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. On the top deck is a large open sundeck with comfortable mattresses, perfect for snoozing in-between dives or star-gazing in the evening.
The Sokaraja is an excellent option for a fantastic, budget-friendly cruise in Komodo. Book online today to reserve your space.

Great experience on Sokaraja
Had a great experience on Sokaraja. The dive instructors are friendly and incredibly professional. Each dive had a detailed dive briefing and they took js to varied sites for some amazing dives. The boat itself is comfortable with everything you would need. The crew on the boat were unbelievably friendly and helpful, with the cook continuously cooking up great meals. Overall would definitely recommend this live aboard.

We will be back!
You can't really be brief, but these 5 days and 4 nights on the Sokaraja dive boat were the best days of my life.The crew is fantastic, helpful, kind and competent.No matter what you had, wishes and comments would be respected.The food is outstanding!? Something for everyone! Whether vegan, vegetarian, or not. Everything tasted fresh and delicious.The dive guides were also very knowledgeable, friendly and funny. You really felt at home in the 5 days.The equipment is well maintained and always in tact, you couldn't complain about anything.In the various dive sites, one would always be taken care of and reefs and fish would be respected and not endangered.The boat is in top condition, toilets are clean and sleeping facilities, such as chill areas, are available.You could write a lot more, but see for yourself!!

Amazing diving, DMs, boat, and crew
We had an amazing 4 days on the Sokaraja. Everything from the dive masters, to the crew, to the food was perfect. Our DM Luca (and shoutout to Erik!) kept us safe in the strongest of currents and we had amazing dives every time. The crew and chef kept us constantly fed with great food and the best sambal ever. The dive briefings were so fun - 100% recommend!
