Built in the Maldives and designed by divers for divers, DUNE Black Manta is a modern 42-meter liveaboard offering comfortable cruising and exciting diving adventures throughout the Maldives.
Combining contemporary style, spacious layouts, and dedicated dive operations, the vessel provides a relaxed and premium atmosphere for exploring the Indian Ocean year-round.
Accommodating up to 26 divers across 15 air-conditioned cabins with private ensuite bathrooms, the yacht features a mix of standard, superior, deluxe, and panoramic sea-view cabins spread across the lower, main, and upper decks. Spacious indoor and outdoor social areas, a large sundeck, outdoor dining spaces, lounge areas, and an onboard massage area create an inviting environment between dives.
Diving operations are supported by a dedicated 20-meter dhoni equipped with compressors and nitrox facilities, as well as an additional speedboat that allows the crew to organize smaller dive groups when needed. This setup helps provide a smoother and more personalized diving experience across the Maldives’ channels, reefs, manta cleaning stations, and shark-rich dive sites.
The experienced crew focuses on service, comfort, and safety throughout the trip, while DUNE’s environmental initiatives emphasize marine conservation, responsible diving practices, reduced plastic usage, and partnerships with organizations such as Green Fins and Manta Trust.
