A Week Aboard Emperor Serenity: Diving the Central Atolls of the Maldives

A week on Emperor Serenity in February 2026, running the Best of Maldives route through the Central Atolls. The boat felt new after the 2024 renovation, and the crew made the week easy. A few things I hoped for never showed up.

Two Weeks on Discovery I in the Red Sea

Two weeks on Discovery I, running Brothers, Daedalus, and Elphinstone. Good diving and a crew that worked hard. The cabin stayed hot, the linen was rough, and it was the wrong season for the pelagics a lot of people came for.
