Amazing diving experience on Mermaid 1
The dive sites were beautiful with healthy coral and reef. In south Komodo, we had a chance to witness 20 odd mantas swimmers above us. I stayed in the single cabin and it was comfortable and clean.

Mermaid I solid dive Liveaboard to go with!
Verry clean boat! Had a conscientious trip leader who always coordinated with other boats dive schedule at sites. Definitely appreciated the long 70+ min dive times. Schedule had only one night dive but would be neat to see coral spawning. very clean boat conscientious trip leader coordination to avoid other dive boats at sites appreciated long 70+ min dive times. Only one night dive but would have been neat to see coral spawning. Smaller dive deck, but split groups to prepare, four guests to a guide. Food variety better than most liveaboards, had starlink limit to 3 gb great! Banda fort visit was cool.

Highly recommended Komodo trip in June-July
I did a "Bali-Komodo-Bali" liveaboard with Mermaid I from 23rd June to 2nd July and it was great. The staff looks after you with maximum care: they provide fresh towels after every dive, they offer drinks after every dive, they clean your suit after every dive, they measure the Nitrox for you, they clean the rooms every day, they serve you in the restaurant. The boat is kept nice and clean, the food is good quality and quantity. In terms of dives: we saw the whales sharks in the Saleh Bay, mantas in South Komodo, some reef sharks, one eagle ray and plenty of beautiful corals. There are a lot of dives dedicated to "macro" marine life and be ready to have fun with some drift dives also. In summary: Komodo will offer literally a bit of everything that a diver can wish.

A great Raja Ampat trip
We've done both Komodo (2019) and Raja Ampat (2025) on the Mermaid I and we've enjoyed both trips very much! Super easy logistics, towels and drinks after each dive (and hot drinks after each night dive!). Long 70 minute dives (60 for night dives) with 4 divers per guide. A plus that they now have Starlink internet also!
- Recommended for
- The guided diving. The very friendly crew. Good & varied food.
