Komodo Highlights Central + North | 3D2N (7 dives + 1 night dive)

Day 1
Meet us at the dive shop at 08:30 AM before we board the boat and set course for the northern part of Komodo National Park... where the adventure begins!

Today, you’ll explore two of Komodo’s most iconic dive sites: Castle Rock and Crystal Rock. On calmer days, you’ll be mesmerised by the intricate beauty of the coral-covered walls — vibrant, colorful, and teeming with life.

As the sun sets, we’ll anchor near Pulau Bugis, a pristine and untouched beach, perfect for a peaceful evening walk or simply soaking in the magic of Komodo.

These dramatic pinnacles are renowned for their thrilling currents, which attract schools of sharks, giant trevallies, and countless reef fish dancing in the blue.

Day 2
Kick off your day with a heart-pounding drift dive at the legendary Shotgun site — a narrow channel where strong currents funnel marine life into a spectacular underwater show. Expect to encounter eagle rays, reef sharks, and sometimes even manta rays, all dancing in the flow.

Later, we’ll head to the central area of the park to dive Batu Bolong, often described as an underwater aquarium. From the surface down to 30 meters, the reef bursts with color, soft corals, and marine life in every direction — a photographer’s dream.

End your diving day at Tatawa Besar, where a gentle drift will carry you across a lush coral garden, past giant sponges, reef sharks, and schools of tropical fish.

In the evening, enjoy a truly magical sight: hundreds of flying bats rising from the mangroves at sunset — a natural spectacle you’ll never forget.

Day 3
Wake up at Manta Point (Makasar Reef) — the longest dive site in Komodo, and one of its most iconic. Drift gently through the channels as graceful manta rays glide past cleaning stations. Keep your eyes peeled for other surprise visitors: bumphead parrotfish, eagle rays, bamboo sharks, and more.

Next, dive into the vibrant world of Tatawa Kecil, a thrilling drift site overflowing with soft and hard corals, and schools of fusiliers, trevallies, snappers, and barracudas.

Finally, complete your Komodo adventure on land with a guided visit to see the legendary Komodo Dragons. Learn everything about these awe-inspiring, prehistoric reptiles from a local ranger in their natural habitat.

Komodo Highlights Central + South | 3D2N (7 dives + 1 night dive)

Day 1
Meet us at the dive shop at 08:30 AM. Your odyssey begins beneath the waves at Sebayur Kecil, where a tranquil coral garden welcomes you with open arms. In these serene, sun-dappled waters, you'll ease into the dreamlike world of Komodo’s reefs.

From there, surrender to the current at Mawan, where the ocean breathes in slow motion and majestic manta rays glide like shadows across the coral reef.

As daylight softens, step ashore on the enchanting shores of Pink Beach — a delicate ribbon of blush-colored sand, kissed by turquoise waters — the perfect finale to your first day in paradise.

Day 2
Awaken to a world alive with color at Colleen’s Corner, where clouds of anthias dance in a kaleidoscope of movement, and reef sharks or eagle rays might drift through like passing spirits.

Then, venture south to the fabled Manta Alley — a pulse-quickening dive site where mantas soar through the sea in elegant formation, as if choreographed by the currents themselves.

Later, float through the quiet wonder of Secret Garden, a gentle reef blooming with soft corals and tiny marvels tucked into every crevice.

As golden hour arrives, ascend the rugged trail of Padar Island to witness the sun melt into the horizon, painting the sky in a blaze of unforgettable color.

Day 3
Begin your final day with a step back in time on Komodo Island, where the ancient dragons still roam — powerful, prehistoric, and awe-inspiring.

Then, return to the sea for a dive at Batu Bolong, a towering cathedral of coral that rises from the depths, alive with shimmering trevallies, vibrant reef fish, and every shade of the underwater spectrum.

Finally, let Tatawa Kecil offer you one last embrace — a gentle drift past swaying sea fans, fields of soft coral, and the occasional turtle or barracuda gliding past, as if bidding you farewell from this realm of ocean magic.
