ARCHIPELAGO RESORTS & FLEET
WHO WE ARE
The Archipelago Adventurer II is a luxury liveaboard offering cruises
to the magical Banda Sea, Maluku. The newly-built wooden vessel is a
unique fusion of traditional and modern with the emphasis on space and
convenience, she is without doubt the most luxurious vessel cruising
Indonesian waters. Cruises allow divers and explorers to enjoy the
delights of the Maluku region, particularly the historic Banda islands.
With spectacular cultural and scenic wonders as well as the chance to
dive Indonesia's most untouched reefs and prolific marine life, Maluku
is one of the most unique destinations in the world.
The luxurious facilities aboard the Archipelago Adventurer II make her amongst the best-equipped vessels in the industry. The spacious cabins are a/c, en-suite and have thick flat-mattress hotel style beds. She is essentially a floating boutique resort offering the chance to explore remote islands in Indonesia without sacrificing luxury amenities.
