Description

M/Y Duke of York is a 36-meter luxury liveaboard offering an exceptional diving and cruising experience in the Maldives.

Designed for comfort, elegance, and space, the yacht provides the perfect setting for exploring the country’s turquoise lagoons, coral atolls, and rich marine life.

Accommodating up to 26 guests, Duke of York features 11 beautifully appointed cabins spread across four decks, available in double, twin, or triple configurations. Each cabin includes individually controlled air conditioning and a private en-suite bathroom. The interiors are bright and refined, with natural wood finishes and large windows that invite in the light and ocean views.

Guests can relax in the spacious air-conditioned lounge equipped with a large-screen TV and entertainment system, unwind on one of the open sun decks, or enjoy a drink at the bar while taking in panoramic sea views. A shaded al fresco dining area complements the elegant indoor restaurant, where the onboard chef serves a blend of international and Maldivian cuisine prepared with fresh ingredients.

Diving is conducted from a fully equipped dhoni that ensures easy access to dive sites while keeping the main vessel quiet and uncluttered. Nitrox is available, and the dive team caters to all experience levels, from recreational divers to those using rebreathers.

Itineraries include some of the Maldives’ most iconic regions, such as Ari, Rasdhoo, Baa, North and South Malé, and Laamu Atolls, known for manta rays, whale sharks, and vibrant coral reefs.

Combining refined service, modern facilities, and the relaxed charm of Maldivian hospitality, M/Y Duke of York offers an unforgettable liveaboard experience for divers and travelers seeking luxury at sea.
