About the trip

Day 1

After a morning pickup and boarding in Labuan Bajo, we sail toward the central park for a "check dive" at Sebayur Kecil to ensure gear and buoyancy are perfectly set in calm conditions. The second dive often takes us to Tatawa Besar for a vibrant drift over orange soft corals, followed by an evening at Kalong Island where you can watch the sunset bat migration and choose to perform a night dive to see nocturnal critters like Spanish dancers.

Day 2

We wake up early to catch the slack tide at the world-famous Batu Bolong pinnacle or Manta Point, maximizing your chance to see rays at their most active before the day-trip crowds arrive. After a final morning dive at the turtle-rich gardens of Siaba Besar, we go ashore for a guided trek at Rinca or Komodo Island to see the legendary dragons. The trip concludes with a scenic cruise back to Labuan Bajo, arriving at the harbor in the late afternoon for disembarkation.

Important Variables for Your Itinerary

Please keep in mind that a Phinisi itinerary is more of a "wish list" than a rigid schedule. To ensure your safety and comfort, the Cruise Director and Captain will modify the plan daily based on the following variables: - Tidal Currents & Moon Phases: Komodo’s currents are world-famous and can be dangerous. Full and new moons create "spring tides" with much stronger water movement, while certain iconic sites (like Batu Bolong) can only be dived during specific "slack water" windows. If the tide isn't right, the crew will swap locations to ensure you aren't fighting a hazardous current. - Weather & Seasonality: Seasonal winds dictate which areas of the park are accessible. From June to August, strong southerly winds can make the south choppy and may restrict access to Manta Alley, pushing boats toward the sheltered North. Conversely, from December to February, the North can get wavy, moving the focus to the South and Central regions. - The "Manta Factor": Flexibility is key for wildlife encounters. If manta rays are spotted in high numbers at a specific site, the crew may choose to stay longer or perform a "double dip" at one location rather than moving to the next. - Diver Experience Level: Our guides constantly assess the collective experience and comfort level of the group. If conditions at an "advanced" drift site are too intense, the Captain will prioritize sheltered sites to ensure everyone has a safe and enjoyable experience.

Day 1

The journey begins with a morning departure from Labuan Bajo, heading toward the central park for a check dive at Sebayur Kecil to ensure all gear is properly weighted. After a fresh lunch on deck, we dive the colorful reefs of Tatawa Besar, drifting past vibrant soft corals and schools of sweetlips. The evening is spent anchored near Kalong Island to witness the spectacular sunset flight of the fruit bats, followed by a quiet dinner under the stars.

Day 2

We wake up in the heart of the park to tackle the legendary Manta Point, where we drift alongside majestic rays at their cleaning stations. The midday dive features the world-class pinnacle of Batu Bolong, an "underwater cathedral" teeming with an incredible density of marine life. In the afternoon, we head to Siaba Besar to search for sea turtles and unique macro critters before enjoying a beach visit or a short sunset trek.

Day 3

The final morning takes us toward the north for a high-adrenaline dive at The Shotgun (Cauldron) or a clear-water exploration of Crystal Rock. After surfacing, we transition to land for a guided trek at a Ranger Station to encounter the famous Komodo Dragons in their rugged natural habitat. The trip concludes with a final scenic cruise back to Labuan Bajo, arriving at the harbor in the late afternoon for disembarkation.

The final day starts with the crystal-clear waters of Castle Rock, where grey reef sharks and giant trevally are known to patrol the deep. After a second northern dive at Lighthouse, the Phinisi begins its long, scenic cruise back south toward Labuan Bajo. We make a final stop for a dragon trek at Rinca Island before arriving back at the harbor in the late afternoon.

We spend the full day exploring the central icons, including Manta Point for the rays and Batu Bolong for the sheer volume of fish life. A third dive at Siaba Besar allows for a relaxed encounter with resident turtles before we move toward the northern islands.

Day 3

The Phinisi anchors in the north to dive the legendary Castle Rock and Crystal Rock, sites famous for their shark sightings and incredible visibility.

We finish with a sunset drift at The Shotgun (Cauldron) or Golden Passage before anchoring near Gili Lawa.

Day 3

The third day dives deeper into the North, returning to favorite sites or exploring Lighthouse and GPS Point if conditions allow. These nutrient-rich seamounts attract massive schools of fish. After three high-energy dives, we enjoy a quiet evening under the stars in the remote northern reach of the park.

Day 4

We cruise back toward the center for the "must-dos." The morning is spent at Manta Point (Karang Makassar), drifting over cleaning stations where majestic rays often congregate.

Speedboats focus on covering highlights efficiently within a single day and return to shore by afternoon or sunset. Liveaboard phinisi move at a slower pace, include overnight stays, and offer a more immersive experience on the water and out on land. The choice depends on whether you prefer a one-day exploration or a relaxed, multi-day journey.

Larger liveaboard phinisi are generally more stable than speedboats, which can feel more movement at higher speeds. Most routes stay within sheltered waters, but conditions can vary. If you’re prone to seasickness, we recommend calmer seasons and bringing medication as a precaution.

Most vessels offer shaded areas, open decks, and indoor spaces to rest between activities. Liveaboards include sleeping cabins or shared accommodations for overnight comfort, while day boats focus on seating and shade. Comfort levels vary by vessel, and details are always listed on each page.

Each vessel suits a different travel style. Some are ideal for couples or relaxed travelers, while others work well for families, groups, or divers. If you’re unsure, we can help match you with a vessel based on pace, comfort, and experience type.

Itineraries may be adjusted if sea or weather conditions require it. Safety and comfort always come first. If changes are needed, the captain and crew will let you know the alternative stops or adjust timing to make sure the journey stays enjoyable while avoiding rough conditions.

Activities typically include a mix of island walks, snorkeling, beach time, and scenic cruising. Some journeys may include wildlife spotting or short hikes, depending on the area and conditions. The focus is on variety and balance rather than packing the day too tightly.

Many of our experiences are designed to be approachable for first-time visitors, covering key highlights while keeping the pace manageable. The crew is experienced in guiding guests who are new to Komodo and will help make the experience comfortable and easy to follow.

Most days are moderately active, with time split between exploring, relaxing onboard, and enjoying the scenery. You won’t be rushed from place to place, and there’s usually flexibility to slow things down depending on the group and conditions.

Itineraries serve as a guideline rather than a hard-written script. While the main journey is planned, adjustments may happen based on weather, sea conditions, or group preferences. This flexibility allows the journey to feel natural rather than the common tours.

Safety always comes first. Routes or stop orders may be adjusted based on sea and weather conditions. When this happens, the crew will choose the best alternative to keep the journey safe and enjoyable.

Pack light, breathable clothing, swimwear, sun protection, and comfortable footwear. A dry bag, reef-safe sunscreen, and personal medication are also recommended. For liveaboards, basic toiletries and towels are usually provided, but details vary by vessel.

Fly into Labuan Bajo Airport from major Indonesian cities such as Bali or Jakarta. Direct flights are available daily, and most journeys start with a pickup from the airport or your hotel. We’ll share exact meeting details after booking.

Komodo can be visited year-round, with each season offering a different feel. Dry months bring calmer seas and peak travel, while shoulder and rainy seasons offer fewer crowds and greener landscapes. The best time depends on your travel style and priorities.

We understand that plans can shift. Changes, reschedules, or cancellations are handled on a case-by-case basis depending on timing and operator policies. Deposits are generally non-refundable, but in some situations, rescheduling or partial refunds may be possible with operator approval. If anything changes, just contact us as early as possible and we’ll help explore the best available options.

All payments are handled securely through Xendit, our official payment partner. You’ll receive a payment link that supports credit and debit cards, bank transfers, e-wallets, and QR payments. For your security, we never ask for payments via personal bank accounts or unofficial channels.

Final payment is typically due 21 days before departure. For some shared or one-day journeys, full payment may be required upfront. The exact payment schedule will always be clearly stated in your invoice before you commit.

Your departure date is secured with a down payment. This locks the vessel and itinerary for your chosen dates and confirms your spot with the operator. Until the deposit is made, availability is not guaranteed, especially during peak travel periods.

Once you’ve chosen a vessel and journey, just reach out to us via email or WhatsApp with your preferences (dates, number of guests, cabin type if applicable). We’ll check availability with the operator and send you a secure payment link. Once payment is made, your booking is confirmed and we’ll take care of the rest, from coordination to trip details.
