Komodo's Legendary Dive Sites & Marine Life

Komodo National Park offers some of the planet's most spectacular diving. The convergence of the Indian and Pacific Oceans creates nutrient-rich currents supporting extraordinary biodiversity.

Northern Sites Best: Apr–Nov

  • • Castle Rock — Grey reef sharks
  • • Crystal Rock — Schooling fish
  • • The Shotgun — Current Experience
  • • Golden Passage — Amazing drifts

Central Sites Good: Year-round

  • • Siaba Besar — Turtle highway
  • • Pengah Kecil — Macro paradise
  • • Mawan & Manta Point — Year-round Manta
  • • Batu Bolong — Most iconic Pinnacle

Southern Sites Peak: Dec–Mar

  • • Manta Alley — Oceanic mantas
  • • Nusa Kode — Soft corals
  • • Cannibal Rock — Macro heaven
  • • End of the World — Dramatic scenery & Hammerhead Sharks

Komodo offers diving all year, but conditions vary by season. Here's a breakdown to help you plan your adventure:

December – March

Rainy season, fewer boats. Best for South Komodo & Padar, cooler water, mantas frequent; gorgeous soft corals & macro.

April – June

Transition into peak for North & Central: calmer seas, blooming reefs, improving visibility.

July – August

Dry-season peak. Stronger currents in the North for epic drifts; excellent visibility. Mantas are more elusive at this time of year — you’ll need a bit of luck to spot them.

September – November

Warm water, fewer crowds; mantas return south. One of the best windows to explore all regions.

Planning your route around seasons and using Nitrox helps you make the most of Komodo’s currents, sites and marine life.
