The Tidak Apa’Pa liveaboard is all about relaxed and intimate diving cruises. A maximum of only 8 guests are accommodated in 4 canopied double cabins and everyone shares a single bathroom. You're sure to get to know your fellow divers very well over when dining together or socialising on the sun deck, relaxing on comfortable beans bags. Why not bring your family or group of close friends along for your diving cruise?
The accommodation may be basic, however guests' safety is of paramount importance. Tidak Apa'Pa is equipped with life jackets, fire alarms and fire extinguishers and the dive masters carry Nautilus life lines while diving. The cruise director is an avid photographer and a marine biologist so your Indonesian scuba diving tour will be the perfect opportunity to pick up some underwater photography tips. You can take that perfect shot! The dive deck is fitted with a separate camera rinse tank and dedicated charging stations. Although this is a budget friendly liveaboard, it is rebreather friendly. Get certified before your vacation, bring along your gear and enhance your chances of close encounters! Alternatively, just be a regular diver. Either way, you are in good hands.
With its communal type accommodation, awesome itineraries and price that is gentle on the wallet, Tidak Apa'Pa may just tick all the right boxes for your next Indonesian liveaboard diving vacation!
