Liveaboard Diving in Komodo: Everything You Need to Know
Join Dragon Dive Komodo fleet and explore exotic dive sites in Komodo National Park, Indonesia
By that logic, you wouldn't take your open water certification in the first place – never mind even thinking about going underwater.
Let's be honest; scuba diving is one of the most rewarding adventure sports. Regardless of your level – beginner or experienced – age, and interests, there is something for everybody. You're in a constant learning process, whether that is taking your next step in your diving education with a PADI specialty course or setting off to a new exotic dive holiday destination.
Chances are you've caught the highly contagious diving bug. Because you often face a tight time constraint on your daily activities, you do one or two diving days during your whole holiday. Doing liveaboard diving will give you exclusive access to exciting marine encounters.
Going on liveaboard diving trips will not only make you a better diver, but it will be a treat to have unforgettable holidays!
Why Choose Liveaboard Diving? Top Benefits
Everything on board is catered for around diving, which means you have to roll out of bed and into your wetsuit and be ready to be amazed by nature's beauty. On average, you can do three to four dives per day.
If you're not Nitrox certified already, you might want to consider enrolling in the half-day PADI Enriched Air Diver Specialty Course and spending more time underwater.
Did you know? Komodo liveaboard diving trips also offer night dives! If you believe diving is not limited to daytime only, grab a torch and shine a light on this idyllic aquatic world after dark. Sign up for the PADI Night Diver Course.
With your accommodation, food, and dives included, you're in for a deal. Dragon Dive Komodo liveaboard diving also organizes hiking trips to nearby islands. So you get to see first-class views both underwater and on land.
Because of the distance needed to travel to reach some of the world's best dive sites, day trips cannot go there. Most of these remote dive sites are wild and unspoiled by human presence.
Liveaboard diving trips will take you to breathtakingly beautiful dive sites that only a few lucky ones can see first-hand. It is unlike anything else.
Bear in mind: There are special rules and regulations for liveaboard diving in Indonesia. In your briefing, you'll discuss the best sustainable dive practices to protect the delicate marine habitat.
Just because it's a diving boat, it doesn't mean that you can't take breaks and lounge on the sundeck. Scuba diving liveaboard vacations are also an opportunity to share travel stories with other diving enthusiasts and pick up some precious diving tips and recommendations.
