Kelly review

USA, Kelly and Terry

Terry and I just wanted to reach out to share feedback and thank you for such a great trip. It was everything we had hoped for and more. The boat was beautiful and we were all shocked at how amazing the food was! It's the best we have ever eaten on a liveaboard, let alone any dive resorts we've been to, so for that standard to be cooked in the small kitchen on the boat, wow. The crew were all super friendly and went above and beyond. The energy and the vibes were exactly what we had hoped for and that is something that money cannot buy. Every single person on that boat is an absolute credit to your company, you should be very proud.

Went on a 9 day trip through North Raja Ampat over New Year's 2017-2018. Adam and Julie were great. Indonesian staff was extremely friendly and accomodating. Boat had charm. Food was good. Raja Ampat is stunning. Price seemed very fair.

What an adventure it was to join this trip! If you want something unique, different than your usual liveaboards, then you need to experience what Adam and his crew have to offer. They make sure you feel at home with their sincerity and quick responses to whatever you need. The same approach continues underwater; their attention to detail, safety, and funfilled dives made our New Year trip memorable. The food, the spontaneity and good friendship made it worthwhile to travel all the way to this amazing remote place!

I have been diving for over 30 years and this was undoubtedly the best diving I have experienced. Visibility was not fantastic, but this did bring the big fish close to the dive sites: mantas, huge trevally, black tips and barracuda etc. I was amazed by the huge gorgonians and the incredible abundance of marine life. Whilst I'm sure that most of the liveaboards in the region can offer the same dives, the on board experience will always be different. Despite the professional way in which this boat is run, it feels like a happy family. Many thanks to Julie and her wonderful crew for making this such a memorable trip both above and below the water. Terima Kasih tout le monde!

PENELOPE LOW, USA

Excellent boat, crew and diving. We had the best vacation of our lives and would repeat it in a heartbeat. Getting there was the hardest part, but perhaps that is the reason the coral reefs are still pristine and the marine life flourishing. The dive sites were stunning. My most memorable moment was watching a batfish being cleaned less than a meter away from us, and on another dive encountering a school of over 100 batfish. Finding the baby Wobbegong shark and perfectly posed pygmy seahorse, as well as various curious species of anenome clown fish were close seconds, thirds and fourths.

NICOLA AND ROBIN EDDEN, AUS

Calico Jack is a wonderful Indonesian wooden ship and we had a great adventure. The diving was exceptional and well-planned. The food was good and amazing to see such gourmet delights coming from such a small kitchen. Staff were friendly and attentive. Sadly our only complaint is the need for a bit more care with loading equipment off and on the dive boats. Suggestions for a more rigid upright cylinder holder on the RIB have been made and clients – please check that all equipment is securely attached to the BCD.

HAYDN, UK

Brilliant trip. The boat is magnificent, really well thought out, very clean and well maintained. The crew couldn’t possibly be more helpful and the food is good. We did the Komodo trip and the Diving was always good, the reefs are in really good condition and full of life. We really felt that the emphasis was on giving you a good experience rather than just making money.

JOHN & MAUREEN LANGSTON, USA

Ten stars!!! Everything about the vessel, the crew, the service, the food and diving was amazing and top notch!! We knew that diving with whale sharks, manta rays and seeing the gorgeous pristine corals would be incredible, but were delighted that the Calico Jack and crew lived up to the rave reviews.

KIM THEODORIDOU BERGQIST, Sweden

We stayed on Calico Jack in Raja Ampat. This liveaboard is absolutely fantastic! You can’t find a better boat. The crew is amazing. They are not only friendly and very professional, but they also contribute to good energy on the boat with many laughs and jokes.

JAMES AND LEWIS, UK

We were quite honestly blown away by our experience. The whole trip was very well organized and executed, and each and every member of your staff were exemplary. The small touches you added with the fresh coffee, bean bags, excursions and complimentary soft drinks on board were just the icing on the cake.

The Legend of Calico Jack

Calico Jack Charters

Calico Jack Rackham, a fearless pirate, built his notorious reputation sailing under the infamous Jolly Roger flag across the Caribbean. Leading a crew of outcasts, Jack navigated dangerous waters with boldness and charm. His legendary status, however, was solidified through his partnership with the fiery Anne Bonny. Defying the expectations of her time, Anne disguised herself as a man to join Jack’s crew, and together they plundered ships and lived a life of adventure and freedom on the open ocean.

At Calico Jack Charters, we channel that same spirit of exploration. Join us as we sail through the stunning seascapes of Indonesia, where every journey offers the excitement and thrill of discovery, just like the legendary tales of Calico Jack and Anne Bonny.
