NEW Maldives Liveaboard Savings

Regaldive is offering a great range of savings on Maldives liveaboards this Autumn, starting with the latest addition to the programme, MV Emperor Atoll.

This 26m liveaboard caters for 12 guests in six twin-berth cabins and its comfortable size makes this boat ideal for charter by diving centres and groups of friends. MV Emperor Atoll might be short on size but there is certainly no compromise on the diving. Divers have the pick of five fantastic itineraries that make the most of the seasonal highlights of the Maldives.

Until the end of 2014, divers can join The Best of the Maldives trip aboard MV Emperor Atoll at an introductory rate starting from just £759pp. This itinerary takes in the iconic sites of North Male, South Male and Ari Atoll and offers every chance to encounter mantas, whale sharks, sharks and much more. This package includes seven nights cabin share, three meals per day plus afternoon snacks and one BBQ night, unlimited drinking water, tea and coffee, 17 dives per week, guide, tanks, free nitrox fills and weights. Flights are not included but can be arranged by Regaldive with a variety of scheduled airlines to take advantage of the best available seasonal offers. The Best of the Maldives itinerary is also offered on the larger MV Emperor Voyager.

For the 2015 season, MV Emperor Atoll will introduce the Sharktastic and Pelagic Magic itineraries, as well as a series of back to back itineraries that will take full advantage of the peak manta season (August to October) visiting legendary Hanifaru Bay in Baa atoll and other more northerly dive sites.

Also in the Maldives, divers can save up to £290pp on selected trips aboard MV Ari Queen this Autumn. This attractive and spacious boat is a favourite with Regaldive guests and offers a choice of cabin styles for a maximum of 20 divers. MV Ari Queen operates out of Male and follows a flexible itinerary around the central atolls to maximise chances to see whitetip sharks, grey sharks, manta rays, turtles, whale sharks and even hammerheads. Fully inclusive packages start from just £1493pp to include scheduled flights, transfers, seven nights cabin share on a full board basis and 17 dives.

Regaldive is also offering last minute availability on MY Sheena at the discounted rate of £2170pp on a Southern Maldivian trip departing 4 October 2014. MY Sheena offers guests the chance to dive rarely visited sites across Meemu, Thaa and Laamu atolls where there is considerably less tourism development and some truly original and exploratory diving. This package is fully inclusive of scheduled flights, sea plane transfers, seven nights cabin share on a full board basis, all diving with free nitrox fills, and offers a saving of £382pp on the original price.
