MALDIVES Liveaboard Holidays
MV Carpe Diem
A HIGH STANDARD LUXURY LIVEABOARD
MV Carpe Diem is a 35m liveaboard built to high standards and accommodating 20 guests in 10 ensuite, air- conditioned cabins divided over three decks. It’s ideal for liveaboard diving diving in the Maldives.
The boat is accompanied by a diving dhoni (tender) and small speedboat. The local dive team of three has an abundance of experience and cater for any experience although, to get the most from the trip, the Advanced Open Water qualification is recommended.
Carpe Diem offers a standard three dives a day. The spacious dive deck has fresh water showers and toilet. Nitrox is available for FREE if qualified.
What makes the Carpe Diem stand out even more is the service provided by the dedicated crew, some of whom have been with the company for many years.
