Maldives Blue Force One Liveaboard

In the 2026 to 2029 brochure a 7-night Central Atolls week in a Deluxe cabin costs US$2,890 per person in November and December 2026, US$3,190 from January to mid-April 2027 and US$2,590 to US$2,990 from July to December 2027. Southern Hemisphere weeks are US$3,590. The Master cabin adds US$100, a Junior Suite US$200 and a Master Suite US$300. On top, about US$579 per person is paid on board for a 7-night trip.

On 10 November 2026 the Blue Force booking system showed the 5 and 12 December 2026 weeks at US$2,390 instead of US$2,890, and the 19 December week at US$2,490 instead of US$2,990, in the lowest cabin still open. Offers change weekly, so ask us before you book flights.

Airport to boat transfers both ways, seven nights full board with water, tea and coffee, 18 dives with an S80 tank, weights, a dive guide and the dive dhoni, Starlink internet in the common areas, and travel, diving and cancellation insurance on Blue Force’s own policy terms. Not included: flights, domestic flights on the southern routes, the on-board charges, nitrox, soft drinks and alcohol, rental gear, S100 tanks, scooters and the US$30 Hanifaru snorkel fee.

For 7 nights: Maldives taxes US$195, Green Tax US$84 and a service fee of US$160, plus a fuel supplement of US$20 a night (US$140) on every cruise from 1 August 2026. That is US$579 per person. Nitrox, drinks and any scooter dives go on the same bill.

The six lower deck Deluxe cabins, 102 to 107, have a double and a single bed and are the value choice. Cabin 101 is the larger Master cabin with a double bed. Cabin 111 on the upper deck is the only twin, with two single beds and two sea-view windows. The two Junior Suites, 110 and 112, add sea views and a single bed for a third person, and the two Master Suites, 108 and 109, on the main deck are the largest rooms with a double bed and sea views.

Any certified diver can join a Central Atolls or Hanifaru week, though Advanced Open Water and some drift experience make the channel dives far more enjoyable. The Southern Hemisphere and 7 Atolls routes require Advanced Open Water or equivalent, at least 100 logged dives and a nitrox certification, because the currents in Gaafu, Addu and Fuvahmulah are strong.

Every Central Atolls and Hanifaru trip starts and ends at Malé airport on a Saturday. A Blue Force team member meets you at arrivals and the dhoni takes you to the yacht. You leave the boat at 07:00 on the last Saturday. Southern trips start or end in Kooddoo or Gan, with a domestic flight to or from Malé that we book with the cruise.

Yes. Blue Force designs its trips for divers and non-divers, with snorkelling, kayaks, paddle boards and beach barbecues when the weather allows. Blue Force does not publish a non-diver rate, so tell us who is travelling and we will get the figure for your dates. The whole boat can also be chartered for up to 24 guests.
