magic of the Maldives". The topside scenery and schools of beautiful reef fish unique to the Indian Ocean will offer plenty to enchant you; with hope for icing on the cake.

This is your opportunity to explore the Maldives' best diving in the peak season in the company of gay divers and our friends on board a beautiful vessel. Join us to experience Indian Ocean diving in luxury in 2011!

Our Package Includes:

  • 7 nights aboard the M/Y Ark Royal in air-conditioned double occupancy staterooms with private bath
  • Breakfast, lunch, and dinner, plus morning and afternoon snacks
  • Bottled water, tea, coffee and juice
  • 3 or 4 dives a day
  • Free Nitrox for those certified to use it
  • Airport transfers on day of cruise arrival and departure
  • Tanks, weights and weight belt

Not Included: Airfare, dive gear rental if needed, soft drinks, beer, wine and other beverages not listed above, spa services, tips (10% recommended), government taxes and fees, and items of a personal nature.

Maldives is a moderate, recently democratic Muslim country. Visitors who drink alcohol will find it readily available for tourists, but at a higher cost and more limited selection than most destinations. No tourist may bring alcohol into the country, and alcoholic beverages may only be purchased from the ship's bar, so please budget accordingly if you do care to drink.

Flights:

Plan to arrive on the afternoon of March 6 or earlier. Emirates offers non-stop service to Dubai from San Francisco, Los Angeles, Houston and Toronto, and from Dubai non-stop service onward to Male (MLE), capital of the Maldives.

Singapore Airlines flies to Male through Singapore. This flight arrives late at night, so plan to arrive on March 5 or earlier and we'll suggest a hotel.

Numerous airlines and charter flights depart from Europe to Male.

Bangkok Airways offers service from BKK, and Malaysian flies from Kuala Lumpur.

Please contact us for assistance and suggestions with air travel and hotel reservations if arriving early.

Deposit:
$700 deposit to hold space. Second payment of $1000 due at 180 days. Balance due 120 days prior to departure.

Ask us about a post-liveaboard adventure to Sri Lanka!
