Great boat, great crew, great experiences - 100% recommendation
The liveaboard with Kira Kira was unforgettable! Starting with the guests and the shared conversations and experiences, to the crew, who were anxious at every second to offer us a great time. Overall, we had a consistently positive atmosphere on board. The boat itself is 1:1 as described. It is very well maintained and maintained. The dive sites, especially around Misol, were great, although the corals around Waigeo are unfortunately severely affected by climate change. Nevertheless, we could admire various shark rays, huge schools of fish and manta rays. We were 8 guests on board, 6 of them Scuba Divers divided into 2 Dive Masters. Yetno and Marci guided us through their underwater home with top equipment and a lot of experience. The tour was rounded off with a joint beach BBQ on the last evening and made the trip an all-round highlight! Highly recommended!

Amazing trip and lovely boat. Excellent crew.
It was an amazing trip. The diving spots are marvelous. Landscape of the place is also breathtaking. The dive guides Yetno and Engel, were always concerned to show us the best places and point us all the fish and amazing creatures underwater. The food on board is amazing. All the crew was very professional and always willing to help us. Can’t wait to come back!!!

Cozy and simple boat that has everything you need.
Kira Kira took us around to their favorite sites including north of Komodo island which was a highlight for a lot of us. No other boats around, great dive diving at Nick's law, epic sunset with an erupting volcano at the horizon and mantas under the boat. Good food, easy going crew and everything you need is there. Lot's of time to take in the scenery between dives from the sundeck while sailing between dive sites. Solar panels on the roof also meant that's a bit more environmentally friendly and quieter without the need for a generator. 10/10 would recommend.

Incredible trip- Banda to Raja Ampat
Fabulous trip and truly amazing diving. Highly recommend Kira Kira and the liquid adventures team. Diving was incredible, equipment was in good condition and the dive guides were very experienced and safe- one per 4 guests. The liveaboard is run by it’s british owner and dive guide with an Indonesian boat crew. As others have mentioned, the boat only accommodates 8 guests so it’s an intimate group which is great. They cater to mixed diver levels and myself as a less experienced diver never felt out of place. The boat is comfortable although if you are seeking luxury like air con and hot showers this is not a boat for you. It’s practical and has a few spaces to get out of the sun- including the bean bag deck. Fresh water showers and 24hr electricity. Crew are great and food excellent- lots of variety, you definitely won’t go hungry. Beers available on board. Definitely recommend- am planning my next trip already!

An amazing experience for a really good price
This was my first liveaboard trip and one of the best trips I've ever done in my life. The guides and the crew really made it special for me. The atmosphere on the boat is so friendly and welcoming, everyone is really nice and you just feel like you're apart of the family for a week. And of course, the diving in Komodo is absolutely amazing.

Epic Adventure in Komodo
Kira Kira just was dry docked renovated in May of 2025. Amazing 20 dives in Komodo mix with a few off shore excursions. The food was amazing. Amazing guest and crew, the budget friendly self-selects great people. But be ready for room- temperature showers and no-ac rooms. They do have small fans installed in the rooms. I had issues with mine. I highly recommend if youre seeking adventure without hotel comfort, and want some really good hearty food.

Great briefing on dive sites and guided dives, felt safe and well looked after
We loved that this was a small group which meant it had some room for flexibility. We all got along well so that made for a fun trip. Alex our dive guide was so amazing with dive briefings and diving. He was also very patient when we all wanted to have a go at the wakeboarding which meant having to drive the boat in the hot sun for 4 hours one afternoon. The boat was basic, but had the necessary things for comfort. The bean bags on the deck was fantastic place to chill out between dives and enjoying sunrise and sunset. Double cabin is lovely on the deck, you get a beautiful breeze, and you can enjoy the view but have to admit a bit annoying with the low ceiling after knocking your head a few times getting in and out. It is not private in that the whole cabin faces the deck where people hang out and also occasionally crew sleeping. They have curtains so its manageable.

EPIC
it‘s really hard to pick out some highlights cause every dive was EPIC! that was the word we used after almost every dive! we came on the boat and wished for finding some cool stuff under water, a nice crew and a comfy bed.. Well, our expectations have been exceeded. Thank you Clare & Fandi soo much for everything. Your experience, your jokes, your smiles, your information & the wonderful drawings of the divesites. ;-) A huge thank you also to the rest of the crew who did there best to make our stay so perfect. And last but not least, the food was amazing! I‘m still impressed how they managed to cook all that yummi food in the kitchen on the boat :-) we'll definitely come back! see you guys in raja ampat :-)

Awesome cruise!
Superb cruise to Rajah Ampat aboard the Kira Kira. Everything was perfect, the proposed itinerary allowed us to discover the best spots in the center and the south (Misool). The extra activities were also very good. Between 2 and 3 dives per day, not too much, not too little. Special mention to the barbecue on the beach to end the stay in style. We appreciated being only 8 divers on the boat, it allowed us to create bonds and the atmosphere on the boat was great. The food was excellent and varied throughout the stay. The cabins and sleeping accommodations are rustic but this did not impact our overall experience. This cruise will remain the best moment of our 2 month trip to India.
