Dive Adventures and Liveaboard Cruises in Thailand, Burma and Indonesia

 
 



Built in the year 2000, the MV Ocean Rover has quickly become one of the most popular liveaboard diving vessels on the planet, especially among photographers. She clearly sets the standard for world class diving operations and offers a liveaboard diving experience you will never forget.

At 30 meters (100 ft.) long and 8 meters (26 ft.) wide she comfortably accommodates sixteen guests in eight spacious cabins. All cabins have en-suite bathrooms, are individually air conditioned, and designed to accommodate both singles and couples. The cabins are all located on the upper and main decks and feature either panoramic windows, or dual portholes for enjoying the stunning views of some of Southeast Asia's most prisitine diving locations. The spacious saloon offers a comfortable dining and sitting area, is fully equipped with an entertainment center, and has a dedicated camera charging station with both 220/110V outlets. The saloon interior has been kept light and airy with a relaxed atmosphere, has a refreshments corner for snacking between dives, a computer for sending and receiving e-mail, and boasts one of the most extensive marine life libraries found on any liveaboard worldwide.. For relaxing and socializing between dives there is a partially shaded sun deck which has a second refreshment corner, large picnic style table for dining, and cozy lounge chairs for catching some rays or enjoying an evening sea breeze.

Built with photographers in mind the huge dive deck has several camera tables and rinse tanks to ensure that divers have a safe place to keep their expensive cameras both before and after the dive. The gearing up area is huge, as would be appropriate for a vessel of this size, and every care has been taken to ensure that diving operations are easy and painless.

Ocean Rover's sixteen passengers are looked after by twelve of the most experienced crew members in all of Southeast Asia; they are extremely helpful, understand how valuable your equipment is, and excel at locating rare and difficult to find marine life specimens. All of her crew have been trained according to the Standards of Training, Certification and WatchKeeping for Seafarers 1978 & 1995. She is also one of the safest vessels operating anywhere in the world, is fitted with the latest communication and navigation equipment, and is IMO(International Maritime Organization), SOLAS (Safety of Life at Sea), ISM (International Safety Management), and ISPS (International Code for the Security of Ships and Port Facilities) certified.

Don't miss one of her expeditions to Thailand and Burma, Indonesia or Malaysia!
