🇫🇷 Version française : À propos de BookDiveBoat
Our mission
The diving industry needs a new generation of divers
We share our passion for scuba diving, for nature, and for protecting the ocean.
Diving should be open and easy to get into. That is the reason BookDiveBoat exists — to put good trips within reach of divers who are just starting out, and to keep experienced divers coming back to the water.
What we provide
Three things, booked together
🤿 Dive trips
Liveaboards and dive resorts across our destinations. We negotiate the rates directly with operators.
✈️ Flights
Booked alongside your trip, matched to boarding and disembarkation times.
🛡 Insurance
Dive and travel cover arranged with your booking, so nothing is left open.
Our goal
A personal connection with every diver
We supervise from A to Z
One person follows your booking from the first message to the day you fly home.
We stay with you after
Your next certification, your next destination, your next boat.

“My first liveaboard, a one-week trip in the Maldives, and the organisation was very professional from the first contact to the last day. The cabins were much more spacious and clean than I expected. This definitely won’t be my last trip with them.”

“Things turned wrong for us on this trip due to force majeure, and the final operator didn’t want to solve it. BDB never stopped answering me and got the situation solved.”

“Customer service was very helpful in choosing the right boat for us, with good advice about the season and where we’d have more chance to see sharks. Once in the Maldives they were always in contact. Adora was a great choice for our group.”

We build partnered trips with divers who create. Same goal: make access to diving open and easy for everyone.
We make liveaboard booking easy!
Liveaboards and dive resorts in 8 destinations, booked by divers.
BookDiveBoat is an EU-based dive travel agency. We book liveaboards and dive resorts in Egypt, Mexico, the Maldives, Indonesia, the Galápagos, the Philippines, Thailand and Saudi Arabia. Browse all liveaboards, all dive resorts or the blog, or download our free destination and season guide.
In Egypt, start with the Red Sea liveaboard guide or Egypt liveaboard for beginners. We also cover solo diving, shark diving, the Brothers Islands, Daedalus Reef and private charters in South Egypt.
In Mexico, compare Cozumel vs Baja California, then read about whale sharks, Socorro, Cabo Pulmo and bull shark diving.
In the Maldives, see the atolls, channels and currents guide, South Ari Atoll, the top atolls for manta rays and Fuvahmulah. The Maldives Adora is on offer now.
Choosing in Indonesia? Raja Ampat vs Komodo compares the two main areas.
For first-timers: your first liveaboard, how to choose a liveaboard, which certification you need, what to pack, seasickness and going solo. For groups, see how to charter a boat.
Our New Wave project answers the questions new divers ask before a first trip, from how many dives you need to what happens if you get seasick.
Vous parlez français ? Notre site Croisière Plongée présente les mêmes destinations avec un conseiller en français : croisière plongée en Égypte, aux Maldives, au Mexique, ainsi que le projet New Wave.
