Just like its sister ships of the Siren fleet, the Palau Siren was built according to traditional Phinisi schooner designs and is made from noble woods like teak and iron wood. The ship has a length of 40 meters and has been cruising in Palau since 2012. Just like all the other ships in the fleet, the Palau Siren, too, is available at an excellent value-for-money-ratio.
A maximum of 16 divers find accommodation in eight double cabins with lovingly decorated wooden details and portholes. Cabins 1 and 2 have a queen-sized bed, are located towards the bow and are a little smaller than the others. The cabins 3 to 8 are quite spacious and have either twin or queen-sized beds. Guests have individual bathrooms with hair dryers and enjoy an entertainment system with 19-inch flatscreen monitor in every cabin. Those who limited their luggage to a frugal amount of clothing will enjoy the inexpensive laundry service aboard.
The air-conditioned lounge provides every passenger with drawers for personal belongings. Videographers and photographers are fond of two camera tables and charging stations. Two seating areas allow you to read a book or watch TV.
All meals (two breakfasts including a snack before the first dive and a buffet-style breakfast after the first dive) are served in buffet-style at the rear of the ship in the shaded outdoor lounge area. Dishes range from Asian to European to local style. Between dives, a small snack is offered.
Genießer greifen gerne auf das an Bord angebotene Massageangebot zurück. Der günstige Wäscheservice für die Gäste rundet das feine Ambiente der S.Y. Palau Siren ab.
Das Oberdeck mit Liegestühlen lädt zum Sonnenbaden ein. Auf dem geräumigen Vordeck finden alle Tauchausrüstungen ausreichend Platz. Mit einem großen Tauchskiff fahren alle Gäste gemeinsam zu einem Tauchplatz – die Anfahrt dauert durchschnittlich 5 bis maximal 30 Minuten.
Two dinghies transport divers to their dive sites. Dinghies are accessed via a small platform – the crew will assist you in entering the dinghies and helps you transport your equipment. After every dive, the crew will rinse your wetsuit and lay it out ready for your next dive. If you want to relax, enjoy the spacious sun deck – if there is only little wind and upon request the crew will put up the awning for you to shade the area. A massage service is provided as well (extra fee).
