There is also a 470 square foot "Master and Commander Suite " at the stern of the main deck that features a king size bed, separate sitting area with a sofa, and table with chairs that reminds guests of the "captains quarters" from the schooner design that inspired her.

S/Y SIREN RAJA AMPAT

 

The 40 metre S/Y Indo Siren is now the newest member of our fleet, launched in April 2011. She has the same specifications as her sister, the S/Y Philippine Siren. The cabins offer flexibility and can be used as twin or double bedded rooms. The dining area is very spacious offering a great setting for all your meals. The dive deck is perhaps the most spacious and comfortable you would have experienced. Designated areas for charging and preparation of your camera and video equipment, the S/Y Indo Siren truly sets out to be the pros choice for underwater photography and videography. Liveaboard diving in Indonesia can be one of the most rewarding experiences. With over 17,000 islands Indonesia is the World's second largest archipelago state and with over 80,000km of coastline, the country offers divers the opportunity to delight in a fantastic array of marine life. Indonesia is home to 15% of the World's coral reefs and has over 4000 recorded different fish & invertebrate species - with many more yet to be identified. Diving in Indonesia is so varied and there is plenty to appeal to even the most seasoned diver, from muck diving in the Lembeh strait to the fast paced currents around Komodo and Alor, dive with wobbegong sharks and manta rays in Raja Ampat or discover new sites in off shore islands of the Banda Sea.
