Highlights
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. While aboard the Ikan Biru, you can dive three times a day, sometimes more. This lets you visit the best sites, such as Manta Point and The Cauldron.

Wonderful!
The experience on Ikan Biru was wonderful. Amazing crew and diving was beautiful. Unfortunately, we couldn’t go to some of the desired dive sites due to heavy wind conditions but everyone was always aware of our needs and wishes and adapted the plan accordingly. Sleeping on deck was amazing! Thanks to our dive guides AK and Diho!

Was the first time I did a Live aboard trip and it was incredible! Would 11/10 recommend
Was the first time I did a Live aboard trip and it was incredible, loved the variety of dive sites we saw, the crew was super accommodating and attentive and our dive masters were thorough on the briefings and tuned into all the various skill levels of all divers under water.

Amazing experience with fantastic dive guides AK and Afhend, lovely crew, and cozy facilities!
We were so well taken care of by the dive guides AK and Afhend, as well as the crew members! They were not just super knowledgeable and experienced, but also really fun and friendly. The dive sites were gorgeous, briefings were thorough, logistics were well-organised, and food was delicious and abundant. It was comfortable and a cool experience to sleep in the open air. I liked that the group size was capped at 8 guests with an advanced certification required, so relatively small group with similar diving levels. 100% recommend!!

One of the best experiences of my life.
The four days at the Ikan Biru have been spectacular. The crew is very friendly, the food is amazing and there is always a lot prepared, they even welcomed us some day after diving with a delicious freshly made 🥹 brownie. The boat is beautiful and comfortable, you sleep great on the mattresses and the rest area during the day invites you to share experiences with your colleagues, which by the way, I was very lucky, since I was traveling alone and I met a group of wonderful people. We had a great time both during the dives and during the rest of the time. The only downside is that a bath and shower for 8 people may fall short, although you can also use the shower on the deck which is what I did most of the time. Diving equipment in good condition, and our guide AK did a spectacular job. The briefings were very detailed, and during the dive she was super attentive at all times, both to teach us things about the macro, and to advise and help us, since some of us did the Advanced with her. In short, an unforgettable experience that I will surely repeat in a short time.

Best dive trip ever
This is a great crew and really fun boat. The sleeping up on the top deck in the open air is so nice and peaceful, and not stuffy like inside a cabin. The food was spectacular every day, you will not be hungry. And the diving is some of the best I’ve ever done in my life. Incredible, healthy, diverse, and dense reefs with soooo much life. I would love to come back on the boat. One of the best things was AK, the dive supervisor, guide, and leader on the boat. She is an amazing person and made the trip even better. Highly recommend Ikan Biru!
