SY Indo Siren

S/Y Indo Siren is more than just a Phinisi diving yacht, and it’s more than a luxury boat, too. Everything from its conception to its onboard facilities is perfect for discerning guests who want to enjoy liveaboard diving trips in Indonesia. Purpose-built and new in 2011, the boat was designed by divers, for divers. It has size and modern technology to ensure that the cruises are safe and comfortable in all sea conditions, but it still has lots of classic charm, made from Ironwood and furnished in teak. Divers can enjoy the special feeling that only classic styling can give, but still have creature comforts, and modern luxuries when on board.
Up to 16 lucky guests enjoy cruises of one week to up to a fortnight. The twin and double cabins are independently air conditioned, have en suite bathrooms with hot & cold fresh-water showers and audio/video entertainment. The large cabins have space and storage areas for the guests to truly feel at home throughout the cruise, along with fresh towels, bathrobes, a hairdryer and security box.

The communal areas include an air-conditioned lounge, huge covered outdoor dining area, a large and well-designed dive deck that has warm-water showers. Underwater photography is becoming more and more popular, and often more than half of the guests bring cameras and more. Indo Siren has designated outdoor and indoor camera workstations, with charging facilities, personal rinse tanks, and more. In the lounge there are large sofas and armchairs, a large flat-screen television with an extensive movie library and even a cocktail bar. There are complimentary kayaks for guests, and massage & laundry services. The two motorized dinghies are used for diving, and to transfer guests for land and beach excursions.
For divers on S/Y Indo Siren, the competitive rates include free use of diving equipment and free Nitrox. Those who don’t have Nitrox certification can easily take the course on board with one of the professional instructors on every cruise. Open Water divers can also take the Advanced Course.

It total, there are 8 private cabins on this 40m yacht, and the (12) crew & diving staff take the best and most-professional care of the guests throughout the diving cruises.

The whole experience is enjoyable, from start to finish, and both above and below the surface. Although the yacht is very luxurious and easy to relax on, there’s plenty of other things to do during the trips, including kayaking, beach excursions and snorkeling in crystal-clear water at healthy, colourful reefs.
