Description
Boat
Carpe Diem is a beautifully maintained 35 m (115 ft) motor safari yacht built with classic wooden construction and modern upgrades, refitted recently to enhance performance and guest comfort. The vessel measures 35 m in length with a 10 m beam and houses all the essential facilities for a premium liveaboard safari.
Carpe Diem This yacht features multiple inviting social areas, including a spacious air-conditioned lounge and dining salon, indoor and outdoor seating areas, and a generous sun deck with loungers — perfect for relaxing between dives or enjoying panoramic ocean views.
Meals are served buffet-style with a blend of international and local Maldivian cuisine, fresh fruit, snacks, coffee and tea throughout the day. Guests can request special dietary needs in advance so the onboard chef can prepare accordingly. Alcoholic beverages, beach BBQs and other drink options are available at an extra cost.
Carpe Diem further stand out is the service provided by a dedicated crew, some of which have been with the company for a many years. Clients that have come back described it as “coming home”.
Diving operations are supported by a dedicated dive dhoni and a small tender, ensuring smooth transfers to dive sites and plenty of space on the dive deck for gearing up and camera prep. Dive facilities include freshwater showers, equipment rinse stations, and a well-organised dive area.
