Onboard Fascination
Felicity offers seven spacious double cabins featuring rich, solid wood interiors and all the comforts of a resort. At the bow, you'll find a generous solarium with sun beds and loungers. Midship, a shaded open-air dining room promises al fresco meals with a panoramic view. Three delicious chef-prepared meals are served each day, with custom menus selected by each charter group. Complimentary coffee, tea, snacks, and fresh exotic fruit are available to help guests keep their energy levels up, and alcohol is served once each day's adventures are done. In between dives, stretch out in the shade with comfortable cushioned seating at the stern or take a turn at the wheel - the Felicity’s captain is happy to give a free lesson or two!
Diving and activities
Guests will find Felicity perfectly equipped for their chosen adventure, complete with everything needed to enjoy a week-long safari at sea. Diving and snorkelling are conducted from the aft platform or a comfortable custom dhoni, depending on the day's sites. Rental equipment of all kinds can be arranged, and guests are free to choose how much or little hands-on guiding they prefer in the water as a part of their charter agreement. Each of this vessel's custom itineraries includes exploration both above and below the waves, combining visits to legendary diving and snorkelling sites with laid back pursuits like beach combing and island hopping. Non-divers can take advantage of paddleboards and kayaks, perfect for self-guided exploration in the Maldives’ calm waters.
