Jakaré: Such a memorable experience!
We spent the most amazing seven days exploring the magnificent Komodo National Park in Indonesia. We had such a beautiful experience on board - Jakaré crew and cruise director made the entire trip unforgettable! They were fantastic and full of energy and good vibes only. Always smiling, helping and taking care of us. We felt safe and special every single day - they greeted us every time we came back to Jakaré in our speedboats in such a lovely way that makes you feel home and super special. The cruise itinerary is one of a kind and we enjoyed every single day- all activities were superb and well balanced and combined over the days (diving/snorkeling, hiking, kayaking, trekking visiting Komodo dragons), every meal was delicious always made with love, full of Indonesians flavors and exceptional presentations - the chef spoiled us every single day! Bintang and good wine were always available at a very reasonable price. We were so lucky to share the boat with such lovely guests! We shared dives, meals, drinks, conversations and laughs every day on board of such a gorgeous boat- perfectly suited for intimate and small groups. We spent our birthdays and engagement on board and Jakaré made the celebrations truly memorable and full of love. We all became such a big family at the end of the trip while enjoying our last beautiful beachside dinner at sunset on Pulau Anita private island with bioluminescence in the water. Truly! One of a kind experience! The diving/snorkeling experience was exceptional, with such beautiful and massive marine biodiversity. Breathtaking landscapes all around the cruise trip, pristine waters and amazing sandy private beaches. Komodo National Park is indeed one of the best diving destinations ❤️

Wonderful trip, amazing crew!
Jakaré is a beautiful boat and Audrey and her crew work tirelessly to ensure everyone has a wonderful time. The rooms and en-suites are large with hot showers 🥳. There’s AC at night and during the day fans to keep you cool. I started my day with coffee and toast before the first dive and there was always a pot of fresh coffee waiting for me. Breakfast after the first dive was substantial, choice of eggs, noodles or rice, fresh fruit etc. Lunch was also substantial with 4 large plates of various meat, fish and vegetarian dishes (all were very good). Dinner a 3 course affair with salad, main and dessert. In short the food was plentiful and really good. And there was a delicious cake everyday at 3ish. Diving was in small groups and despite going to Komodo in high season (July) we generally had the dive sites to ourselves, or there was one other group which was easily avoided. The diving was wonderful and Audrey and crew clearly know the dive sites really well. I absolutely loved my time on Jakaré and would definitely go again! If you’re over 60 you’ll need a signed medical form from a hyperbaric doctor.

Fabulous time on the Jakaré
We had a fabulous 12 days in the Raja Ampat area on the Jakaré liveaboard. We were warmly welcomed by the cruise & dive manager, the incredible Audrey. The crew was amazing, lead by Captain Thalib. They were all helpful, cheerful, adept at all they do--and delightful musicians, as well. The enthusiastic "hello, hello hello!" greeting everytime we returned to the boat from a dive or excursion never got old. Food was delicious and plentiful, and our individual tastes or food needs were met with pleasure. My wife and I booked the lovely cabin at the back and enjoyed views off the stern. We were some of the least experienced divers, and Audrey helped us out by making available, at a good price, a private dive master. Stefan really helped make our dive experiences safe and enjoyable. We loved the Misool area, especially. Can't say enough about how hard Audrey works, and how enjoyable she made our vacation. She's an amazing young woman, and because of her love for diving, we can't wait to explore more dive adventures. In the end, I'd like to give a shout out to Mael at Liveaboard.com who tirelessly answered all our questions, made sure we submitted all required information on time, and suggested to us the private dive master. She was great to work with.
