Eight air-conditioned cabins with en-suite bathrooms, a full range of photographic facilities and a huge sundeck all combine to mean a comfortable and high quality Indonesia liveaboard.
Under European ownership, the dive schedule covers many relatively unexplored areas such as Ambon in the Maluku's Banda Archipelago, Halmahera, Alor and Raja Ampat. And with a boarding requirement for each cruise of at least 50 dives per diver, you can be sure there are no absolute beginners on your safari. Ondina also has nitrox available for use for those with suitable qualifications.
For underwater photo enthusiasts, you'll find Ondina well equipped with E6 film processing facilities and a slide projector to show your dive buddies your good work. Several of the departures have guest Pro' photographers, such as Deb Fuggitt, so please enquire if you have a special interest in these trips. The boat kit up area also has a secure camera table and padded freshwater tank to rinse your camera equipment.
