About Komodo
Komodo offers an incredible variety of underwater experiences. Drift through fish-filled channels, explore colourful coral gardens, dive dramatic pinnacles swept by nutrient-rich currents, and encounter everything from tiny pygmy seahorses and nudibranchs to turtles, reef sharks, giant trevally and schooling barracuda.
Manta rays are a highlight, with several dives planned at sites renowned for regular encounters with these graceful giants, while iconic locations such as Batu Bolong, Castle Rock, Crystal Rock and Manta Point are among Indonesia's most iconic dive sites.
The itinerary also includes a guided walk on Komodo Island to see the world's largest lizard in its natural habitat, adding an unforgettable topside experience to an already exceptional week.
