M/Y Sheena diving the Maldives
LIVEABOARDS OUT OF MEEMU
Meemu is one of the 5 most southerly atolls in the
Maldives, with very little tourism development. This itinerary follows a
combination of established dive sites alongside exploratory dive sites that have
rarely or never been dived until now. This is challenging and pioneering
diving, characterised by waters that are abundant in the marine life one expects
from the Maldives.
Meemu, Thaa and Laamu atoll itineraries are conducted from M/V Sheena, the first liveaboard to operate in these waters. This area will appeal to divers looking to travel well beyond the tourist map and experience some truly original diving. Access to Medhufushi is via Male and involves an internal flight by seaplane.

Cyclone has long been a favourite with UK divers, the first real luxury liveaboard operated by Tornado Marine, she was voted “Liveaboard of the Year” in 2003. After a complete rebuild at the end of 2007 she has now returned to work on our Northern Red Sea routes out of Sharm and also Djibouti for the Whale Shark season of 2008-09. Whilst she has retained her revolutionary sleek lines and distinctive appearance from the outside, regular guests would be hard pressed to recognise anything once onboard. In line with the latest boats in the fleet she now boasts an upstairs saloon complete with bar and plasma screen, a totally refitted restaurant with individual dining chairs, and an extensive sun deck complete with sun beds and Jacuzzi. The work was not confined just to the interior layout.
She has been fitted with new more powerful engines, giving her better
cruising speed and comfort, and also new generators. In order to
accommodate the changes her hull length has been increased and she now
measures an impressive 34 metres overall. A true Red Sea classic
liveaboard brought totally up to today’s high standards!

Bay of Tadjoura and Whale Sharks
onboard the
M/Y Deli

Between the months of October - January Bay of Tadjoura Djibouti is home to resting migrating whale sharks. Guests have the chance to dive and snorkel on a daily basis with these gentle giants in an area known as the "Devils Cauldron" It is common to see many whale sharks including juvenile's who stay within the safe confines of the Djibouti coast line. However its not just the whale sharks that the Djibouti waters bless divers with. During the same months sightings of Manta Rays, Pilot Whales, Dolphins and sharks have all been spotted. Grey Reef sharks and nurse sharks are the most common but its not unheard of to see tigers and hammerheads. |
