Cabins:

The lower deck features four cabins with convertible double or single beds, as well as two cabins with a double bed. The main deck has two cabins with a double bed. The four double cabins on the upper deck, like the cabins on the lower deck, are each equipped with adjustable double or single beds. All cabins are modern and comfortably furnished, equipped with individually controlled air conditioning, and each has its own bathroom with a shower, sink, mirror, and towels. We provide eco-friendly shampoo and shower gel.

Meals:

Meals are served three times a day in the spacious and cozy salon; the cuisine is varied and delicious. Both local and international dishes are served buffet-style. Water, tea, and coffee are complimentary. Soft drinks, fresh juices, and alcoholic beverages (cocktails, liqueurs, wine, and beer) are available for an additional fee. If you have special dietary needs, such as vegetarian preferences or allergies, please let us know before your arrival so that the crew can prepare accordingly and ensure you are well taken care of.

Main Deck:

The main deck features an air-conditioned lounge and a stylish restaurant with a bright, modern interior. The lounge, with its cozy bar, is the perfect spot to enjoy a cocktail.

Upper Deck:

The sun deck, with areas in both the sun and shade, offers plenty of space to relax on comfortable lounge chairs.

Diving:

Dives depart from the spacious dhoni, where the equipment remains throughout the tour and where the tanks are refilled after each dive.

The maximum depth for diving in the Maldives is 30 meters. Your maximum dive depth depends on your training level and experience. Dives are led by excellent and highly experienced Maldivian guides who can accommodate almost any request. Decompression diving, solo diving, and technical diving are strictly prohibited.

We recommend that you bring the following:

mask, snorkel, fins, boots, wetsuit, regulator, BCD, SMB (with a minimum length of 5 meters during the safety stop), and a dive computer with spare batteries and a flashlight for night dives. The average water temperature is 29°C. We recommend a 3mm shorty or wetsuit. Rental equipment is available in limited quantities. Rental equipment must be
requested before the trip. We need information about your wetsuit size, weight, height, and shoe size so we can prepare the right-sized equipment for you.
All divers must use a dive computer and an SMB, and must carry a reef hook on every dive and a flashlight on night dives. Please bring your own equipment or ask us what’s available on board. The use of gloves is not permitted.

Tanks & Adapters:

We have 12-liter DIN tanks and INT adapters on board.

Electricity:

The boats have 110/120V AC and 220/240V, 3-pin UK outlets. We assume no liability for any damage caused by alternating current.

Insurance:

We require all divers to have valid insurance that covers diving accidents. You must bring proof of this insurance and present it at check-in. We assume no liability and will not cover costs such as hyperbaric chamber treatment or transportation expenses.

Important Information!!!

Due to a change in DAN Europe’s insurance terms and conditions, we are required to request a medical clearance certificate for all divers who are 75 years of age or older. The medical clearance certificate must confirm your fitness for diving as well as your general state of health. This certificate must be sent directly to Eco Pro Divers for DAN’s approval of diving activities so that we can clarify the insurance criteria for our customers in advance. Please don’t forget to specify the boat and the trip date! No diving activities may take place until the criteria for the respective customer have been clarified and approved by DAN. Please send the medical clearance form to info@ecoprodivers.com so that we can request approval from DAN for participation in diving activities prior to your arrival.

Passport and Visa:

Every guest must have a passport that is valid for at least another 6 months from the date of arrival. A 30-day visa is issued free of charge to all nationalities at the immigration counter at Male Airport. All guests must be in possession of a return or onward flight ticket. The electronic entry declaration must be completed at https://imuga.immigration.gov.mv/ 72 hours prior to arrival. Take a photo of the QR code and present it upon request.
