Highlights
Join the Sokaraja phinisi for a fantastic budget dive liveaboard trip in Komodo, Indonesia. Itineraries are 3 to 5 days long, with 2-4 daily dives available. While exploring the Komodo National Park, guests can dive with giant manta rays, reef sharks, and turtles and see cool critters such as flamboyant cuttlefish, seahorses, and frogfish on a macro night dive. Besides diving, there is the chance to visit the flying foxes, trek with Komodo Dragons on Rinca, and sunset hikes on Gili Lawa Darat.
Topside, the Sokaraja phinisi has accommodations to suit every budget. There is a dorm room with 6 single bunks; for those who want extra privacy, there are 2 private double-bed cabins. All guests share two toilets and 3 showers with running freshwater, and basic toiletries are provided. Freshly prepared Indonesian cuisine is served buffet-style in the open-air dining area, which offers stunning views of the dramatic Indonesian landscapes.

Unforgettable Trip!
I had an incredible time on this Liveaboard! The crew were amazing and so much fun! Thanks to Luca, Fandee and everyone else that helped make this a great experience! The dives were fantastic, well organized and I always felt very safe. The boat was a great place to chill between dives, the extra activities well paced and the food was delicious. I really loved the intimate feeling of a small group and we all had a blast. I can’t wait to come back and do it again!

Highly recommended
It would be great to see reef manta for sure. However, the main highlights of this trip was team. they are super friendly and really try to help us out on anything. I am planning to make this liveaboard trip as annual thing with sokaraja. Cheers and see you around

Absolutely fantastic!
Boat with 2 private cabins (we stayed in one) and 6 bunk beds. No A/C, but not really needed. Staff super friendly, food was fantastic. Diveguides and divesites great mix with driftdives and walldives. Felt safe at all times. Super nice sundeck and places to hang out in both sun and shade. Easy booking. Would go again any time!

Terrific even as snorkerlers
Brought my 9 year old kid, he had a great time. Both of us were snorkelers but enjoyed the trip/ camaraderie. We were assigned our own snorkel guide, Eric and he was terrific at spotting dugong, manta ray, moray eel, etc. Equipment for us was great. Food was good and plentiful. Yetno, Suril worked their butts off not only as dive guides but also in engaging the customers on the boat. Really memorable time for myself and my son.

Always recommendable
Seeing the huge diversity under water in Komodo with Mantas, so many turtles and sharks, fish schools and so on. The life on board was really relaxed, the crew was cool and we were taken care of very well.

Excellent experience!!
The team aboard the boat are extremely good. Very professional, safe and know the dives sites well. Luca the owner who was my instructor/dive guide was fantastic and has decades of experience along with his dive team and experienced boat crew. Also a big shout out to the chef who managed to feed us really well and keep the food very interesting and super tasty! Also a big thank you to the boys who made things so much easier with their help. There was 10 guests and 11 staff which makes running the boat a smooth operation. The dive equipment is professional and well looked after to a high standard. They took us to some beautiful spots to rest and relax after doves, the views are breathtaking. I would 100% go with Sokaraja again next time I do a live aboard purely for safety and the dive knowledge the team have. Thanks again guys and take care!

4 days of absolute dream
We've seen it all... repeatedly!Mantas, turtles, sharks, seahorse, corals,... nice excursions too. Perfect rhythm... 3 dives a day is enough. A few dives with quite a bit of current... which justify the advanced level with a little experience. Fantastic guide and team... Safety, freedom, professionalism, fun... The boss is great. Nothing but happiness. The value for money is incredible.
