Comments This was my second time in the Maldives and was superior in all ways= the crew, the dive masters, the accommodations, all of it. And the diving was super too! Anytime someone looked at a crew member they were smiling and gracious, helpful and accommodating, we even spent one delightful evening eating bar-b-q and playing on a deserted island with a hand-crafted sand sculpture of a whale shark to greet us when we arrived. The food was exceptional and the service was first class. I've been diving for 51 years and have been on most of the Aggressors and lots of other liveaboards---my preferred form of diving adventure---and this one really beats them all. Diving off the smaller boat made getting ready a breeze, and I was a little leary that my advanced age(81) would bother them---but they were splendid about it, and insisted on taking off my fins and gear before I got back on the boat--(it really wasn't necessary but I loved it!)And the divemaster I was buddy with was solicitous and caring (and cute too!). This was a great trip made better by the people!!!
