Cabins

Blue Shark One is a 30m wood-hull liveaboard boat that takes up to 16 guests to the best dive spots in the Maldives, whether it’s around the central, northern or southern atolls. The boat is powered by a Yanmar 350 PS engine and can cruise at 10 knots.

Blue Shark is a comfortable yet economy option for diving in the Maldives. The social areas include an air-conditioned saloon, as well as a partially shaded upper social area and sundeck replete with loungers and bean bags. The saloon also acts as the dining area, where buffet style meals are served, and features an entertainment system and a library of books. There is also a Lavazza coffee machine and a bar with chilled beer on tap.

Guests are accommodated in 9 double/twin cabins with private bathrooms on the lower deck that is wood panelled throughout. All cabins offer both air-conditioning and fans for personal comfort. Cabins are stocked with biodegradable shampoo and shower gel, and guests are issued with a refillable aluminium water bottle for the duration of the trip and metal drinking straws in order to reduce waste. You can also make use of the onboard wifi for cruise connectivity from your cabin or from the social areas onboard.

All diving activities are conducted from the accompanying 60 ft (18m) dhoni, where equipment is stored and tanks are filled. It features the tank compressors, plus emergency oxygen, camera storage and rinse tanks. There is also a camera rinse tank on the dhoni so that underwater photographers can keep their equipment in tiptop condition between dives. Blue Shark’s dive cruises are often attended by a member of the Maldives Whaleshark Research Programme, who provide fascinating insights and marine presentations.
