Highlights

  • Small group sizes (4:1)
  • Land visit to Komodo Dragons

Newly built in 2015, the traditional sailing phinisi Cajoma IV offers epic liveaboard dive trips in Komodo from April to December each year. Cruises are 3-nights/4-days long and explore the diverse area of this National Park. The itineraries have been planned with divers' needs in mind, and the maximum number of dives is offered while keeping group sizes small (4:1 ratio). The schedules cover some of Komodo's best dive sites, including Manta Point and Castle Rock, where you can see mantas and sharks, as well as incredible muck dives that reveal amazing critters. Plus, a land visit to see Komodo Dragons and flying foxes, and you have the perfect short Komodo dive trip.

Incredible Experience! Highly Recommend

Diving with Cajoma IV was an incredible experience, through and through. The crew was amazing, the boat was very well maintained, and the dives were fantastic. My friend and I booked the Master Cabin because we wanted to be a bit more comfortable -- not realizing the Master Cabin was a huge room at the back of the boat with our private bathroom and deck! It seemed more fitting for a couple on a honeymoon (they folded our towels into doves in the shape of a heart), but it was awesome nonetheless. There were more crew members than I expected there to be (at least 10) and we had 6 passengers on this trip. The crew members were all extremely friendly and accommodating, always greeting us after our dives, helping us get into our gear, etc. They served breakfast, lunch, and dinner, all delicious and nutritious - the chefs did an amazing job. FYI there is no wifi on the boat. On the last day we also had a group dinner on the top deck that felt really special. We saw so much on the dives, although I will say it was more challenging to dive in Indonesia (this was my first time diving there) as the currents can be very strong. The visibility was not ideal on a couple of the dives, but that is to be expected given the current and did not take away from the overall experience. The dives were pretty structured and we stuck close to the dive masters throughout the entire dive so I never felt lost or unsafe. The star of the dives were the Manta Rays -- we went in November which is Manta season and had multiple opportunities to see them up close. It was a magical experience. We also got to go to the Pink Beach, go on a sunset hike, and visit the village on Komodo Island to see the Komodo dragons which was an unforgettable experience. They planned the itinerary very well. It was well paced and never felt too intense or boring. I can't recommend this liveaboard enough! I would definitely go back and dive with them again.

Amazing liveaboard in Komodo

We had an amazing experience aboard Cajoma IV! The boat was nice and comfortable, the crew was friendly and helpful. We were only 8 divers on board, which made the experience even better. The dive guides were flexible in selecting dive sites and avoiding big crowds. On top, the food was plentiful and delicious. Overall, a great experience in Komodo National Park. Recommended!

Excellent exprience for our first LiveAboard! Would repeat. We saw great coral, many spiecies, despite visibility that was not top due to the weather conditions.

Just an incredible trip

This was the best liveaboard we've ever done. Having only 8 divers on the boat (and one communal dinner table) made it feel like more intimate, but it was still a professional and comfortable operation. The food was delicious, the staff were super friendly and attentive, and the dive guides were outstanding. I legitimately can't think of a single thing I would change and I would recommend this liveaboard to anyone.
