Christmas Fun in Komodo
It was a great experience. The boat is small and could use some more shade, but the rest was exceptional. We had a medical issue with one guest, but the crew was super helpful and handled the situation great. The dives were awesome, so much life underwater, I loved it.

Excellent affordable liveaboard in Komodo
Would absolutely recommend diving from the Nusantara, I had a great Komodo tour with them. The staff is excellent, taking absolutely everything out of your hands and letting you focus just on the diving. The dive guides were really passionate and showed us a lot of great marine life. They also take good care of safety, i.e. by checking in regularly on me after I had some equalizing problems on one dive. The boat staff kept the boat in impeccably clean condition and made us great food. The liveaboard is quite affordable, because the facilities are not super luxurious: it is basically a floating hostel for divers. If you are looking for more luxury another boat might be better. But for me, I was more than happy with the value for money! The one thing they could improve is a bit more transparency in the pricing upfront. The park fee is quite steep (and it was not communicated clearly that the price of 300k was per day, and not per trip) and there was a fuel surcharge after booking. I would have preferred everything to be included in the price upfront.

Unforgettable Honeymoon Trip – Expert Crew & Incredible Diving
Unforgettable Honeymoon Trip – Expert Crew & Incredible Diving We spent 4 days and 3 nights on the Nusantara with Mikumba Diving, and it was easily a once-in-a-lifetime experience. Being here for our honeymoon made it special, but the Nusantara staff made it world-class. The Highlights: • The Crew: Truly exceptional. They handle everything—from assembling your gear to helping you with your fins before you jump. You barely have to lift a finger. • The Diving: Our dive masters were experts at navigating the conditions. We had about a 60/40 split of heavy current vs. non-current dives. • Conditions: In early April, visibility ranged from 25m down to 10–15m. The team was great at explaining how the sites and visibility shift (Central vs. North) depending on the season. • Life on Board: The food was awesome with a huge variety. Between dives, the upstairs beanbag area is the ultimate place to relax. • The Bunks: Sleeping quarters can get warm, but there are fans in every bunk and portholes in the top bunks for airflow. We will remember this trip forever—not just because of the beautiful locations, but because of the incredible Nusantara team. If you’re heading to Komodo, this is the way to do it!

Amazing Liveaboard on Nusantara
I have been on a 4 days and 3 nights liveaboard with Mikumba diving on the boat Nusantara. This experience was amazing, the dive crew is so nice, very experienced and we had a lot of fun with them. They are very good guides, they perfectly know the sites and will share their knowledges with pleasure. Big shoutout to Gavur who was my guide on this trip. The boat on itself is perfect for four days, with good places to chill, the dorm is very confortable. The boat crew is amazing as well, always here to help you and trying to make your trip as perfect as possible. The food is excellent; very fresh and varied. I highly recommend this liveaboard, I had wonderful time and I would definitely go back with them

An unforgettable experience
It was certainly one of the best experiences ever. We saw documentary places, with thousands of beautiful colorful fish and corals. The food on board was extremely good and varied. The crew made the stay really comfortable and enjoyable. The guides were very prepared, even with the dives in strong currents they made everything clear and incredible. In addition, the group that was created with the travel companions was really a plus!
