Dive Adventures Onboard the Oceana Maria

From pygmy seahorses to whale sharks, through calm seas and typhoon weather – the OMs, as she is fondly referred to – has taken us from island to island in search of that perfect dive get-away….

And yes, many dive paradises have we discovered with the OMs!

It is obvious from the first moment you set foot on board that the boat is set up specifically for diving.  The dive deck is the heart of the boat.  Here, each diver has his own dive station – with a crate to hold all his gear and a tank rack where his tank sits all set up – ready to dive at a moment’s notice!

I’ve gone on dive trips (as a guest and also as a divemaster) on many, many live-aboards and I must say that the OMs has the most comfortable dive deck I have had the pleasure of diving from.  I feel so spoiled on every trip and on every dive!

The entire experience of the comfortable boat plus the excellent crew, the knowledgeable dive staff, the great food and the ease of diving all add up to making each trip onboard the Oceana Maria the best dive adventure you could ask for.  And that’s even before you do your first giant stride into the water!
