Coralia Liveaboard Review: Comfort and Adventure in Raja Ampat and Komodo, with Room for Enhanced Safety Measures
The Coralia liveaboard is a very pretty vessel that offers a comfortable experience for divers in Raja Ampat and Komodo. The crew is friendly and hardworking, ensuring that the boat is spotless and every aspect of your stay is well taken care of. Diving equipment was all set up for us, and the only thing we had to do was put on our wetsuits. I liked that they gave a presentation before each dive to inform us about the likely marine life we would encounter. Areas for Improvement: Medical Supplies and Safety* Raja Ampat is an extremely remote location with very limited access to proper medical facilities. Divers often face common issues like ear infections, which can be challenging to treat without proper medication and may ruin an otherwise beautiful trip. It would be advisable for Coralia to inform guests about these limitations and recommend bringing personal medications on board. This proactive approach would enhance the overall safety and well-being of guests.

Raja Ampat Dream
Being welcomed back after every dive with hot tea and a hot or cold towel depending on the weather was phenomenal. The crew took care of every aspect of our dive gear and were constantly helping and friendly. Boat was comfortable and had great AC and hot water.

Staff professional and provide full attention to guests to ensure their comfort and enjoyment.
It is hard to beat diving in beautiful Raja Ampat made even better with the Coralia. The boat may look "antique" from the outside, but it's beautiful throughout and well set up for diving. We appreciated the low divers/guide ratio and diving in uncrowded areas. The crew took care of all of our diving needs, including setting up and washing/storing our equipment, including cameras and wetsuits. Would do another trip with the Coralia!

An incredible trip with incredible people on an incredible boat
The diving and food and boat were all amazing and above expectations. But the real charm was the people running the operation Desi and Beat were so warm and knowledgeable. Our dive guide Billy was hilariously fun and an expert in what he does. Anto and Juna would always be there to give us our coffee and meals catered to our dietary needs without even asking. And so much more! There were so many small surprises and fun adventures that we did not expect, and part of me doesn’t want to list them here because it’s better to experience the pure joy for the first time yourself. This boat and crew were so awesome we booked another trip before we even stepped onto the dock! We can’t wait to come back to the Coralia, which we were made to feel is our second home. That’s something we have never experienced ever before on any vacation and we will always be etc ally grateful for the memories! Of course, the diving was top notch too!

The Coralia is run by a very friendly, knowledgable, and detail oriented crew that goes out of their way to ensure your holiday is divine.
This rather large Reef Manta swam slowly and closely to our group - quite unusual and surprising behavior - until we spotted fishing line wrapping around its head, embedded in its mouth and likely hindering its ability to eat or breathe. The dive masters immediately sprung to action with knives and line cutters. The manta did a pass, then turned on its back, belly up, to surrender itself to a group of unknown scuba 🤿 diving humans. It needed help, came to us, and trusted us. We couldn’t let it down. Upon being freed from the line, it shot off and away…but less than a minute later, it came back, slowly and deliberately, and swam to and near (talking 1-3 feet!) to give what we could only surmise was thanks and appreciation. Its intelligence and its eyes said it all - indescribable what it was like to see and experience this ❤️

pretty boat that is well appointed, but with some issues
We got to see Octopuses mating, mantas, and beautiful reefs, though in the future I'm going to make sure all trips I book go to Misool, since this one was too short to make it down. The boat is fancy nice, but it has some issues. Our bathroom had a persistent septic smell, and when we had our first rain the boat leaked a LOT, though thankfully not over our bed (I'm told it's normal for ironwood boats when it rains for the first time in a long while, so maybe they couldn't do anything about it...) They didn't have all the rental equipment in my size that they confirmed they'd have for me, which was super frustrating, but they arranged to get it eventually. Bed was nice and soft. The meat and seafood were consistently overcooked... I wanted to like the food because the presentation and service were excellent, but the food was ultimately mediocre. Also, the dining room was filled with smoke from the kitchen.
