WHITE PEARL

WHITE PEARL operates exclusively in the Maldives, and she is the largest charter yacht doing it. At 56 metres, with 26 guests across 13 cabins and a crew of 24, she is built to a scale that the typical Maldivian liveaboard cannot match. A dedicated dive dhoni accompanies her on every charter, carrying gear and divers to sites that the mothership observes from a comfortable distance.

Thirteen cabins: seven doubles and six twins, with a mix of queen, double, and convertible single beds. The layout handles large family groups, corporate retreats, or dive clubs without anyone sharing unwanted space. Common areas include a spa, swimming pool, two jacuzzis, two bars, a gym, a café, and an entertainment salon.

Three 7.5-metre tenders with 250-horsepower outboards handle transfers and dive runs. Two jet skis, sea scooters, four SUPs, two kayaks, wakeboard, waterskis, towable tube, an inflatable slide, a sea pool, snorkelling gear, fishing equipment, and underwater camera and video equipment. The toy list is geared toward a group that wants to stay active between dives.

Twin Cummins KTA38-M3 engines (1,015 BHP each) push her at 12 to 14 knots, fast by liveaboard standards. She operates year-round from Malé.

Charter rates include crew, meals, standard bar, fuel, cruising taxes, and permits. No hidden extras on the basics. Twenty-six guests, a dive dhoni, and the entire Maldivian archipelago as your itinerary.
