Emperor Serenity Liveaboard - Best of Maldives Scuba Diving Trip - Feb 2017

A week of scuba diving on the amazing Emperor Serenity Liveaboard with great fellow divers and crew… The trip was called ‘The best of the Maldives’ and as always the truly amazing Indian Ocean didn’t disappoint… Here’s the best of twenty (or so) scuba dives squeezed into nine minutes, including some aerial footage using a DJI Mavic Pro Drone. The boat departed from Male in the Maldives, and we dived in North Male Atoll, North Ari Atoll, South Ari Atoll and also Vaavu Atoll.
