Sea Safari VI On-Board Facilities

Indoor, you’ll find a massive restaurant-like dining area where the 20 guests can comfortably sit and enjoy freshly cooked meals. Also, you’ll love the sizable indoor lounge area, which comes complete with a big screen television and media library.

Furthermore, if you head outside, you’ll find a cozy bar and lounge area. Indeed, this area is partly covered so you will be comfortable there even on a hot afternoon. Walk up a few stairs and you will be on the uncovered sundeck, which is the sunbathers and star gazers favorite place to be! It’s also the perfect spot for a great photo shoot as the view of Indonesia is stunning from up there!

Vessel Layout

The Sea Safari 6 is a proud member of the Sea Safari Cruises fleet, which also brought you the Cheng Ho! Also, the 2 other sisterships, which have almost the same name are the Sea Safari VII and Sea Safari 8.

The Sea Safari 6 is the smallest vessel of the fleet and welcomes only 20 divers, comparing to 24 and 28 for the others. Hence, the experience is less crowded and somewhat more personal on the SS6.
