Exploring Ambon, Banda, Forgotten Islands, Komodo and Raja Ampat, the spacious Blue Manta Explorer is fully equipped to take you to some of the most beautiful, exotic and remote diving destinations in Indonesia. The large steel hull vessel can accommodate up to 22 passengers in 14 beautiful, fully ensuite cabins.

Your Liveaboard diving adventure in Indonesia will take you throughout the famous Coral Triangle where diving opportunities are endless. Possessing the world’s highest marine biodiversity, it’s a lush mecca. From the rich plankton waters of the Komodo Islands and beautiful and remote mushroom-shaped islands of Raja Ampat, Indonesia attracts life found nowhere else on earth. Over 3,000 fish species and 600 coral species call the region home. Diver’s can explore thriving coral reefs, walls, slopes, caves, canyons, seamounts, muck dives, underwater volcanic mountains, steep walls and trenches, wrecks, and distinctive signature sites recognized around the globe. Underwater opportunities here are endless!

Many of Indonesia’s regions are remote and exotic, only accessible by liveaboard. Off-the-beaten-track and away from the crowds, liveaboard guests will discover dive sites that very few other divers will get a chance to explore. Fewer divers and traffic also means more possible ‘big fish’ sightings throughout the region. Multiple itineraries are available, and depending on the season, divers will have the opportunity to see large aggregations of Manta Rays, whale sharks, and dolphins. You can also find Hammerhead hot spots here, where at certain times of the year schools of more than 200 Hammerheads have been witnessed.

Diving itineraries in Indonesia include Raja Ampat in Irian Jaya (West Papua), the Banda Islands and Sulawesi, all excellent destinations for a scuba adventure holiday. Our liveaboard cruises take you further afield to such magical places as Komodo and the Banda Sea.

Komodo is an island famed throughout the world for its legendary dragons, and all liveaboard trips include going ashore to see these incredible creatures in their natural habitat. But it’s not all about monitor lizards. Diving around Komodo means world-class reefs full of color and life with pinnacles and walls, manta rays and maybe even dolphins and dugongs!

The Banda Islands are fast becoming known as one the world finest diving destinations since a trip here means you can expect, not only huge variety and numbers of pelagics and reef fish, but also vibrant healthy reefs with immense hard corals, sea fans, sponges and the critters of Ambon.
