About DUNE Theia

The DUNE Theia is an elegant 32-meter motor yacht designed for diving cruises across the Maldives, from the central atolls down to the remote south. Built in 2009 and renovated in 2023, she accommodates up to 20 guests in 10 cabins across three decks, including premium sea-view cabins on the upper deck. The spacious sun deck with sky bar, panoramic indoor saloon with bean bags, and outdoor dining area overlooking the ocean create a relaxed atmosphere. A dedicated dive dhoni accompanies the vessel for comfortable diving operations, with free nitrox included on all trips.
