Wonderful Komodo liveaboard trip on Eliya
I had a great time on Eliya as a solo traveller, making new friends from around the world. The experienced dive team made sure that everyone had the best dives possible and were always on hand for anything. The vibrancy and abundant life on some of the healthiest reefs I have seen in the past 20 years or so, made the trip unforgettable.

Don't Hesitate - Komodo is Calling!
My daughter and I joined the Eliyah for the Komodo for a 6 day/ 5 night liveaboard in Aug 2025. Prior to joining all the formalities were taken care of. The team clearly communicated all the requirements and for my daughter to complete her AOW onboard. Once onboard, the crew went above and beyond to make sure the trip was memorable. Detailed briefings were made for each dive and prior to the next day so all guests were on the same page. Komodo area has some fast currents and the tour leader (Max) was familiar with all the SOPs to make sure each dive was conducted safely with consideration to all guests abilities. The information was conveyed clearly with detailed hand drawn dive site maps for reference. Food onboard was a good mix for each meal. It is buffet style/ shares dishes between all guests. The boat is well maintained and all areas are kept clean. There is plenty of space for 12 guests to find areas onboard to unwind, stay in the shade and relax. The entire crew was extremely helpful and always willing to go the extra mile, always with a smile. Max joined for all shore excursions despite likely doing them for them 100th time. He was always enthusiastic and positive. With his ability to converse in Bahasa with the crew fluently it was really helpful. As a retired diving instructor I was really impressed by the entire experience onboard Eliyah and cant wait to go back!
