Stable boat, comfortable and clean!
This is my second liveaboard, condition of the boat was excellent. This boat was very stable, honestly didn't feel it rock that much even tho the waves and currents were insane in komodo. didn't have sea legs after getting of the boat at all! Rooms were pretty, clean and spacious. There's house keeping everyday and a balcony to hang your wet clothes in the room. Toilets work well, shower has intermittent water supply, but not too bad, essentially if you waited 5mins after the first person showers, there's a good flow. Food was good, crew was friendly and helpful at all times, even when some guests were annoying to them haha. loadsa singing and dancing. Activities were packed, you'll never be bored!

An unforgettable experience on the Komodo Dragon!
I had a wonderful time on a dive safari aboard the beautiful, comfortable, and cozy Komodo Dragon. This was only my second liveaboard, and as a relatively inexperienced diver traveling with a group of female friends, I was naturally worried that our skills might not be enough for Komodo’s waters. However, the crew and dive guides went above and beyond to make us feel safe while ensuring we enjoyed the incredible marine life. Our guide, Fandi, was very attentive; he showed us so many interesting creatures and paid close attention to our gear. All our dives—even those with currents—were comfortable and smooth. We were lucky enough to see mantas at almost every site. The coral gardens are breathtaking; I’ve never seen such a variety of healthy, pristine corals, even in the Maldives or the Red Sea. The boat itself is spacious and clean. The cabins have everything you need and are cleaned daily—and I have to say, the shampoo and conditioner provided were the best I’ve ever used! The chefs also deserve a special mention. Every day we enjoyed a fresh, delicious à la carte menu; we definitely never went hungry! On our first day, Jello gave a very thorough briefing covering everything from boat layout and daily routines to emergency procedures and safety. It was the most detailed briefing I’ve ever heard. We were quite lucky to have only five people on board. Our boat was one of the first boats allowed out of port after a month-long break due to bad weather, so we had almost every dive site to ourselves—an incredible stroke of luck since famous spots are usually crowded. The weather was perfect for all five days: not a single cloud or drop of rain. A huge thank you to the team. I highly recommend this trip to anyone looking for great diving in a fun, safe, and pleasant atmosphere!

Phenomenal liveaboard experience
Incredible all around experience. The setup is a luxurious, recently renovated traditional vessel with a separate dive boat plus a dingy. This was very nice when preparing for and returning from dives, and snorkelers could take the dingy to good spots without compromising dive site selection; the con was that currents in the south prevented us from going to pink beach and southern dive sites because the separate dive boat couldn’t handle it. The crew service was incredible and the food was very good. We were all too tired to drink much but the wine on the final night was pretty good. Dive experience was great, including site selection, rentals and briefings; however, I am pretty risk averse but I felt our dive guide was excessively conservative, as my team ended most dives with 70+ bar each and we never hit 1 hour, and it was difficult due to language barrier to understand why we were cutting dives short. There were a few other communication issues as well that were each too minor to elaborate here. Overall would definitely recommend. For context if you are debating price vs value and comfort vs diving tradeoffs, this is AOW only and we all felt appropriately challenged and all the passengers were working professionals in their 30s and up.

Perfect combination of diving, land excursions and heartwarming hospitality
Did the 7N/8D around Komodo, and had the best time ever. Good communication and helpful tips before, the most heartwarming welcome on the boat, spacious rooms with comfortable beds, and a crew that never stopped helping any way they could. The food was amazing, and there was lots of it. The days were spent diving in underwater paradise, encountering mantas, sharks, turtles, fish in every colour, and even a dugong. The detailed briefings before every dive always made me feel safe and well prepared. The rented equipment was excellent, and made diving hassle-free. I also appreciated the land excursions to see the dragons, Pink Beach and some sunset hikes. My divemaster Ray was excellent at spotting everything from mantas to tiny shrimps - he was clear on instructions and made sure we all had safe and fun dives! And then the cruise director - Jello. The trip definitely would not have been the same without him! Again, safety always being the main focus - but also the one singing us songs, making us laugh, telling stories, and just being the heart and soul of Komodo Sea Dragon. Loved every minute of this trip!

The trip didn’t have any downsides for me
Komodo Sea Dragon is a fantastic liveaboard. First of all with the amazing guides you will visit the best of the best dive sites in Komodo national park. And also enjoy hiking on the best islands/mountains the national park has to offer. Everyday you will also eat delicious meals and deserts. They even have a coffee machine on board. I stayed in the cheapest cabin yet the experience was amazing, it honestly looks better than the photos. Modern bathroom. The friendly crew will also make sure that you fully enjoy the trip.

Everything about Sea Dragon and diving in Komodo was fantastic 👌
I loved everything about ths trip. Meeting the Komodo Dragons was exciting. The amazing view after walking up the mountain for the sunset. The crew outnumbered the guests, they were all fantastic and always happy. Great diving and I met some lovely people on the trip too

Top-notch comfort with world class dives
One thing that stood out is how the Komodo ship has an adjacent dive boat to better access remote dive sites as well as having an overall luxurious experience. The staff are friendly, extremely experienced, and know how to maximize the dive experience for the passengers on board. I highly recommend this for any diver, new or highly experienced, looking to see healthy reefs, rich biodiversity, and scenic island stops.

Awesome for snorkelers and divers both
The entire trip was absolutely superb. My wife loved the diving and i loved the snorkeling. We both saw some amazing sights, 4 baby sharks resting/hiding in a small cave soon to grow up and take their place as apex reef predators, turtles which lingered and were not afraid of snorkelers, and the highlight for both of us being the manta rays. Seeing a huge adult manta ray glide past on my right not 10 metres away at snorkeling height was a Moment of Awe. The crew on the boat were all superb, addressing queries quickly as well as anticipating our needs. And safety always first.
