Liveaboard management software for dive vessels
Run the whole boat from one system — cabin and berth availability, fixed-departure itineraries, onboard point of sale, guest forms and invoicing, with direct, channel and agency bookings landing in a single manifest.
Gurita is liveaboard management software built for dive vessels and small-ship operators. Instead of juggling a cabin spreadsheet, a separate invoicing tool and a WhatsApp thread with your agents, you run every trip on one live manifest: berths, guests, payments, dive operations and onboard sales all in the same place.
It works whether you sell direct, through travel agents, or across the OTAs. Availability updates everywhere at once, so a berth booked by an agent can never be double-sold on your own website — and every charge a guest makes onboard posts straight to their trip folio.
Everything a liveaboard operator needs to run a season

Frequently asked questions
What is liveaboard management software?
Liveaboard management software runs the operational and commercial side of a dive vessel: cabin and berth availability, trip itineraries and manifests, guest and diver records, onboard point of sale, invoicing and payments, and bookings from direct, agency and OTA channels — all from one system instead of separate spreadsheets and tools.
Can Gurita handle both direct bookings and travel agents?
Yes. Gurita takes commission-free direct bookings through widgets on your own website, syncs availability with 160+ OTAs through its channel manager, and gives travel agents their own accounts with contracted rates, credit limits and automatic commission tracking — all against the same live availability.
Does it work for a single boat or a fleet?
Both. You can run one vessel or a fleet of boats, and combine them with dive centers and resorts in the same account, with reporting across the whole portfolio.
Can guests fill in forms and pay before the trip?
Yes. Guests complete passenger, certification and medical forms online and can pay deposits or balances in advance, so boarding and check-in are ready before they arrive.
Do onboard bar and shop sales post to the guest bill?
Yes. The onboard point of sale posts every bar, shop, nitrox and rental charge straight to the guest’s trip folio, so the final invoice is complete and accurate.
