Bajak | Komodo

Boat

Bajak is a charming Indonesian phinisi-style liveaboard, built in 2015 with reclaimed ironwood and teak that gives her a warm, classic seafaring feel with a hint of pirate character. At 28 m in length and a beam of around 7–8 m, she offers spacious outdoor and shaded deck areas for relaxing between dives and enjoying the scenery of Komodo’s rugged islands and turquoise waters.

The boat operates primarily in Komodo National Park, providing access to some of Indonesia’s most world-renowned dive sites, from gentle coral gardens to exhilarating drift dives and manta cleaning stations. The deck features generous lounging spaces with beanbags and sun mattresses for socialising or soaking in the sun, while the shaded dive deck keeps your gear organised and comfortable throughout your trip.

Bajak’s cruising speed is moderate, suitable for the park’s distances, and she is partly powered by solar panels to support a quieter and more eco-friendly time onboard.

South Komodo - Padar & Manta Alley - 5D4N (15 dives)

Day 1
We start our adventure with a relaxing dive at Sebayur Kecil, where vibrant reefs and welcoming fish greet you in Komodo’s underwater wonderland. Next, we head to Mawan, a lovely sandy slope that often turns into a playground for graceful manta rays. Once the sun goes down, it's time to gear up for a night dive at Padar Kecil. It’s a completely different experience down there when the reef comes alive at night, imagine hunting lionfish, sleeping parrotfish, and glowing plankton.

Day 2
Kick off your day at Colleen Corner, a vibrant spot brimming with life and the perfect opportunity to catch a glimpse of passing pelagics. Next, we’re heading to one of Komodo’s must-see spots: Manta Alley! Enjoy the sight of mantas gracefully gliding above cleaning stations, often just inches away from your mask. After lunch, take a leisurely stroll along Loh Sera Ridge, a charming spot featuring stunning corals, impressive reef formations, and that delightful “hidden gem” vibe. And just when you think the day’s over, we dive again, a night dive at Loh Sera, where nudibranchs, octopus, and all things weird and wonderful come out to play.

Day 3
We're off to the south-central sites, beginning with The Needle, a beautiful pinnacle that's surrounded by swirling schools of fish and lovely soft coral gardens. Then glide along End of the Wall, where vertical drop-offs and sea fans create a picture-perfect scene at every turn. After a relaxing dive at Secret Garden, filled with macro critters and serene reef vibes, we’ll make our way to Padar Island for a lovely sunset hike.

Day 4
Starting the day with Komodo Island exploration alongside real Komodo dragons on their beautiful island. After that exciting land adventure, we dive right into the fun underwater. First stop: Batu Bolong, a magnificent reef teeming with life, sharks, turtles, anthias, you name it. Next, we head north to dive at Crystal Rock, known for its currents and exciting pelagic activity. If you enjoy thrilling drifts, The Cauldron (Shotgun) is coming up next! We’ll glide through a narrow channel, spotting batfish, and perhaps even some mantas along the way.

Day 5
We finish our adventure with two of North Komodo’s treasures. First, Castle Rock is where the excitement begins as soon as you arrive, schools of trevallies, hunting jacks, and the possibility of big surprises await you.
