Amazing Diving Experience with EcoProDivers: Above and Beyond!
"The crew made every effort to ensure an enjoyable diving experience. I was particularly struck by the crew's friendly smiles and excellent service. When two manta rays appeared on the surface, we were allowed to go snorkeling, which was great because I could swim with beautiful fish unlike in deeper waters. Additionally, with the captain's help, we were able to spot whales in the ocean. The meals were excellent, with refreshing drinks and snacks provided after each dive. I’m truly grateful for his thoughtful support throughout the trip. Also, I learned a lot from my guide during the dives."

You are expected to be able to dive to a standard as per the certification and experience requirements outlined for each itinerary and, as such, able to complete the dive with your buddy or by following the dive guide.
The guides may decide, based on each diver's ability, not to enter the water for every dive and will remain onboard, providing surface support only.
The maximum depth for diving in the Maldives is 30 metres with an equally qualified buddy. Your maximum diving depth will be dependent on your certification and the experience of both buddies. It is your responsibility to check what depths your insurance policy covers you before your arrival.
