Highlights
The Jaya Phinisi Indonesia offers liveaboard dive trips to Raja Ampat from November to May and Komodo from late June to late September. Raja Ampat itineraries visit some of the best areas in the region, including Arborek Island, Penemu, Kawe, Gam, and Mioskon, with the chance of up to 4 dives per day. In the heart of the Coral Triangle, Raja Ampat should be at the top of any diver's bucket list. Komodo itineraries explore world-class dive sites, and an additional option for Rinca for trekking to see Komodo Dragons. Dive groups are kept small - max 4:1, to ensure everyone gets the best out of their Indonesia liveaboard. The dive deck has space for all divers, plus areas to store fins, masks, and wetsuits. There are also freshwater containers for cameras and torches, and the experienced crew is always on-hand with a smile to help out when needed.
The 23m Jaya caters to 14 guests in 7 cabins on the lower deck. There are 4 twin cabins with 2 shared bathrooms, 2 double ensuite cabins, and 1 double with a single ensuite, all with AC, charging sockets, fresh towels, and bedding. The twin cabins are mixed-gender shared (gender neutral). The upper deck has shaded space for relaxing in-between dives and enjoying the stunning Raja Ampat scenery, and the sun deck is equipped with bean bags.

Jaya Magic, Diving, Dolphins and the Best Crew at Sea
Fantastic Liveaboard Experience on the Jaya I just returned from an incredible 11-day, 10-night liveaboard adventure on the Jaya, and itexceeded every expectation. Rachel is truly the heart of the operation—an exceptional planner and the go-to problemsolver on the boat. She went above and beyond to adjust the schedule so I coulddisembark a day early, and I’m endlessly grateful for her care and flexibility. A special shout-out to Erika, who quite literally saved me when a strong current knockedout my mouthpiece. She was at my side instantly—swimming like a dolphin—calm, fast,and absolutely amazing. Eduard and Fandi are outstanding guides. They pointed out so much marine life I would have missed on my own: sharks, squid, electric clams etc. Their passion and expertise made every dive unforgettable. There were several guests on board who were returning for their third time—if that doesn’t tell you how special the Jaya is, nothing will. Highly recommend.

Outstanding crew, Dives and food. One of the best i have done.
My son and I had an amazing trip on Jaya, the crew and dive guides were outstanding and the locations chosen were mind blowing. Food was exceptional, i don't know how chef made that chicken so good and the tempeh may have me as a convert. The other guests were fun and like minded and we all had a great laugh on our downtime. Will treasure the memories.

Trip of a lifetime, cool group and cool dives
I had an amazing time on Jaya. The trip was very well organized, I enjoyed all the activities on and off board. The diving was spectacular and so were the land visits we did. We had a really fun group that paired also well with the guides. Rachel, Erika, Fandi and Ed our dive guides made sure we had great experiences under water and everyone sticked to the explained safety rules. I will definitely be back on Jaya!

11 Days Ambon to Waisai
I loved every Minute of those 11 days on the Liveaboard Jaya. What an awesome and experienced team. Would definitely go again. Just to make sure, bathrooms are shared, unless you have a private one in the cabin. There is no nitrox

Just perfect
Simply phenomenal dive guides and crew, and an overall great vibe on board this charming yet perfectly functional old school wooden boat. Good food, esp. breakfasts! Super well-crafted itinerary, including beautiful shore visits. Incredible diving - lots of mantas, sharks, tons of fish, amazing coral. Fun downtime with games, cards, and beer. The perfect holiday, we would happily do it again. And again and again...

Magical diving with top notch guides with solid value for money
Raja Ampat is magical. Some of the best diving and days I've ever had. The dive guides on Jaya were knowledgeable and highly skilled, able to guide photographers and wanderers with a friendly demeanour at all times The crew were always happy to interact and clearly took pride in providing a great service and making diving and preparation easy. Aside from the mantas, the pygmy seahorse, the sharks, the octopus, the batfish, the coral, the nemos, the cuttlefish, the wobbegong, the nudibranches and the barracuda. Jaya has comfortable chill areas to relax and socialise while spotting whales and dolphins between dives The cabins are basic but with air con and fresh sheets - but I slept like a log every night, maybe due to the action packed days.

- The crew and guides were all excellent - made sure to make you feel at home and point out some hard to find wildlife. the food was plentiful and delicious. the itinerary was well managed with great variation in dive sites and deliberate efforts to dive with as few other boats as possible.
