M/V Orion

The way to travel around the Maldives archipelago in style is by cruise ship or on a safari in a chartered vessel. Safari cruising, whether for diving, snorkeling, adventure sailing, surfing, or leisurely island hopping, is growing in popularity. It is a good way to visit several islands, or un spoiled dive locations, far from resorts. This gives you a wonderful opportunity to see inhabited islands unaffected by tourism and discover idyllic, uninhabited islands that will draw your breath away.

A typical holiday vacation in the Maldives is for a week or ten days. Any less than that and one misses out on the fun and action. Most will be staying at one resort but why limit yourself when you can hop on a luxury cruiser and explore many different islands. Top up a tan, swim in warm waters and explore the underworld of island life as we take you on a journey beyond your wildest dreams. On board MV Orion, we bring paradise to your doorstep.

On a typical trip, the Orion anchors at night and cruises only for a few hours in the wee mornings, but this is enough to discover real cast-away desert islands, unblemished inhabited islands and remarkable dive spots. Expect at least one day of leisure fun on a deserted island playing beach volleyball, beach soccer or sea-kayaking or visit an interesting inhabited spot where some cultural entertainment night prepared by island dwellers will leave you giggling with amusement. Halfway through the cruise expect a barbeque on a desert island; other evenings include a Maldivian dinner and bodu beru dancing display by the crew, and dinner dance with a live band. Spend another evening night fishing, sitting in a dhoni with baited line dangling over the side, waiting for a bite… and the list goes on.

Passengers are usually a good international mix of young and old, divers and non-divers, and a house-party atmosphere swiftly develops. This is helped by the lack of formality in dress code that preaches nothing more than shorts by day and casual outfits at night. And the heart of camaraderie on Orion – an air-conditioned bar offering cocktails, tea and coffee, soft drinks, spirits and a good collection of wine and champagne.

Meals on board Orion are buffets with breakfast cooked to order, lunch and dinner with soup, salad, fruits, a choice of main courses and dessert. Fresh catch of seafood options will make you beg and crave for more and fresh vegetables flown in weekly from Sri Lanka will tickle your appetite. Catered special dishes can also be arranged on request.

If you seek more than basic comfort, guaranteed good food and companions, cruising around the islands of the Maldives is the perfect idea for a holiday
