Our “Komodo Liveaboard Diving Cruise on the Adelaar has to be the finest way to travel to Komodo. Our signature round trip cruises depart every other Monday from Bali, and travel to Komodo with a return to Bali. We pride ourselves in being the experts of Komodo Liveaboard diving, as we have been sailing this unique maritime route for over two decades.
Your adventure starts in Bali, a bustling hub of tourist activities. From Bali we sail away from the tourist radar, cross the Lombok straits and travel East, until all that is seen are the remote uninhabited islands of the Komodo Archipelago.
Divers from around the globe have been joining us on intimate journeys aboard the Adelaar, to sample world class diving in Bali, Moyo, Satonda, Sangeang and the famous Komodo National Park. Novice and seasoned divers, as well as snorkelers, are equally awed by the beauty and diversity of this area.
You’ll be urged by our expert guides to plunge into some of the richest and most diverse waters in South East Asia. Whether you are a muck diving enthusiast, or prefer large pelagic species, Adelaar’s Komodo Liveaboard diving cruise will make all efforts to exceed your expectations. However varied your dive experience, our full service dive center and team will be ready to meet your needs, to ensure your Komodo diving experience is personally tailored and one to remember.

This has to be what ultimate bliss feels like…
If you are a snorkeler or just interested in unique cultural excursions, then rest assured that Indonesia has an amazing array to offer in terms of culture and land excursions. The islands between Bali and Komodo are sprinkled with tribes and languages so diverse, that it is deemed a sociologist’s dream.
