Read in the order you'll need them
Start with the first open trip guide. It covers the boat, the cabin and the date, then the morning you board. Read the snorkel day guide the week before you fly, for currents, tides, kit and the odds on mantas.
The solo guide follows a day from one seat, for anyone traveling alone. The budget guide adds up the trip line by line, from the fare to the park ticket.
Four guides, one price card
Every guide uses the same per-person prices, from IDR 4,350,000 (≈ USD 267), and the same rule: park tickets are always separate. The open trip runs 3 days and 2 nights on both boats.

FAQ
Which guide should I read first?
Read the first open trip guide. It sets out the boat, the cabin and the date, then the morning you board. After that, read the snorkel day guide the week before you fly. Both end with a checklist.
Do the guides show prices?
Yes. The cheapest seat is a Superior cabin from IDR 4,350,000 (≈ USD 267) per person, and Full Ocean is IDR 5,350,000 (≈ USD 328). NK Jaya 2 adds the Master Ocean at IDR 6,050,000 (≈ USD 371). Park tickets are a separate line in every guide.
Are the guides about both boats?
Yes. NK Jaya 1 sails with up to 14 guests and NK Jaya 2 with 12 to 13. The guides name the boat whenever a fact belongs to one of them only.
Do the guides promise mantas or turtles?
No. Sightings change with season, tide and current. The snorkel guide gives the odds month by month and says which months tilt them your way, so you can pick dates with the best chance.
