Do you love the ocean? Does your idea of a dream holiday include spending days surrounded by turquoise blue waters and exploring surreal worlds beneath the waves? Well for those who crave for such an adventure, a liveaboard trip in the Maldives is the perfect answer!
A liveaboard is basically a well equipped boat or other sea-worthy vessel that has been designed with suitable living quarters; this gives you the chance to spend days on end out at sea, visiting sites perfect for diving and snorkelling as well as secluded islands for some fun in the sand.
Such liveaboard trips coupled with diving in Maldives offer a truly unforgettable getaway and are well worth considering. While you do get both local operators as well as international ones, you should always check not only the prices of each tour but also the experience of these operators, what kind of insurance they offer and how new or old their vessels are.
This tropical destination has much to offer intrepid travellers and sites like The Maldives Travel do provide useful information not only on aspects like dive sites you can visit, but the other experiences that await.
So what are some of the dive sites you can explore while on a liveaboard cruise? If heading to the South Ari Atoll then sites like Kudarah Thila and Dhiga Thila provide some great opportunities to see marine and coral life.
Exciting drifts along with rays and sharks can be seen at spots such as Guraidhoo Kandu in the South Male Atoll. These are just some of the diving hotspot out of the countless many that can be found in these waters.
Generally, a liveaboard operator will have a planned itinerary to the best spots though you should ask beforehand and see what they are. Some do offer the chance for you customise your own itinerary as well.
Do remember, that liveaboard trips can be enjoyed not only as a group or couple but if you are travelling solo as well and provide a wonderful way to experience carefree life on the ocean.
