Boat Specifications

Ombak Biru - Boat Specifications:

The Ombak Biru was constructed in 2001. She is built and rigged as a traditional Buginese schooner but with all modern conveniences to make sure you are safe and comfortable during your dive liveaboard cruise.

There are many factors that go into the sum of making a successful dive liveabord vessel so we have split this section of the site into several different areas. For more detailed information about the Ombak Biru please follow the links below:

Thirty metres long and nine metres wide the Ombak Biru consists of three decks. The lower deck is where the majority of the cabins are located, in the forward part of the ship. Unlike typical ship accommodation, your cabin provides ample space to store your stuff and still move about with ease. All cabins are air-conditioned and have private bathrooms. Obviously, we provide all hotel amenities you may require.

The main deck is where the dive activities are conducted as well as the lounge, tender deck and galley.

The upper deck houses the wheel house and our two sundecks and the owner's cabin.
