The Komodo Sea Dragon is a 38mtr/125ft long liveaboard in Indonesia. It is accompanied by a smaller, 18mtr/59ft long boat designed to keep all the dive gear and the compressor, as well as take the divers directly to the best sites. Aboard the main vessel, guest cabins are located on the upper and main decks, with plenty of natural light and breathtaking ocean views.

The Komodo Sea Dragon’s 7 days/6 nights itinerary takes guests to some of the best spots in Indonesia, where guests have the chance to see amazing marine life and the legendary Komodo dragon. The adventure starts on Padar Island, for diving and snorkeling around the beautiful reefs. From there, the boat will move on to South Komodo, where guests will explore more of the amazing underwater world. The last stop on the itinerary is Komodo Island, home to the famous Komodo dragons. Here, guests will have the chance to see these impressive creatures up close.

The trip didn’t have any downsides for me
Komodo Sea Dragon is a fantastic liveaboard. First of all with the amazing guides you will visit the best of the best dive sites in Komodo national park. And also enjoy hiking on the best islands/mountains the national park has to offer. Everyday you will also eat delicious meals and deserts. They even have a coffee machine on board. I stayed in the cheapest cabin yet the experience was amazing, it honestly looks better than the photos. Modern bathroom. The friendly crew will also make sure that you fully enjoy the trip.

Stable boat, comfortable and clean!
This is my second liveaboard, condition of the boat was excellent. This boat was very stable, honestly didn't feel it rock that much even tho the waves and currents were insane in komodo. didn't have sea legs after getting of the boat at all! Rooms were pretty, clean and spacious. There's house keeping everyday and a balcony to hang your wet clothes in the room. Toilets work well, shower has intermittent water supply, but not too bad, essentially if you waited 5mins after the first person showers, there's a good flow. Food was good, crew was friendly and helpful at all times, even when some guests were annoying to them haha. loadsa singing and dancing. Activities were packed, you'll never be bored!

The sea dragon sets the bar by which all future live aboard will be judged. The cabins were great, as were the crew. The food was the best I have had on a live aboard. I don’t think that we saw anything exception diving from the crews perspective, but it is still the most beautiful coral I have seen with lots of big fish and of course mantas.

My first liveaboard. I came with 20 logged dives which was the bare minimum to join the trip. So I was concerned that I may cause inconvenience to any other guests on the boat. Jello, the dive master who was leading the group that I am, did a wonderful job making sure that I am safe and enjoying the life under water on every single dive. (Thank you so much, Jello) Besides the dives, the whole crew were more than what I could hope for - Caring, kind, lively. Always welcoming you when you return from divings. My room was always kept clean, the food was really nice ( I have dietary restrictions and I still felt really accommodated.) Each moment on Komodo Sea Dragon was beautiful and unforgettable.

Amazing crew; you won't regret this liveaboard
Caveat: First liveaboard, no comparison points for this experience. Cruise director did an amazing job of ensuring we had the most optimized itinerary and the best chances to experience the most iconic dive sites at Komodo National Park. I appreciated that the crew is 100% Indonesian and everyone was extremely warm and welcoming. They often played live music for our benefit that I think was a very unique experience that made me feel like I was in an island paradise (which I was!) Food was good but a little bit repetitive -- understandable as we were on a liveaboard Cabins were brightly lit and of a good size. Some of the floors of the common areas became dirty / uncomfortable to walk barefoot on in the last couple of days of the trip, but overall the boat was clean and cozy. The size of the liveaboard (12 guests) was also a good size; great opportunity to get to know everyone. Lots of additional fees at the end of the trip, but I think that's more the fault of liveaboard . com than Komodo Sea Dragon. Highly recommend cruise director Jello and his crew!

The best liveaboard I have ever been on!
The diving is was beautiful, the food was absolutely amazing. The crew were just the best. Real luxury! Always offered tea or coffee, even between dives. Someone always opening doors and helping you with whatever you needed. I will definitely book this boat again next time I come to Komodo. If you want a real luxury dive experience, look no where else. If Jello and his team are on board, you are going to have the best diving you can get in Indonesia.

The crew were just amazing. The dive guides were some of the most experienced I have ever met, with over 20 years experience between them (Jello, Engel and Arjun). The safety and the diving were top notch, before you realised you needed help, someone was there already sorting you out!

Wonderful experience with excellent crew
It was a wonderful trip, the ship is very spacious with nice and comfy ambience, the crew were wonderful and took great care of us. The food offered a nice variety of local and international dishes. Diving took place from the seperate dive boat which makes it extremely convenient just keeping all gear available there. The dive guide and crew had outstanding experience, knew what to do and we always felt comfortable. Detailled dive briefings were held so we were aware of what to expect, especially for more challenging sites. Changing wheather was considered and plans adapted always with focus on ensuring a great experience for the passengers. Overall diving was outstanding with our guide pointing out plenty of things to see, no matter if tiny critter of the manta right behind you :) Also the excursions to the islands to see the Komodo Dragons and enjoy the views were great! The overall experience was superb and we will definitely come back for more!

Just a fantastic trip. The location is amazing. The sea life and macro is stunning. The Komodo dragons and shore trips were wonderful. The knowledge and experience of the dive guides was impressive. Our guide Benny was so patient and could find the coolest macro life. Other groups had the same experience with Jello and Elfin. But what stands out the most is the warmth, kindness and joy in the crew. From the galley staff to the boat crew to the dive staff - they made the experience special. A heartfelt thank you to Jello, Benny, Allan, Bonny, the chef, Captain Aziz and the entire crew.

Perfect Liveaboard
Best Liveaboard, period. The food was incredible with many options for fish, meats, vegetarian options, deserts, always delicious and available multiple times per day. The boat itself was great and the rooms are very spacious and cleaned daily. The DM's were great. Ray, Fandi and Jello always made sure we had detailed briefings before each dive and stayed close during changing and challenging currents. They were great at spotting very small, hard to find things (Pygmy Seahorse, Cuddlefish, Rhinopia, Nudibranch's, etc). With a 4 to 1 diver to DM ratio, the diving was very personalized. The diving was unbelievable and the sites were choosen perfectly based on time of day, tides, currents, etc. The donni boat (Putra) was great because we had plenty of space to gear up, unlike a small cramped dingi, and a full size sturdy ladder for easy exits. I'm telling you, the entire trip was flawless, great food, great staff (extremely attentive), great diving, great DM's, great rooms, cant imagine anything negative to say. Even the Nitrox tanks were perfect on every single dive with zero deviation on mixtures. If you're considering a Komodo Liveaboard, I would strongly encourage you to book with Komodo Sea Dragon. You will LOVE the entire experience, from beginning to end, perfect execution.
