A unique way to experience the Maldives, Four Seasons Explorer allows avid divers, water enthusiasts, nature lovers and 21st-century explorers to discover remote shores and rarely visited dive/snorkeling sites among the untouched reaches of the exotic atolls.

This 11-cabin, three-deck catamaran takes you island-hopping in inimitable Four Seasons style. Limited to 22 passengers, this private cruise experience goes far beyond the normal beach escape. With ample on-board activities and a choice of three-, four- or seven-night cruises, Four Seasons Explorer offers an unforgettable vacation for divers and non-divers alike. Children over the age of 10 years are welcome.

The 39-meter (128-foot) catamaran features spacious State Rooms and a beautifully appointed Explorer Suite, two sun decks with a jetted tub on the second deck, a restaurant with indoor and outdoor dining, a bar, lounge and library.
