For diving liveaboards in Indonesia — Komodo, Raja Ampat, the Banda Sea — we partner with Ocean Earth Travels. We don’t operate the boats ourselves, so when guests ask us about multi-day cruises we send them straight to a team that does it full-time.
The trip we recommend most often
A 3-day, 2-night Komodo Open Trip aboard the El Ashar — the boat covers the classic Komodo loop in a window that fits most travellers’ Bali → Labuan Bajo itinerary.
Itinerary
- Day 1. Kelor Island · Manjarite · Kalong Island.
- Day 2. Padar Island · Long Beach (Pink Beach) · Komodo Island · Taka Makassar · Manta Point.
