Highlights
The Sachika liveaboard, by Top Class Cruising, is a 33-meter/108-feet custom-built liveaboard that has been Awarded the “Best Dive Safari Boat’’by the National Boating Association of the Maldives for two editions. The Sachika has 10 cabins, including 3 suites, 1 junior suite, 4 standard double or twin cabins, and 2 twin cabins, catering to 22 guests. Each cabin has an air conditioner, en-suite bathroom, mini-bar, and private entertainment hubs. The sundeck with its jacuzzi is perfect for relaxation between dives and stargazing at night. Meals are served in the A/C restaurant, and guests can sip on some tasty cocktails while lounging on the aft deck. The trailing dhoni (a traditional Maldivian vessel) is used for diving and keeping all the tanks and compressors separate so travelers can sleep. A full snorkeling itinerary for non-divers includes activities like fishing, beach visits, and treks.
Aboard the Sachika, guests will cruise through central and deep south atolls and dive at Male Atolls, Rasdhoo, Meemu, and Ari Atolls. The cruise sets out to the south with the exploration of a trawler that sank three decades ago and became a home for the local needlefish and scorpionfish. In the western part of the atoll, it is easy to meet manta rays coming close to the reef to enjoy the many cleaning stations. The sea is rich in marine life and is full of whale sharks, scorpion fish, glassfish, reef sharks, Napoleon wrasse, green turtles, beautiful corals, dolphins, and more.

Great experience onboard of the Sachika
I had a great time during my trip to Maldives onboard the Sachika. Really tasty food, amazing crew, the boat was very comfortable. I went on the Yoga special week, it was fantastic doing yoga on pristine beaches watching the sunset and also on board. The diving planning was excellent so we almost always avoided being in crowded places. Really recommend them.

Five stars experience, five star service! I’ll be back again for Deep South trip
All dives are well organized some points are challenging but safe and relaxed! Excellent local dive guides! Shark dive and Manta dive are definitely my favorites. The boat is beautiful and spacious, I can always find my own spots to do yoga or reading for relax after each dive. The cruise manager is an amazing Italian young lady, she is also an very experienced dive guide who will take care of guests both on board and underwater!

Amazing first liveaboard experience!!!
I had the best first liveaboard experience I could've asked for. I checked many different boats before I booked Sachika and I'm so glad I booked the trip with Sachika. The crew performs outstandingly behind the scenes and you don't even notice them. You come from a dive, breakfast, lunch or dinner are ready. You come from another dive and some snacks are prepared and your room is done. The diving was amazing with Bea, Andrea, Athi and all the other awesome guides I missed now. Andrea helped me to fix my long term breathing problem, like no other dive instructor could help me before in the last dives I did. He also helped me fix my feet with bandaides, after I got some hurting spot from the fins.About the diving: I had the most wonderful experience of my whole life becuase of the Manta night dive. WHAT AN INCREDIBLE EXPERIENCE!!!Furthermore we saw tons of sharks, even 2x Whalesharks!! The diving was great overall and I always felt safe with the equipment and the instructors/guides. Also we had great people on the boat and we were a great group. Thank you so much for everything! Loved it 100%

Great diving in crazy weather
We had an amazing time aboard Sachika, despite some challenges with the weather. Although we were unable to follow our planned schedule around the Maldives and it seemed that the mantas had left Baa Atoll—with all the cleaning stations and even Hanifaru Bay being manta-free—the crew went above and beyond to make our trip special. In the end, we were thrilled to experience not just the excitement of Manta encounters but also the incredible thrill of whale shark sightings, both while snorkeling and diving.

- Countless mantas, whale sharks, 10 species of shark, turtles, etc.... crew willing to go extra mile. comfortable cabins with the largest bathroom I have ever seen on any boat.

Amazing experience on Sachika!
I did a lot of research into Maldives liveaboards and am so glad we picked Sachika! It was a perfect week. The whole crew is amazing—Martina, Claudio, Chacha, Ali, Rashi, and Herbert are great, as are the rest of the staff on the boat. The boat itself is super nice and clean, and there is plenty of space to relax after dives. And the food was great. I am vegan and the kitchen did an incredible job—they made me special dishes and always labeled things as vegan in the buffet. There were also lots of fun activities; we loved the beach BBQ and island happy hour. Finally, the dives were life-changing!! We wished we could have stayed longer. Thank you to everyone!
