The Seven Seas has been operating for over 15 years and has amassed hundreds of trips with amazing guests and adventures on every trip we have run. Please check out some of the review below to see what they have to say.

Karen and Anthony Eclavea

For our inaugural liveaboard trip to Indonesia, we had an incredible experience with the crew of the Seven Seas. The attention to detail and flexibility of accommodations was amazing. Alex daily spent a huge amount of time coordinating tides, currents, and snorkeling locations with the ship captain to avoid the oncoming storm, while optimizing our underwater experience. The crew managed the operations of cooking, cleaning, activities, and travel in the background with a constant smile that was inviting and infectious. Cely worked endlessly around the clock and had a can do attitude. Irwan and Sadat spotted tons of sea life we would have missed without them. Thank you so much for letting us experience your culture and cuisine with a phenomenal trip.

First Raja experience exceeded all of my expectations. Alex detailed planning, anticipatory guidance avoiding bad weather to provide us the best site conditions was so appreciated. Checking sites just prior to our snorkels proved invaluable. Sense of humor, crew big smiles and attentiveness and excellent critter spotting by dive guides added to the trip immensely. Love and Aloha to all of you!

To Alex and the crew,
Thank you very much for this outstanding trip! You all did an extremely good job by guiding us to places where we had the best possible snorkel. I did have a very good and interesting snorkeling, admiring the biodiversity and the beautiful colors, all because of your loving and caring professionalism. The atmosphere was relaxing, the food very good. I wish you all the best and perhaps some day we ll meet again.

Seven Seas ha sido un sueño hecho realidad. Ha sido mi primera experiencia en un live aboard, pero ha sido la mejor experiencia de buceo de mi vida. El crew completo tiene una atención al detalle excepcional y complementan la experiencia al máximo. Gracias por recuerdos que durarán toda mi vida, espero poder volver en un futuro cercano. Happy diving!

Seven Seas leaves me almost speechless! This was my first adventure leaving my country and coming to a liveaboard. It was more than I ever dreamed it could be. The entire crew was amazing -warm, loving, funny, helpful. They truly care about the experience. Alex is a wonderful guy who clearly loves his team. Jeffry, Celi, Ardhi, Di Di, Big John, Little John and ALL the others are truly wonderful souls! I knew when I committed to a dive trip in Raja Ampat that I would be taking a trip of a lifetime. What I didn’t expect were the laughs and love I would share in 2 weeks at sea. The sky was beautiful, the ship exceeded my expectations, the dives were incredible and the hikes were stunning!
Much love to the Seven Seas family, you are truly the very B-E-S-T
Raja Ampat, December 2019.

English We joined the Meccadina 4D3N trip from Labuan Bajo to Lombok, arriving in Lombok on 3 July 2026. Our main guide was absolutely amazing. He was incredibly kind, helpful, and handled every difficult situation with professionalism and a smile. Even when the boat had some unexpected issues, he quickly came up with a new plan so that we still got to see all the important places. Thanks to him, we were lucky enough to see both whale sharks and manta rays, which we know can be difficult to find. He always showed us the best places to go, gave us great recommendations, and made sure everyone had the best possible experience. The whole crew was friendly and hardworking, but our main guide truly went above and beyond to make this trip enjoyable for everyone. The food was delicious, and they always pointed out dolphins whenever they spotted them, so we never missed the chance to see them. Thank you for making our Meccadina trip such a memorable adventure! Bahasa Indonesia Kami mengikuti perjalanan Meccadina 4H3M dari Labuan Bajo ke Lombok dan tiba di Lombok pada 3 Juli 2026. Pemandu utama kami benar-benar luar biasa. Dia sangat ramah, sangat membantu, dan mampu menangani setiap situasi sulit dengan profesional serta selalu tersenyum. Meskipun kapal mengalami beberapa kendala, dia berhasil menyusun rencana baru sehingga kami tetap bisa mengunjungi semua tempat yang penting. Berkat dia, kami berhasil melihat hiu paus dan pari manta, yang kami tahu tidak selalu mudah ditemukan. Dia selalu menunjukkan tempat terbaik, memberikan saran yang sangat berguna, dan memastikan semua tamu mendapatkan pengalaman terbaik. Seluruh kru sangat ramah dan bekerja dengan baik, tetapi pemandu utama kami benar-benar memberikan usaha lebih agar perjalanan ini menyenangkan bagi semua orang. Makanannya sangat enak, dan mereka selalu memberi tahu kami ketika ada lumba-lumba sehingga kami tidak pernah melewatkan kesempatan untuk melihatnya. Terima kasih telah membuat perjalanan Meccadina ini menjadi pengalaman yang tidak akan kami lupakan!

This was my second trip with Seven Seas Liveaboard in Raja Ampat, and it was just as incredible as the first. The diving was unreal — pristine reefs, insane marine life, and nonstop WOW moments. The guides were calm, highly skilled, and safety-focused, and the crew were warm, attentive, and made everything feel effortless. The boat is beautiful and comfortable, the food was outstanding, and the whole vibe on board was relaxed, joyful, and full of shared awe for the ocean. If you’re considering a liveaboard, Seven Seas is absolutely worth it. I’d book again without hesitation. 💙🤿🌊

An unforgettable family adventure! We were 10 people, including teenagers and a toddler, and everyone had the time of their lives. The boat is spotless and comfortable, the dive sites breathtaking, and there are plenty of activities for non-divers too. The crew is outstanding—professional, friendly, and always attentive. The food was excellent, and every detail was taken care of. (Gluten free options available!) The Seven Seas is much more than a boat, it’s a once-in-a-lifetime experience. Highly recommended!

Sinceramente las mejores vacaciones de mi vida. Fui con amigos y familia a mediados de agosto de este año, y la verdad que cuesta de explicar con palabras todo lo vivido en tan poco tiempo. Si eres un apasionado del buceo este es el sitio a ir. Las immersiones se nota que estan trabajadisimas y realmente lo que puedes llegar a ver bajo el agua parece de otro mundo. Hablo de mantas rayas gigantescas, tortugas curiosas rodeadas de arrecifes preciosos, de tiburones pequeños y familiares como los de arrecife hasta el immenso tiburon ballena. Realmente me quedaria aun que escribiera muchas paginas describiendo todo lo que vimos. Aparte que los lugares y ambiente es paradisiaco. Destaco mucho Komodo y sus alrededores donde la vida salvaje es palpable (hasta vimos dragones en libertad, es decir fuera del paraue, un dia que hicimos una excursion en la playa.) Cabe remarcar que esta experiencia abordo del Seven Seas tambien puede ser muy gozada para los que no son tan amantes del buceo, pues disponen de un monton de actividades alternativas y complementarias, desde kayak y padel surf, hasta drinks y snacks en una playa idílica con musica viendo el atardecer. Para acabar (que esto se esta alargando mucho), un fuerte abrazo a todos los trabajadores; crew members, dive masters, cocineros y el cruise director Angel, que hicieron todo lo posible para que el viaje fuera verdaderamente de ensueño, se nota que son una gran familia de la cual yo tambien me siento una pequeña parte despues de esos dias en los cuales fuimos verdaderamente felices. Fueron 9 o 10 dias muy muy dificiles de olvidar.

Wat een onvergetelijke reis hebben we beleefd op het schip The Seven Seas. Alles was tot in de puntjes verzorgd. De snorkeltrips waren fenomenaal. Bryan, onze snorkel guide, heeft ons de wonderschone onderwaterwereld laten ontdekken. Manta's, whalesharks, blacktip en white tip sharks, turtle en ontelbare andere bijzondere vissen met als hoogtepunt de 4 dugongs die we hebben gespot. Een magische ervaring. Angel, de fijne cruisemanager, had een gevarieerd programma voor ons samengesteld. Het was een once in a lifetime experience waar we enorm dankbaar voor zijn.

We had a wonderful 10-night family trip from Komodo to Sumbawa, and everything was simply perfect. The crew was attentive and kind, the food was excellent (and plentiful, with snacks always available), and the diving exceeded our expectations. We were lucky to encounter plenty of mantas and even 3 whale sharks, along with incredible dives throughout Komodo National Park. A special thanks to Cruise Director Angel, who always made sure we dived at the best times, with little or no current. Truly an unforgettable experience!

Wat een waanzinnige trip hebben wij gedaan op The Seven Seas! Fantastische crew die ons in de watten heeft gelegd. De cruise manager Angel en zijn team die de beste plekken wist om te snorkelen en te duiken in de regio, Sumbawa en Komodo. Een onvergetelijke belevenis! We hebben gezwommen met haaien en manta’s, de meest fantastische duik- en snorkel plekken bezocht en zelfs de schuwe dugong gezien 👌 De begeleiding die mee gaat het water in zorgt ervoor dat je meer ziet dan dat je je ooit kan voorstellen. Eten aan boord en de cabines zijn top of the bill. We kijken nu al weer uit naar de volgende trip, bedankt voor alles crew Seven Seas 🙏

The Seven Seas, wat een fantastische ervaring is dit. Van de duiken tot de activiteiten die geregeld worden is dit werkelijk waar zo bijzonder dat het niet te omschrijven is. Naast alle geweldige dingen die je ziet tijdens het duiken en de meest prachtige zonsondergangen en opkomsten is de bemanning ook subliem. Alles wordt voor je geregeld en je wordt serieus in de watten gelegd. Ik zou deze ervaring op de boot iedereen ten zeerste aanraden om ook zelf mee te maken. Zoals ik al eerder vermeld heb is de ervaring op dit schip niet te omschrijven maar moet je dit echt zelf mee maken.
