We use a dedicated support boat, the dhoni, for every trip. This means your gear stays on the support boat, leaving the main yacht or guesthouse uncluttered. We handle all tank fills and equipment transport, so your only job is to suit up and step off the boat. Whether you choose a luxury liveaboard yacht or a land-based boutique guesthouse, our Maldivian expeditions are built around a simple rhythm: Eat, Sleep, Dive, Repeat. We know that logistics are what make or break a dive trip, so we manage everything from your landing in Malé to the final night dive. On our liveaboard charters, your home is the vessel itself. You wake up at the dive site, which grants us access to remote atolls and reefs that land-based day-boats cannot reach. Our daily routine involves three day-dives and one night-dive. Using the dhoni as a floating gear station keeps your cabin free of equipment clutter and ensures your tanks are filled and ready while you relax. Our land-based trips in Gaafaru offer a different pace. You stay at a local boutique inn, which provides an immersive look at island life while putting you right in the heart of the shipwreck graveyard. We include round-trip speedboat transfers from the airport, full-board meals, and PADI-led dive teams. We maintain small group sizes to ensure a 1:5 guide-to-diver ratio, which is critical for safety in channel dives with strong currents. When you travel with us, you get the benefit of our seventeen years of experience navigating local currents, tides, and seasonal marine conditions. We don't just book your travel; we lead the dive adventure. ## About Planet Scuba We have been diving the Maldives for seventeen years, building a community that feels less like a tour group and more like a dive family. Our expeditions are born from our own obsession with the ocean, which is why we handle every detail from the Malé airport pickup to the final tank fill.
