Oriental Siren

The 34 meter S/Y Oriental Siren is built from the finest Asian teak and ironwood. She is a traditional twin mast junk, rigged with traditional style sails that are both functional and beautiful. Thus she has been custom-made with all the luxury facilities for the modern diver. She was built in Thailand in 2008 and shall continue to sail the waters of the Andaman Sea.

She welcomes up to 14 guests aboard each trip. This ensures abundant space for all guests. However, she has the facilities and ample room to host up to 16 guests on special charters.

There is a spacious air-conditioned saloon with cocktail bar, 32 inch flatscreen and computer server supporting the inter-cabin network. Enjoy an expansive leisure deck area and a covered outdoor dining area to relax in between dives.

Worldwide Dive and Sail considers safety the preeminent issue aboard their yachts. The S/Y Oriental Siren has been designed and constructed based upon Lloyds Standards, the leading international body of maritime safety standards. The yacht is also equipped with the latest safety features including Life Rafts, Life Jackets, Fire Extinguishers, Smoke Alarms, Emergency Long Distance Radios, and Satellite Phones.

Oriental Siren has 7 large air-conditioned cabins each with their own personal computer, audio-visual entertainment system and ensuite bathrooms with hot water.

There is 1 master cabin at the bow. The remaining six cabins are twin or double.

Timor-Leste, once governed by Indonesia, has a tumultuous history with a strong influence from the Portuguese, which is one of this small nation's official languages. The young nation is made up of the eastern half of Timor island, Atauro Island to the north and the tiny island of Jako, yet despite being an island nation does not have a strong fishing background. On land the hot humid climate brings lush vegetation and the opportunity to tour the jungles and mountains.

Oriental Siren sails from Dili to Atauro Island, then on to Jako island and along the northern coast before returning to Dili. The wondrous dugong (sea cow) can be sighted along the northern coast, the steep walls of Atauro Island bring sharks and rays, Jako Island is a rush of currents, and the sheltered bays provide havens for many tiny species from seahorses and octopus to frogfish and rhinopias.

S/Y Oriental Siren is accompanied by 2 high-powered Zodiacs, and Enriched Air Nitrox is available for a minimal charge for all certified Nirox divers. If you are not a certified Nitrox diver, instructors can certainly teach you the Enriched Air Specialty onboard.

Each cabin is fitted with an individual computer and multiple power sources to facilitate the needs of digital photography. The computer features high-end specifications and 20” high-definition flatscreens, which is integrated with the yachts network server in the saloon.

Camera workstations are dedicated to the preparation and maintenance of cameras including prep and storage areas. On the dive deck large rinsing tanks with fresh water are changed on a regular basis.
