The main deck of the Emperor Virgo is home to the large indoor salon with an entertainment area and dining room.

Meals combine international and local dishes; a free glass of wine is included with dinner. The sun deck has comfortable loungers and offers a relaxing space to unwind between dives.
All dives from the Emperor Virgo yacht take place from the accompanying dhoni, which gives plenty of room for kitting up and gear storage and makes getting to and from the dive sites easy.

Loved it
Despite mechanical problems (a big but also very rare issue, no one to blame), the crew went above and beyond to accommodate us and make our experience the best it could be. I had an amazing time. The dives were great and we all saw what we came for (yes, including a whale shark). I definitely recommend this trip and would definitely pick this company again.

Superior experience with great people
My personal highlight was actually the crew. Everyone always had a smile on their faces and everyone did an outstanding job. The chef Chanaka was just amazing. For this reason alone, the trip on the Virgo is worth it. The guides were also great and always professionally ensured that the group was safe on the one hand and a lot of fun on the other.
