Amazing trip and lovely boat. Excellent crew.
It was an amazing trip. The diving spots are marvelous. Landscape of the place is also breathtaking. The dive guides Yetno and Engel, were always concerned to show us the best places and point us all the fish and amazing creatures underwater. The food on board is amazing. All the crew was very professional and always willing to help us. Can’t wait to come back!!!

Epic Adventure in Komodo
Kira Kira just was dry docked renovated in May of 2025. Amazing 20 dives in Komodo mix with a few off shore excursions. The food was amazing. Amazing guest and crew, the budget friendly self-selects great people. But be ready for room- temperature showers and no-ac rooms. They do have small fans installed in the rooms. I had issues with mine. I highly recommend if youre seeking adventure without hotel comfort, and want some really good hearty food.

We had a wonderful week in Komodo aboard the Kira Kira.
We loved to wake up every morning in the middle of the sea and go for an early dive to start the day. We spent a lot of time lying on the top deck to relax. The ambience on the boat was really nice and friendly. We highly recommand this cruise!!

- Alex and Clare were the perfect diving instructors. Very careful about security, they have a great knowledge concerning the Komodo marine park, diving spots, currents and will adapt to your diving level. The boat crew is composed with 6 indonesian boys, allo of them very benevolent, smiling and funny! The food was amazing and fits to carnivorus as well as vegetarian and vegan people! No need to specify that the dives were awsome ;)

Wonderful
Wonderful ! 5 guests, 6 crew members plus 2 dive guides. Wow :-) Dive guide selected sites and time, and drop off point for each dive perfectly. This is extremely important for complex drift dives or sites like both of the Rocks (crystal and castle). Discuss and agree your own preferences at the beginning of the safari. For example, if you are a group of experienced divers who prefer excellent drifts, then just ask. Our group was kind of mixed, and we had good drifts, one night dive, and then two dives South. And we were extremely lucky to see Mantas at some unusual places (eg not at the Manta cleaning stations). Plus for two evenings two Mantas were flying around our boat. Yahoo! Of course, I can not guarantee that you will be as lucky as we were :-p

EPIC
it‘s really hard to pick out some highlights cause every dive was EPIC! that was the word we used after almost every dive! we came on the boat and wished for finding some cool stuff under water, a nice crew and a comfy bed.. Well, our expectations have been exceeded. Thank you Clare & Fandi soo much for everything. Your experience, your jokes, your smiles, your information & the wonderful drawings of the divesites. ;-) A huge thank you also to the rest of the crew who did there best to make our stay so perfect. And last but not least, the food was amazing! I‘m still impressed how they managed to cook all that yummi food in the kitchen on the boat :-) we'll definitely come back! see you guys in raja ampat :-)

Great Trip!
We had a great time on the kira. Kira! This was my husband's first live aboard, we were a little concerned that there would be two shared bathrooms and no AC for him. But it actually was not a problem at all. There is a great bean bag area up top with good shade and in the cabin the two little fans and the open hatch overhead really work well at night. I was amazed at all the really good food The cook was able to turn out of that little kitchen, even fresh baked bread. The crew took care of everything with our gear after every dive. Our dive guides Yetno and Akri were fantastic and so knowledgeable. They found the tiniest little things to show us. The boat is so beautiful and well taken care of. It has a very casual feel and more intimate with only eight guests. The dive sites were amazing!

Exceeded All Expectations
I had the pleasure of joining the Kira Kira liveaboard, and I couldn’t be more satisfied with the experience. My expectations were truly exceeded. Not only was the diving outstanding, but also the atmosphere on board was exceptional. Both the fellow guests and the crew made the trip unforgettable. The dive sites we visited were stunning, and the briefings for each dive were clear, professional, and very helpful. The crew created a welcoming and relaxed environment while at the same time ensuring everything was safe and well organized. Overall, I can highly recommend the Kira Kira to anyone looking for a memorable liveaboard adventure – both underwater and above.
