Black Manta is a 42-metre liveaboard built in the Maldives and operated by French dive-cruise company DUNE, carrying up to 28 passengers with a crew of 20 across 16 air-conditioned double cabins, all with private bathrooms and several with sea views. Guests dive and cruise the Maldivian atolls with an air-conditioned indoor lounge, a cocktail bar, a dedicated photo-equipment station, and outdoor dining set right on the ocean. The sun deck is built as a wellness and relaxation space with loungers, a massage area and a jacuzzi. The itinerary mixes reef diving, night dives, snorkelling and stops at isolated islands, with a kitchen serving a blend of local and international dishes adaptable to dietary needs.
