Relaxed diving with sharks and rays
It is a different diving experience than the Red Sea, for example. Less color and sight and small fish but for the big really recommended

Unforgettable stay
I took a 14 day cruise from the south of the Maldives to Male Thanks to Maa'dhu and Denis for all these beautiful dives Sharks galore and beautiful encounters with eagle rays in particular The only downside would be a cabin a bit old-fashioned but personally I came for some beautiful dives and they were beautiful The atmosphere was excellent, the food varied and of quality Thank you to all the crew of the horizon for this beautiful vacation

Beautiful liveaboard in the Maldives
Had a beautiful liveaboard that left nothing to be desired. The crew and dive guides went out of their way to make for a pleasant experience. A spontaneous route change, which was discussed with all divers, led to unforgettable dives with manta rays and whale sharks. We also got to see some sharks. A big thank you to the captain, the entire ship's crew and also the dive guides. That's exactly how I introduced my first liveaboard.An unforgettable experience with the Horizon 3.

Amazing Liveaboard Trip
We have spent a week on the Blue Horizon III as a couple. But you could also join the boat as a single traveler because you get to know so many people from all over the world. The diving was also very nice. We have been on different places and saw amazing things just line sharks, mantas, many many different fishes, octopus, scorpion fish and many many more. Between the dives and the food you can have a chat or take a good rest in your comfy room or somewhere else on the boat. We loved this week and would book a trip with the Horizon Blue again.

A recommended choice for first time divers in Maldives.
It’s a very pleasant experience and economic choice for all-level divers. The schedule may not be so punctual with the team yet the choice is made on safety first priority. Solo traveler has no worries as people, both guests and crews, are friendly.

- The guide Steve is very caring and supportive. He was very professional in showing us routes and animals and tackling difficult weather situations. We were in storm for one night with the weather sudden change yet he showed profession and calmness that helped the whole team back to boat safe. He’s very responsive for whatever question and requires from team, also other guests on the boat. He cared a lot about his team and provided personal guidance and coach to every team member.. Crew is very friendly and supportive who spots guest’s needs and offer handful support whenever occurs.. Food is changing everyday with a western taste preference, providing diverse dessert options and a very comprehensive coffee machine..
