Jakare’ was a dive trip of a lifetime!
Dive trip of a lifetime following the lead of our crew director, Audrey and dive master, Sahril. They were very well organized getting us ready for up to 30 dives in 12 days. Special highlight was being visited by a whale shark and hanging out with the manta rays. With only 10 passengers total we have tremendous service from all of the crew and food was amazing. Come hungry because the chef serves lots of food all day! Left the boat with new friends and amazing memories.

There were only highlights. Audrey was indescribably great and also the crew was great, super great. Everything was all a highlight. Thank you for the wonderful time that I will never forget. I'm already thinking about it, if I have the time, to spend Christmas with these great people. Thank you

Excellent and cozy trip
The trip was great and we had fewer than expected divers on the trip which actually made it more cozy and we got to know each other very well. New friends were made!

Perfect vacation
The diving was world class. The ship itself is gorgeous. The food was amazing. The excursions were excellent. The crew were all wonderful. No complaints, it was expensive but we can’t wait to visit again.

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.

A truly wonderful boat and crew
The Jakare was absolutely faultless from start to finish. Nicolas the cruise director is incredibly professional, accomodating and enthusiastic always giving brilliant dive briefings before each dive and is clearly extremely liked and respected by the crew. We dived with Manssu who was a dab-hand at finding all the hard-to-find critters in Raja Ampat and clearly absolutely loves what he does which is so important in a divemaster. As for the wizzard in the kitchen Chef Burhan, he really made us such delicious meals 3 times a day which were a very good reason to come up from a dive! However this 35m vessel runs and works as beautifully as it does due to a collective effort by all crew members who were all just a brilliant. This was a 10-day Raja Ampat cruise and culminated in an amazing trek through the jungle to see the Red-bird of paradise which is such a unique experience when visiting this region. Look no further!
