What Is Liveaboard Diving

Whether you are totally new to this type of experience and keen to give scuba diving a try, or you have been before, live abroad trips are highly recommended.

A Liveaboard is basically a diving trip on a luxury boat where you’ll get instructors, meals, a cabin and get guided to amazing dive sites. Depending on your destination (and weather conditions) you will get to go on multiple dives per day and get instructed by experienced dive masters.

It doesn’t matter whether you’re a complete beginner or an expert diver, if you have an interest in everything scuba or underwater photography, liveaboards offer the perfect chance to live the dream.
