ITINERARY INFORMATION

Detailed information about the itinerary

  • Komodo Itinerary Overview

Itinerary Overview

The Komodo National Park is a vast area with more many islands and plenty of hidden bays and dive sites. We have several routes but dont bound ourselves to theses. We have been diving and cruising in this area for 10 years and would like to offer you.

One day one particular dive site might not be good but it was written on an itinerary so we like to go to the next.

The experienced European Cruise Director, Divemasters and Captain will need to adjust and draw a itinerary subject to our guests experience, water and weather conditions.

A Typical Day Aboard Moana

First breakfast - first dive - second breakfast - second dive - lunch - third dive - afternoon snack - fourth dive (dusk / night) - dinner

There is plenty of time to relax, too, or instead of diving you might want to go to the beach. Please note that the arrival and departure days look different obviously.

On Day 1 we normally are able to do 2 dives and on departure day there is no diving and you normally disembark after a big breakfast. The day before the last day has also normally only 2 dives due to our 24h-no-dive-before-flight-safety-policy.

Komodo Dive Sites

Komodo National Park offers an enormous amount of dive sites. We would like to present to you a description of some of the best known signature dive sites of this area. We hope we can give you a taste of what it is to dive one of the worlds best diving area and most diverse marine eco systems.
  • Castle Rock
  • Underwater pinnacle, located in the north of Komodo Island, can have some reef hook currents. Top is at 7m, nicely covered with table corals and small gorgonians, There is a hollow at about 15m where sometimes huge schools of mackerels, doctor fishes and jacks are gather, This underwater pinnacle attracts lots of pelagic fish; grey reef sharks, white tips, huge trevallies and the odd eagle ray passing by. Marine life is great at each depth, but it is at the base of the pinnacle where you will find the sharks cruising around. Experience in drift, reef hock, negative entry recommended.
  • Crystal Rock
  • This dive site lies close to Castle Rock and is a bit easier to find, as the tip of the pinnacle just breaks the surface at low tide. Again can be prone to strong currents, there is an area where you can easily descend and ascend with beautiful staghorn and table corals. Further down around 15 to 20m there is a small valley where a large group of yellow Oriental sweetlips and a pair of barramundi cods reside and then huge gorgonian sea fans around 30m.
  • Shot Gun/Cauldron
  • This passage between Gili Lawa Laut and Gili Lawa Darat on the northern tip of Komodo Island provides one of the most exhilarating and exciting dives in the park. This site takes you through passages, flying over rocky ridges and down into sandy bottom cauldrons with churning waters overhead before exiting from a beautiful reef in a sheltered back eddy to the north. Regular sightings here include Reef Sharks, Giant Trevally, Manta, Turtle, schools of Midnight Snapper and Sweetlips. Best dived on a falling tide this site is not to be missed on any trip to Komodo.
  • Tatawa Besar
  • Starting at the northwestern tip of Tatawa is a good drift dive down the western side in about 15 to 20 meters of water. Fish life is plentiful and an endless field of stunning orange soft corals can be seen. Mantas are often seen in this area also. It is also possible to drift down the north coast of Tatawa from the same entry point.
  • Tatawa Kecil
  • When currents are favourable diving can be good here, the best dives are down the western side of the island where rocks, caves and beautiful coral gardens in the shallows can be found. There is abundant fish life including large groupers, snappers, sweetlips, jacks, sharks and no shortage of anthias.
  • Batu Bolong/Current City
  • This small seamount sits right in the middle between Komodo and Tatawa Islands and therefore gets its fair share of water movement. The top of the rock sticks out of the water and you can either dive the northern or the southern side, depending on the current flow. This is one of the most exciting divesites in the area and once you go down, you are likely to be greeted by vast schools of reef fish, turtles and whitetip reefsharks. Look closely between the corals and rocks and you might find some nudibranches like the beautiful Nembrotha Purpureolineata. This dive site is reserved for experienced divers only. As it is located in the deep channel, this can have quite strong currents.
