Komodo tours, diving & snorkelling

Island-hop by speedboat or Phinisi, or drop beneath the surface with our dive team. Most guests do a little of both.

Wake up where the day trips can't reach

Sleep aboard between the islands. Climb Padar before sunrise, meet the dragons in the cool of morning and dive the manta channels before anyone else arrives.

Good to know

Komodo National Park, answered

The park now limits entry to 1,000 visitors a day, with date-locked, passport-linked entries — so it pays to secure your dates early.

Ask our team
01Where is Komodo?

Komodo National Park lies between Sumbawa and Flores in East Nusa Tenggara, Indonesia. Trips leave from Labuan Bajo on the western tip of Flores, where our office is.

02How much does it cost to visit Komodo?

On top of your tour, the park charges a daily entrance fee (IDR 250,000 per person), a harbour fee (IDR 25,000), a diver fee (IDR 25,000 per day) and ranger fees for Padar, Komodo or Rinca. We confirm exactly what is included before you book.

03Can I scuba dive in Komodo without a license?

Yes. Our SSI Try Dive takes non-certified guests diving with a professional, and the Open Water course certifies you during your stay.

04What is a Komodo liveaboard trip, and is it worth it?

A liveaboard is a multi-day boat trip where you sleep on board, so you reach sites early and further afield than day trips allow.

05Is diving in Komodo dangerous?

Komodo is known for its currents. We dive with a maximum of four divers per guide, brief every dive and carry radios, life rafts and emergency oxygen on every boat.

06When is the best time for a Komodo boat trip?

Komodo can be visited all year, with conditions shifting by season. Send us your dates and we will recommend the route that suits the sea and the wildlife.
