The Vessel
Philippine Siren liveaboard was built on the Indonesian island of Sulawesi. Handcrafted from ironwood and teak (traditional to the area), you will find no other dive liveaboard as beautiful in Philippine waters.
Each cabin is air-conditioned and offers its own personal computer, audio-visual entertainment system and en suite bathrooms with hot water. For added luxury, bathrobes, hair dryers and towels are provided. The vessel also benefits from 2 high-powered tenders, kayaks, laundry and massage services.
The spacious, air-conditioned saloon benefits from a cocktail bar, 50-inch flat screen TV and computer server which supports the inter-cabin network. Dining is outdoors under a covered area with uninterrupted views of the Pacific Ocean. An expansive dive and leisure deck provides ample space for kitting up even when the vessel is full, and underwater photographers and videographers will definitely appreciate the designated areas for charging and preparation of equipment.

The Marine Life
The reefs of Tubbataha consist of vertical walls or near drop off's rising out of great depths where hammerheads, thresher sharks and whale sharks can be seen. The shallow reef tops are teeming with colourful reef fish whilst at many dive sites stingrays, spiny lobsters, immature manta rays and turtles are found.
This delicate reef system supports over 600 different fish species and over 300 coral species, whilst providing a haven for nesting hawksbill and green turtles and numerous birds.
Requirements: PADI Advanced Open Water or equivalent is strongly recommended and you will need to be comfortable with strong currents
