Highlights
Bajak is a newly renovated boat that evokes a pirate-like atmosphere while offering modern 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 perfect for relaxing and staying cool.
The itineraries can be set to meet everyone’s picture of a perfect holiday. Complementary to diving are surfing, sailing, and stand-up paddleboarding. Guided walks on the local islands are also possible, offering opportunities to see the 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.

Simple but great
The boat and the facilities are not high-end, for example no Nitrox onboard, which is reflected in the relatively moderate price of the trip. Most customers were young, and the atmosphere on the trip was lively - imagine a nice, floating youth hostel. Food is quite simple, but the cook was brilliant and made really tasty meals. I especially liked his deep fried stuff. We were lucky to have Coco as our dive guide. He was a brilliant instructor for my wife who struggled a bit with buoyancy control.

The best start to 2026
Day 1: Condition adjustment and first encounter with Manta1️⃣ Sebayur Kecil (2★): Check Dive, mainly for weight adjustment, with average coral landscapes.2️⃣ Mawan (5★): A Strong Start to the Gate! Manta Washing Station, witnessing the stunning Manta storm.3️⃣ Night Dive (3★): A more basic night dive for getting a sense of macro. Day 2: Isekai Expedition and the Southern Giant Rock🧗 Padar Island (5★): Wake up at 5:10 AM. From the summit, you can enjoy a godlike view of 'Zelda Island' and encounter a wild deer on the beach.4️⃣ Secret Garden (4★): True to its name, with extremely high coral coverage, a paradise for sea turtles.5️⃣ Three Sisters (4★): Three massive reefs, psychedelic terrain, classic southern line landforms.6️⃣ Loh Sera (4★): Bulk cargo area, stunning vertical rock faces with excellent visibility. Day 3: Miracles, near-death experiences, and peak restoration7️⃣ Colleen's Corner AM (7★): The legendary moment! Once in many years, witnessing a hammerhead shark deserves 7 stars.8️⃣ Manta Alley (4★): The highlight of the South line, Manta holds a meeting (although I initially found them a bit annoying after watching the complete runs).9️⃣ Colleen's Corner PM (1★): Nightmare. Lost contact by the strong stream, self-rescue and rescue, experiencing the thrill of narrowly escaping death, I want to give it a negative star.🔟 Komodo Bay (7★): The most perfect night dive of life. The peak of the clay is a macro distance, with enchanting octopuses and crabs, creating a peaceful beauty, especially after surviving a great disaster, which is very healing. Day 4: Prehistoric Behemoths and the Flow Coaster🦎 Komodo Island (5★): Land cruise, close encounter with the prehistoric giant Komodo dragon, and witnessed Komodo dragons mating.11 Batu Bolong (5★): A world-class dive site, fish soup-level density, and a place bursting with vitality.12 Castle Rock (5★): Top Stream Challenge and Watch Various Shark Storms.13 Shotgun (6★): Dream Release. Flying through the canyon like a roller coaster, Komodo's unique sense of speed—we loved the feeling of being lifted by the currents with weightlessness. Day 5: A Grand Finale14 Crystal Rock (4★): Visibility maxed out, and the soft coral garden is stunning under the sun.15 Lighthouse (4★): The final dive, ending the 15th dive among a dazzling school of fish.

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.

Great trip through Komodo
Great trip on Bajak, great guides making sure diving is safe but if wanted also challenging and catering to all different experience levels. Amazing dive sites. Great food and snacks on the boat and super kind and helpful staff. Absolutely loved the trip and would do it again. Rooms are, as shown in pictures. A bit small but beds are comfortable, AC works well.

Fantastic dive trip
Fantastic trip! Our guide picked the dive sites flawlessly and were beautiful and full of life, not over run with other dive groups. Did not do much other than diving, so may want to pick something else if you want more of a mix of trekking and island hopping. Food and crew were amazing.

Manta paradise in Komodo
Did the 4d/3n Komodo Liveaboard in August 2024. The crew lead by Yunus has a perfect combination of fun and 100% professionalism. We always felt safe. It was a fantastic trip with incredible dive sites and for me personally the best in 28 years diving. Keep the spirit 👍
