Scuba Diving with the Princess Haleema
It’s always a great advantage when a liveaboard has a diving dhoni to assist in the operation. Indeed, it’s the case of the Princess Haleema. The mother ship is then quiet and spacious. Plus, the Princess Haleema has a huge diving dhoni from which the entire scuba diving operation unfolds (see picture below).
The usual route of Princess Haleema is North Male, Ari, Vaavu, and South Male Atolls. That being said, there are occasionally special trips to the deep south atolls on the schedule, giving an avid diver the possibility to experience untouched dive sites.
Price starts at 1,764$US for 8 days / 7 nights – The Central Atolls
or 2,363$US for 11 days / 10 nights – The Central & South Atolls

This was a fabulous boat. Very French – we were the only two Brits but made very welcome. It exceeded our expectations in all respects. Good cabins and public areas. Food excellent and plentiful. Saw reef mantas and one oceanic. Lots of sharks, turtles. Dive guide Sebastien could not have done more to ensure we had a good time. Great variety of dive sites – 24 dives in 10 days. Take a reef hook and SMB.
Does exactly what it says and more. Really good team on the boat and dhoni. Great diving , lots of sea life. Dive guides really high quality and good fun. Sebastien, Norwen and Arrish. Great food, great boat, great company
A very nice ship for travel !

Diving is perfect, itineraries and dive sites offered are excellent, diving facilities are also very good. All the dive guides are very nice people and highly professional and skilled divers. They create a very special friendly atmosphere on the ship. Simone, Fabbio, Stefano and Shephew , you all are SUPER ! We didn’t have a minute to get bored : having meals, snorkeling, diving, fishing, exploring islands ….and even shopping ( in one of the local villages) ! You made every day very bright and active!
The ship is very clean, neat and stylish. The CREW is just AMAZING !!! So friendly and helpful, polite and modest and very very very responsible! All the crew treat the guests like their dearest family or friends. We felt very comfortable and happy !
