on

We have received reports this morning that Worldwide Dive and Sail’s Fiji Siren has been sadly lost at sea.

All guests and crew are safe.

This statement is taken from the Worldwide Dive and Sail Facebook Page:

We are very sad to announce that during her current cruise Fiji Siren has been lost and we are currently conducting a full and thorough investigation.

Most importantly, all guest and crew are safe and well with arrangements being made for our guests to begin their journey home. No guest or crew member was injured during this incident and we commend the actions of our team for following our stringent emergency training protocols which resulted in the swift evacuation and handling of the situation.

As our loyal, repeat customers know, Worldwide Dive and Sail customer and crew safety is our highest priority. We have consistently refined our safety standards and procedures to deal with any emergency situation and it is a testament to these high standards, that include weekly emergency training, drills and on board state of the art safety equipment, that this unfortunate event was managed so well.

The team at Worldwide Dive and Sail are already looking at options for customers currently booked with the Fiji Siren. If you are due to travel aboard the Fiji Siren our team will be contacting you shortly. We would be very grateful for your patience as we are prioritising immediate upcoming trips. However, if you have urgent questions about your booking then please email fiji@sirenfleet.com

We thank you for your support and understanding and remain grateful that this situation was not of a more serious nature.

Our thoughts are with the Worldwide Dive and Sail team. We will bring you more on this story when we have it.
