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.

The best thing I've ever done, don't waste money on a boat twice as expensive
The crew are amazing, so helpful, brilliant cook and good coffee. Our guides were so knowledgeable and able to cater to everyone's ability and deliver the best diving I've ever experienced. If your apprehensive about the sleeping on deck don't be it's such a good vibe, (it rained and was fine) we had people from 20-60+ all enjoyed every moment. Wake up and watch dolphins passing by with your coffee dive one of the best sites in your life before breakfast. Eat amazing food and dive some more .Then swim under the milky way with bioluminescence all around you. What more do you want?

Most amazing liveboard!
We had the most amazing liveaboard on the Ikan Biru!The crew was amazing. Josh made us fresh en delicious food en snack everyday. De crew was very friendly and wanted to help us with everything. The instructors (shout-out to Joe and Harold!_ made sure we were well prepared before every dive. The dive sites were stunning and they even took us to see the Komodo Dragons in the National Park. I also dit the Advanced Open Water Course on board, which was done very throughly, but in a fun way. Everyone on the boat wanted to stay and/or would come back whenever we can

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!

Better diving in Komodo doesn't get better than this
The staff was super friendly, the dive sites were great, you can meet new people super easily. Sleeping on the deck is perfect, because a fresh wind cools down nicely.Overall, highly recommended🤙

An breathtaking experience on board Ikan Biru! You won't regret the trip!
I had a truly awesome time on the Ilan Biru liveaboard. Our dive instructors (Harold and Joe were amazing! The diving itself was incredible, we saw manta rays, tons of sharks, eels, turtles, mantis shrimp and plenty of other cool stuff. The boat itself is cosy by very comfortable and the food was amazing. The cost of the boat was very good value for what we received
