STINGRAY – Maldives liveaboards - is a solid wooden construction and combines Maldivian boat-building traditions with modern engineering. Sting Ray is a 31 meter boat with 9 comfortable cabins (4 with double and 5 with twin beds) equipped with air conditioning and en-suite hot-water showers.
All cabins are located on the first deck and each cabin is with outside portholes.
The saloon, bar and kitchen are located on the main deck. From the saloon a stairway leads to the rooms on the first deck. A stairway to the water is provided at the stern for your occasional swim or getting back to the boat from the water.
A large shaded open space is provided at the third deck and is commonly used for relaxing by the guests.
Sting Ray will take you to the country's most popular dive sites where you can witness everything the Maldives have to offer: Mantas and other rays, sharks, schools of trevallies, Napoleans, turtles, Blennies, Gobis, lobsters, multi-hued underwater landscapes and a host of marine creatures. If you are lucky enough you may get to swim along pilot whales or whale sharks which is an experience beyond compare.
