The main deck features an air-conditioned lounge and dive briefing area, a dive equipment room, a communal toilet, and an outdoor seating area. On the upper deck, guests can gather in the open-air restaurant and bar, while the sun deck provides additional seating and loungers for enjoying the surrounding views.
Breakfast, lunch, dinner, and snacks are served onboard, accompanied by unlimited drinking water, coffee, and tea. Soft drinks and alcoholic beverages are available at an additional cost.

The accommodation includes six Standard Cabins on the lower deck, two Double Cabins on the main deck, one Deluxe Cabin, and one Suite on the upper deck. Bedding configurations vary by category, with queen beds, double beds, bunk-style layouts, and a king bed in the Suite that can be converted into twin beds.
All cabins feature individually controlled air conditioning, private bathrooms, safety deposit boxes, life jackets, hairdryers, and TV screens connected to a central media system. The vessel operates on 220V electricity with multinational power outlets, and Wi-Fi is available onboard.
