The flagship of the BlueForce Fleet
BlueForce One, this is now the luxury class, larger, more luxurious but with the same top service as its sister ship, the smaller BlueForce 3.
The BlueForce One has 10 modern cabins, as well as a junior suite and a master suite. All cabins have individually controlled air conditioning, a spacious private bathroom, hairdryer, television and a safe. With 20 guests on board, there is enough space to retreat from time to time. In the public areas there is a huge living room, a 65" television and two outdoor jacuzzis. For the really sporty, there are also kayaks, stand-up paddleboards and surfboards to rent, and sun worshippers have 3 different decks to sunbathe on.
First class diving at its best, the luxurious BlueForce One leaves nothing to be desired. It travels the classic route, central atolls as well as deep into the south to Addu Atoll. It is accompanied by an 18m dhoni, which has plenty of space for divers, several sinks, fresh water showers, an equipment station and a powerful nitrox membrane compressor. Diving in the Maldives means sightings of whale sharks, manta rays, barracudas, Napoleon wrasse and much more. 18 day and 2 night dives are planned.
Gran Central Tour
This is the most famous route in the Maldives, but at the same time the one that offers the best and most varied dives, including 18 day dives and 2 night dives, it passes through the atolls of North Male, South Male, Felidhoo and Ari.
The aim is to find pelagic sharks, grey sharks, whitetip sharks, blacktip sharks and occasionally hammerhead sharks and dolphins, eagle rays, schools of colorful fish, moray eels, tuna, golden head bream, groupers and turtles. Drift dives in water passages and channels, thilas (submerged coral "seamounts"), cleaning stations where large manta rays gather to be cleaned and the search for the whale shark (and if we are lucky, snorkeling and even diving with the largest fish). We will dive into a wreck full of life. Also, there are two of the most spectacular night dives in the world: one with manta rays and the other with dozens of nurse sharks.
Deserted islands and typical fishing villages are also visited to discover and enjoy a bit more of the land and, weather permitting, we will have a barbecue lunch on the island. All this makes this cruise an excellent and unforgettable diving trip.
