The truth is we can give you access to numerous completely deserted islands. You can pick your place from the charts; we will land you on shore with chairs, umbrellas, cold drinks/food, and a handheld radio. You decide how long you stay and what you want to do. Provide the dream and we will insure the details.

This may sound too good to be true but it is both possible and easy to access!!!! The Bugis Pirate Ship "Tidak Apapa" wants sailors with dreams to come and explore/adventure with us!!! Located 1 hour flight from Bali in the port city of Makassar, South Sulawesi, you will be on the boat and looking at islands within 1 hour of landing.

If Scuba Diving is your dream we are ready to please. Kodingareng Keke is our nearest jewel, 10 km. from the city, with great diving. Kapoposang is rich in diversity with dramatic steep walls. Turtles, Mantas, even the occasional Silvertip Shark (yes I said silvertip) are there. Taka Bakang is an Atoll 60 miles offshore with a Submarine wreck. Do not forget the fishing is as great as the diving.

- Day 2: Early morning arrival at Pulau Kapoposang. This is the diving jewel of Macassar. We will dive till we drop and those that do not dive will swim, sun, and snorkel on the beautiful white sand beach. We will eat on the boat and again enjoy a flaming sunset and brilliant starlights. "Captains Orders'
- Day 3: Sail to Pulau Badi and enjoy a deserted island to ourselves. Again we will dive if desired and travel plans permit. Sail back to Macassar with the afternoon breeze under the black sails of the Bugis Pirate Ship. Transfer available to the airport or hotel.
