Routes: A large Maldivian-built vessel on the classic central route, with seasonal itineraries north toward Baa Atoll during the manta months and occasional far-south expeditions.

Season: Operates year-round; southwest monsoon months (roughly May-November) favor manta activity on the western atoll rims.

Character: Comfort-oriented atoll cruising with strong big-animal chances

Prices: Usually $2,500-3,800 per week before taxes. Maldivian fleets adjust routes to the monsoon every year, and boats within a fleet swap itineraries — reconfirm details with the operator.

Departures: Turns around at Malé, alongside its diving dhoni.
