Liveaboards
Do I have enough experience for a Liveaboard?
A minimum number of dives are required for most of the Liveaboards.
Can I book liveaboard alone?
Definitely! Liveaboard provides a great opportunity to meet new friends with the same diving interest. Customers will be assigned to a diving partner (which can be the dive guide if you are lucky) upon arrival.
Solo travelers will usually be charged a supplement fee or paired up with a roommate by Liveaboard. Travelers of different gender will not be paired together without being informed by the Liveaboards. Preference of paying the supplement fees or being paired with travelers of the same gender can be indicated during the booking process and possible solutions can be arranged between the travelers and Liveaboard.
What should I bring?
The standard recommendation is to pack light. But if you are in the mood to experience how it is like being a Marine Admiral in the anime One Piece, feel free to dress like one.
