The Seafari family of resorts and liveaboards is well known for offering excellent facilities, and the highest standards for safety and fun – and Seafari Explorer I ticks all these boxes. This boat provides adventurous itineraries throughout the Maldives, lasting up to 11-days at sea. All of their voyages include a variety of optional excursions like manta ray snorkelling and island treks, plus access to the best dive sites along the way. You'll take the plunge on channels and walls, experience fast-paced drift dives, and visit cleaning stations in search of manta rays.
