After the first dive we’ll serve a full breakfast, and in between eating and diving there will be spare time to relax on the sundeck, read a book, have a chat or check out the mornings digital photos on your laptop.
Lunch is served after the second dive and usually, a quick afternoon siesta.

Dinner is prepared after the night dive, and the food is excellent.

Why choose Mariana: Nitrox, only 16 guests and recently refurbished
The traditional-style safariboat Mariana is 30 meters long and has 9 cabins, each with its own bathroom and individually controlled air conditioning.

Additionally, an outdoor bar on the upper deck and a shaded area on the sundeck were added.

What is the ideal check in time ? - 12pm What is the earliest check in time ? - 9am, the earliest transfer to the boats is around 12pm noon What is the latest check in time ? - 4pm is the last scheduled transfer but for an extra charge later transfers can be arranged outside of these times at approximately $15 per person Where are you met on the day of boarding ? - You will be met by an Eco Pro Divers staff member in front of the arrival exit, after baggage claim, at the international airport, easily recognizable by a sign reading "Eco Pro Divers" and boat name. Is there a check out dive on the boarding day or it is the following morning ? - On the day of arrival and departure there is no diving What time does diving end on the day before check out ? - On the day before departure there will be one dive in the morning enabling you to fly the next day. What time is check out on the last day ? - 7-8am
If you would like to arrive the day before it is possible to stay in the airport hotel which is on the adjacent island (HulhulMale) as the airport (Hulhule island) or stay in another guesthouse on Hulhulemale Island for the night, we don’t recommend booking somewhere in Male as this involves a ferry ride to the next island.
If you stay on Hulhulemale island your hotel will then deliver you back to the airport the following day (the day of departure) where you will be met by the boats representatives and taken directly to the ship.
Please check with your hotel / guest house if this is a free transfer as some of them charge for this service. Planes do not fly late into the night so you will be able to sleep.
