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.

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?

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!

SPECTACULAR
We had the most amazing time aboard the Ikan Biru!!! The dives were breathtaking, with a perfect mix of relaxing and adventurous dives, we were given star treatment the whole time. Josh made sure we were never hungry with endless mouth watering food after every single dive! Everything was clean, we didn’t even have to lift a finger. And hot water showers made us feel like we were living in true luxury! Massive thank you to our fabulous guide Pau who had a great eye for macro, and so much knowledge on marine life! Also Chris our cruise director that knew Komodo like the back of his hand! All the staff kept the trip fun, safe and unforgettable and we will definitely be back!

Awesome crew, unbelievable dives, dream come true
Diving in Komodo National Park has been one of my bucket list dive locations ever since I got certified 3 years ago. 140 dives later I was able to check this one off the list and boy it did not disappoint! The boat is a very simple but typical boat for the region. The upper deck lounge area was transformed into the sleeping area at night, which was an amazing experience to sleep out underneath the stars in the open sea. All of the dives sites were incredible! Healthy reefs, full of color, diversity and amazing fish life. The highlight for all of us was surely the Manta sighting, specifically being able to watch one get cleaned for over 10 minutes. Gracefully hovering over the cleaning station and tolerating our presence just a few meters away. The crew was absolutely amazing. They ensured we were always feed throughout the day with freshly cook meals 3 times per day with different snacks in between. The divemasters were true professionals as well. Passionate about their job and their love for diving could not be missed. I am so thankful for everyone involved and am happy to say that I have made so great friends in this trip. Thank you Blue Marlin Komodo!

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.
