The underwater photography cruises aboard the Archipelago Adventurer II are hosted on what is certainly one of the best equipped photography liveaboards in Indonesia. She visits the most scenic and historic sites in Indonesia, perhaps even the world and so a frequent request from divers aboard is to have a high level of photographic facilities for the underwater photography cruises. There are a tremendous amount of truly memorable sights and photographic opportunities throughout the voyage. As recognition of this fact, all staterooms are fitted with writing desks providing space for lap tops and journals so guests aboard can make notes about their jouney. However, despite the great topside photographic opportunities, the voyages are often referred to as underwater photography cruises, simply because of the quality wideangle and macro subjects to be found across Indonesia.
"I have to commend Archipelago Fleet designers for designating such a large area of the boat for underwater photo gear… the camera area is larger than most liveaboard dining areas, iit's on the main level of the ship, and is a controlled indoor environment perfect for taking care of your expensive gear."

As with all premium photography liveaboards, the Adventurer II's facilities for digital and film photographers are impressive, with the largest camera room to be found aboard any Indonesian dive liveaboard. A perfect space for individual photographers editing their underwater or topside shots, but also a communal area for lectures, seminars and other requirements of underwater photography cruises. There is an extensive underwater identification library, and interesting reading about the varied and diverse regions the vessel cruises. Also with underwater photography cruises in mind, she is also equipped with 110 and 220 volt charging facilities for all necessary cameras, videos, lights and strobes. |
