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.

Best dive experience for solo travelers
This was a fantastic trip and much more enjoyable than the giant lives boards. This is great for solo travelers that don’t need their own room. The food was a nice blend of Indonesia and Western food with a lot of fresh fruit, meat options, and vegetarian options. The dive guides are locals and super friendly and enjoyable as guides and a boat guests. Everyone does a really good job of making your life super easy. Oh, and the dive locations are world class

You can survive without a cabin for 3 nights
I was a bit dubious about not having a cabin but it works quite well for a trip of this duration. The upstairs area is a large living area between 8 people during the day and at night it becomes the bedroom. Because there are no cabins, the generator goes off at 10pm and it's actually so peaceful and quiet on the water with the generator off. I would highly recommend the Ikan Biru to solo travellers and families alike.

Superb experience!
Superb experience! There are no cabins on this boat, everyone sleeps on the upper deck: it's much more comfortable than a cabin and you have air. Everything was well organized and clean. Thank you to the whole team and especially to AK!

Will book this one again in a few years
For me this was a family style, diving punk pirate experience. You get the real stuff for an affordable price, and they know how to plan their dive schedule so you get the most of it. If I can book it again in a couple years, I will.

- Equally: the guides/crew, the food, and of course the dive sites
