I have been reading about different liveaboards and what kind of experience they would offer in terms of the dives themselves. From what I understand, most liveaboards could easily be classified among these two, extremely broad categories.
1. There are thrill and adrenaline driven liveaboards like Galapagos and Cocos where the dives would be a little more challanging and the thrill of marine life would make them adrenaline driven dive trips.
2. Then there are ultra meditative- calm driven liveaboards that offer more of an inner peace / semi-spiritual experience with flat calm seas, breath taking underwater topography and abandoned wrecks etc.
I thought for discussion purposes I should start a thread that could shed some light on how some of the worlds most advertised liveaboards could be classified according to the above general categories. If someone was looking for the first category of liveaboard experience (i.e Sheer heart pumping Thrill) which liveaboards should they consider? and if they were looking for a meditative / spiritual experience which ones should they look towards ?
Your experiences / inputs would be grately appreciated ...
