Day 1: Embarkation

Embarkation at the harbour of Ambon starts from 08:00 to 15:00. Only transfers from Ambon Domestic Airport are included in the cruise package. Hotel/resort transfers to the embarkation point can be organised by Solitude with a 3rd party transportation to organise with your resort/hotel to be transferred directly to the embarkation point or to Ambon Domestic Airport Terminal, where we can pick you up from 08:00 onwards. Upon boarding Solitude Adventurer, a welcome from the rest of our crew awaits you. Orientation and registration (remember your C-cards and/or Log Books!) will begin once you are welcomed. You are encouraged to complete your registration and general liability release forms before embarkation; this way, you will save yourself some time with the orientation and can use this towards getting yourself settled in and rested! If you have not, there is nothing to worry about, as you can complete them after the orientation to hand them to your cruise directors. During the registration, Permit and National Park fees will be collected as well. Lunch and/or Dinner are included.

Day 2-7:

3-4 dives per day to famous dive sites, such as Karang Hatta, Banda Neira, and Pulau Manuk. A typical day on board: light breakfast, dive, big breakfast, dive, lunch, dive, afternoon snack, night dive, and dinner.

DAY 8:

We will begin sailing back to Ambon after the second dive. Your last dive must conform to our 18-hour no-fly/no-altitude policy.

Day 9:

No diving, disembarkation (Ambon) at 11:00. After a big breakfast, we will organise an appreciation briefing followed by final disembarkation for our guests. Unfortunately, we are unable to accommodate late Check-out requests as we must prepare for the new cruise the next day.
