Compare liveaboard dive trips by destination, dive level and marine life.

DiveScanner reads the real, current price for each boat directly from every provider that sells it - the operator's own booking system and the travel agencies (PADI Travel, Bluewater Dive Travel, Master Liveaboards and liveaboard.com). For the month you pick, it shows each provider's own price side by side, cheapest first, so you don't have to open and check every site yourself.

Yes. Every price is a live read from that provider for your selected month - no estimates, no currency conversion, no rounding. Prices refresh automatically on a schedule. If a provider has no real price for a month, we simply don't show that row - no "check availability" filler.

They find boats that actually have a real departure in that destination and month. If no provider has a real departure for a boat that month, the boat isn't shown at all - like a seasonal boat out of season.

Pick the animals you hope to see - sharks, hammerheads, tiger sharks, whale sharks, manta rays, dolphins or lionfish - and the Cruise Director shows each boat's realistic probability for that species at that destination and time of year, ranked best-place-first, from a seasonal knowledge base. Wildlife is optional; trips still show without it.

Choose your certification and number of logged dives and DiveScanner only shows boats and routes suitable for your experience - so you're not offered a route beyond your level.

Wrecks are a separate filter for wreck-diving itineraries (currently the Red Sea, Egypt). It matches a boat to the actual wreck itinerary sailing that month, applies the certification level that specific wreck route requires - an easy North & Wrecks route suits Open Water, while Get Wrecked or Rosalie Moller need Deep and 50+ dives - and reminds you that diving inside a wreck (penetration) needs the Wreck Diver specialty.

No - DiveScanner is a comparison engine, not a booking agent. When you find the trip, you click through to the operator or travel partner to complete the booking. Final price, cabin availability, payment and booking terms are handled by them. See how we compare for the full method.
