Traditional design meets modern comfort and functionality in this one-of-a-kind diving experience in the Philippines. This 40-meter dive yacht can welcome up to 16 guests across eight thoughtfully designed cabins. Boasting a mix of fixed double and twin beds, and two convertible cabins that can be either twin or double, the vessel meets varied needs. The cabins come with en-suite bathroom facilities, individual air conditioning, and spacious storage. This makes each cabin a comfortable place to retreat to after each dive from the Philippines' dive sites.
Social areas aboard this diving vessel are constructed to make one feel quite warm and welcome. The lounge, being air-conditioned, houses a cocktail bar combined with comfortable seating in addition to a flat-screen TV; thus, it is an ideal spot for relaxation among fellow divers. Meals are taken in an open-air, shaded dining area, with fresh, just-prepared dishes taken with guests together, in open views of the surrounding Philippine islands. Furthermore, it is enhanced with attentive service and a variety of meals to try, created to appeal to the various tastes, which simply means that every meal is not just a nutritious occasion but also an opportunity for connection among the guests through shared diving stories.
The dive deck will be designed to meet several diver needs and will feature expansive areas to assemble dive gear, individual storage compartments with hangers, and separate washing basins for diving and camera gear. Freshwater showers on deck add comfort after a dive, while camera corners with charging stations mean underwater photographers have problems preparing for a specific dive.
