Maldives

I organise and host dive trips to the Maldives onboard the charter boat Southern Cross. Having done some decent diving (Rowley Shoals, Tonga, Shark Bay, Ningaloo), I’m surprised to say this is by far the best of the lot when it comes to diversity and value for money.

Finding a trustworthy boat with good crew and guests can be difficult. This is a reliably organised high quality trip, full of good people.

20 guests, a seperate dive boat, 3 dives a day, fully catered meals, a professional trip video and image library, photography / filming / free diving workshops, a beach bonfire party, fishing and more.

Check out the diving for yourself in this video from my 2025 trip:

I’ll be hosting two 7 night trips in 2027:

March 21 - March 28

March 28 - April 4

Twin share rooms are currently available for $2,600USD per person. It’s a $400USD deposit, 50% before June, and the balance before December.

You must have your Open Water dive certification, travel and scuba dive insurance. Flights to and from the departure destination (Malé Airport) are not included. It’s recommended that you have your Advanced Scuba certificate to make the most of the dives.

Availability and trip dates are not locked in until minimum required bookings are reached. So, if you’re interested, check out the info PDF and get in touch. Looking forward to having you along!

Here’s a couple testimonials and a recap of 2026:
