What’s included in the 11-night Cenderawasih Bay trip?

Airport/hotel transfers, 11 nights on Calico Jack, three chef-prepared meals daily plus snacks, 3–4 dives per day with alternating night dives, dive guides, tanks and weights, use of snorkeling gear, kayaks and SUPs, selected land excursions and beach BBQs. Park fees, alcohol and rental dive gear are extra.

Do I need to be an advanced diver to join?

Minimum certification is Open Water Diver. We recommend 25+ logged dives due to currents, depth and wreck profiles. Most guests are experienced and comfortable with drift and repetitive diving.

How many dives will we do?

Plan for roughly 33 dives: typically 3 day dives with alternating night dives, adjusted to conditions and group preferences.

What are the main highlights of this itinerary?

Dawn whale-shark encounters at Kwatisore; WWII wrecks near Manokwari including Shinwa Maru; sponge gardens at Tanjung Mangguar; soft-coral walls around Roon/Rippon; mixed pelagics and macro around Wairundi and the Wandammen Peninsula; village visits and a beach BBQ.

What’s the group size and diver-to-guide ratio?

Maximum 10 guests. Divers are split into small groups with a typical 1:5 guide ratio and two tenders for smooth operations.

Are non-divers welcome?

Yes. Non-divers can snorkel (including with whale sharks where appropriate), kayak, use SUPs, join beach excursions and village visits, and enjoy nature walks.

When is the best time to go?

Calico Jack schedules Cenderawasih Bay expeditions primarily for August–September for the calmest seas and most reliable whale-shark encounters.

What are the cabins like?

Five air-conditioned en-suite cabins (two double, two convertible twin/double, one twin), with hot showers, storage, daily housekeeping and traditional Indonesian woodwork.

Trips typically run Nabire → Manokwari (or reverse). Guests fly via Jakarta, Bali or Makassar with domestic connections. Our team provides transfer guidance and pickup/drop-off.

Can I complete a certification course onboard?

Private charters can arrange Open Water, Advanced and specialties. Per-cabin departures can offer Discover Scuba Diving for beginners, subject to conditions.
