Highlights
The Komodo Sea Dragon is a 38mtr/125ft long liveaboard in Indonesia. It is accompanied by a smaller, 18mtr/59ft long boat designed to keep all the dive gear and the compressor, as well as take the divers directly to the best sites. Aboard the main vessel, guest cabins are located on the upper and main decks, with plenty of natural light and breathtaking ocean views. There are 8 sun loungers on the upper deck, as well as a relaxation area that can be converted into an outdoor dining area. The bar, library and audio/video entertainment are in the air-conditioned lounge, by the outdoor bar, all located on the main deck.
The Komodo Sea Dragon’s 7 days/6 nights itinerary takes guests to some of the best spots in Indonesia, where guests have the chance to see amazing marine life and the legendary Komodo dragon. The adventure starts on Padar Island, for diving and snorkeling around the beautiful reefs. From there, the boat will move on to South Komodo, where guests will explore more of the amazing underwater world. The last stop on the itinerary is Komodo Island, home to the famous Komodo dragons. Here, guests will have the chance to see these impressive creatures up close.

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!

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!

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.

Amazing crew; you won't regret this liveaboard
Caveat: First liveaboard, no comparison points for this experience. Cruise director did an amazing job of ensuring we had the most optimized itinerary and the best chances to experience the most iconic dive sites at Komodo National Park. I appreciated that the crew is 100% Indonesian and everyone was extremely warm and welcoming. They often played live music for our benefit that I think was a very unique experience that made me feel like I was in an island paradise (which I was!) Food was good but a little bit repetitive -- understandable as we were on a liveaboard Cabins were brightly lit and of a good size. Some of the floors of the common areas became dirty / uncomfortable to walk barefoot on in the last couple of days of the trip, but overall the boat was clean and cozy. The size of the liveaboard (12 guests) was also a good size; great opportunity to get to know everyone. Lots of additional fees at the end of the trip, but I think that's more the fault of liveaboard . com than Komodo Sea Dragon. Highly recommend cruise director Jello and his crew!

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.
