14 guests are accommodated in twin and triple-share cabins with shared bathrooms. Your lower deck cabin will be well ventilated from the portholes and ceiling window. Individually controlled air conditioners and fans are available for your added comfort. A touch of luxury comes in the form of fresh, organic towels and linen.
The Jaya has benefitted from the experience of the same captain who will navigate you to the best sites with the most favourable conditions during your Indonesia diving tour. Your dive equipment is stored on the main deck, where there is dedicated space for your personal smaller items. Fresh water tanks are conveniently situated for you to rinse your all important camera gear.
The large shaded dining area is the place to meet fellow divers during meal times or between dives. Here is where you can swap diving stories, complete your log book, or gather for dive briefings. The sun deck is the perfect spot to relax on the large bean bags or sun mats.
If a no frills Indonesian liveaboard vacation where you can tour and dive some of the world’s best spots with an experienced team, is what you’re looking for, then this could be the option for you.

How to get there: Raja Ampat: The KLM Jaya liveaboard departs from Waisai in West Papua. You can fly directly to Sorong from Jakarta, Ujung Pandang (Makassar) and Manado.

There is a return complimentary transfer service from the Meridien Hotel in Sorong to the ferry (the ferry price from Sorong to Waisai is included in the trip cost). It is recommended to arrive one day before departure. Meeting time at the Meridien Hotel is 07:30 hrs to make the 9:00 ferry. Guests already in Waisai meet at the tourist information in Waisai harbor at 11:00 hrs.
Komodo: Labuan Bajo is the departure port for the Jaya's Komodo trips. Meeting point is the Scuba Republic office on the main street, Jalan Soekarno Hatta. It is advised that guests arrive one day prior to the start of their cruise to complete their paperwork and arrange equipment rental (if required) at the Scuba Republic office in Labuan Bajo (office closes at 19:00 hrs). Guests on 4D/3N trips taking the speedboat transfer to the Jaya (day 4 of the 7 day trip), MUST come to the Scuba Republic office in town on the day before the trip departure for check-in. On the day of departure, all guests meet at the office at 08:00 hrs for bag drop and check-in. Meet again at the office at 10:00 hrs for boarding. Domestic flight from Bali to Labuan Bajo is approximately 1 hour.
For more information see our travel information section. The last dive of the trip will be at around 10:00 hrs on the last day of the trip. Please wait at least 18 hours before flying after diving.
