Highlights
Bajak is a newly renovated boat that brings forth a pirate-like atmosphere while maintaining modern-day comforts for 14 guests. The living space consists of 4 air-conditioned cabins: 1 master cabin with a double bed and an en-suite bathroom, and 3 shared cabins with 4 bunk beds and 2 shared bathrooms. Made mostly from ironwood and teakwood salvaged from decommissioned boats, the Bajak operates as a liveaboard boat in the beautiful setting of the Komodo National Park and offers access to one of the richest marine environments in the world, including stunning coral reefs, seagrass beds, seamounts, pinnacles, dramatic walls, overhangs, semi-enclosed bays, and Komodo Dragons.
The exterior features a spacious, shaded deck ideal for dive preparation, as well as an unshaded rooftop equipped with comfortable bean bags and sun mattresses, perfect for tanning and relaxation. The dining table is set right in the open galley. Additionally, there is a furnished undercover space primed for relaxing and keeping cool.
The itineraries can be set to meet everyone’s picture of a perfect holiday. Complementary to diving are surfing, sailing, snorkeling, and stand-up paddleboarding. Guided walks on the local islands are also possible, allowing one to see the notorious Komodo dragon. Komodo offers some of the best diving in the world, with dive sites such as Manta Point, Batu Balong, and Batu Tiga. The reserve is teeming with diversity. Dugongs, manta rays, white-tip reef sharks, and hawksbill turtles are just a few residents. There is also the option to do your advanced diving course on-site.

I will do it again in the future
It was a fantastic experience. 14 people is ideal for solo travellers. The staff were super friendly, they took us to the best spots and they made everything so much fun! The atmosphere is ideal, you can socialise but you can also find quiet spots on the boat. Also, the boat is bigger than what it seems online.

Incredible value, fab diving, helpful crew, lovely boat, tasty food....
This trip surpassed my expectations in every way. I was a little worried to book it as it was such a good price, but I trusted the reviews and I am so beyond pleased that I did. The boat is lovely, it felt like home from the moment we stepped aboard. It is very cute and cosy, but also didn't feel at all cramped, even though my trip was full. There were plenty of places to chill out and either chat, read or just look out to sea and admire the beautiful scenery. The bunk bed was super comfy and felt like I had plenty of room. The diving in Komodo was amazing, I did Raja Ampat last year and would say these dives were more fun and more diverse (maybe slightly less pretty coral formations) The Manta action was out of this world and my dive guide, Robbie, was fab. In fact all the guides were absolutely great. The food was the best I have had on a liveaboard, catering really well to veggies and vegans. All the food was tasty and plentiful. I really cannot say enough good things about this trip and fully intend to come back one day and do it all again!

Diving a lot at a reasonable price
I was able to enjoy a lot of diving casually. There were some points where the current was quite good, there were leisurely points, and there were also places where the water temperature was about 23 degrees Celsius.

A great journey through the beautiful Komodo
The dives through an incredible number of fish and the long observation of the manta rays were fantastic. The shore excursions were a perfect complement and showcased the beauty of Komodo. The crew always tried to give everyone the best possible experience. They all do a great job.

Intimacy and cute
I recently joined a liveaboard trip in Komodo with Bajak, and honestly it became one of my favorite dive trips so far. If you’re looking for a warm, authentic liveaboard experience rather than a luxury cruise, Bajak is a perfect choice.

Great dive spots and fantastic crew!
I had a great time on the Bajak liveaboard with the Scuba Republic crew! The dives were amazing - we saw manta on three different dives, and the marine life and reefs were some of the best I've seen, with really good visibility. The dive guides were fantastic - they made sure we had a lot of fun, whilst also checking in to ensure we were confident on some of the more challenging dives. Thank you to our dive guide Yunus and the full team on Bajak - I'd definitely recommend this trip for anyone wanting to explore Komodo!

This was one of the best trips I’ve ever done and I didn’t expect to love it so much
So amazing! I would recommend Bajak to anyone and loved the dive sites, the enthusiasm and professionalism of the crew. The briefings they gave were great and I felt safe and informed. The itinerary was organized and well explained. And the food was the best food during our entire time in Indonesia
