The Ikan Biru can house up to 8 guests. The boat has two guest bathrooms with hot freshwater showers below deck. The onboard chef serves freshly baked bread every morning, which he makes in the fully stocked kitchen. Upon request, the Ikan Biru can cater to specific dietary requests. The spacious upper deck is the perfect place to relax between dives in the daytime. In the evening, it is set up as a comfortable dining area. At night, the comfortable mattresses and bedding make it the perfect spot for guests to keep cool while sleeping under the stars, dreaming of all the incredible wildlife they’ve seen.
Thanks to its one-of-a-kind “hop-on, hop-off” concept, you can board the Ikan Biru for 3-12 nights, allowing you to explore the region as you see fit. Two dayboats are ready to take you to land when you wish to disembark. The Ikan Biru only accepts Advanced Open Water divers, or you can get your AOW certification and other diving courses on board.

Experience Incroyable
The organization (of the equipment in Labuan Bajo on our return) is well established. We found the crew very professional and very smiling. We are delighted with the services offered on the boat. The food is excellent, varied. The dive instructors (Sigfrid and Joe) are very professional and the sites chosen are exceptional. Overall, we are very happy with our stay on Ikan Biru.

Solid liveaboard experience. Would recommend.
Overall, I recommend the Ikan Biru liveaboard. The boat was well-suited to having 8 guests on board. I was always comfortable and well fed. The diving was excellent and the dive masters ensured everybody's safety was taken seriously. Great value for the money.

Best days ever! Must do!
Our stay on Ikan Biru was some of the best things we have ever experienced! We loved every second of it. From how extremely well looked after we got from the whole crew to the amazing dives we were able to experience with our guides! We absolutely loved how the boat offered everything we needed and still we lived a very simple, slowing down life. It was the perfect start to our honeymoon. We have been relaxed ever since we set foot on our beloved boat and wish for everybody to experience it themself!

Super team, super souvenirs
Ilan Biru is not a luxurious boat but it has all the necessary comforts. The Deck is very spacious. Sleeping on the deck of the boat was great and very comfortable. The team was very attentive to prepare great meals, always offering coffee, tea, cakes, fruits, preparing beds...The dive masters are at the top, thank you Harold and Afen for all these dives and memories on board!

Trip of a lifetime!
Wow what an incredible trip!!! Where do I begin?! Harold and Joe were incredible dive guides, Harold has a keen eye for finding sea life and Joe is the master of finding mantas! The boat crew were attentive and made sure we had a good experience. The food was exceptional! The chef must be one of the best, I promise you will not go hungry! The variety of dive sites and marine life was some of the best I’ve seen. Can’t recommend Ikan Biru highly enough, thank you for a wonderful experience!

Great liveaboard option when you're on a budget
I had an absolutely amazing experience on Ikan Biru. All the staff was exceptionally friendly and helpful. The boat is a basic budget option, nothing fancy, but it was still a totally nice ship, well maintained and comfy. Of course you don't get a/c and much privacy, but it's not geared towards that crowd. We had plenty of space on the ship, the food was great and the diving was a lot of fun. I just wished that our DM pointed out a little more stuff, especially of the smaller kind. I'm able to see the sharks, rays and turtles myself, but I don't know where all the macro is, if I'm not familiar with the dive sites. Other than that it was a perfect trip. I can totally recommend to book with these guys!
