Highlights
Barefoot luxury is the theme behind Mikumba Dua (of lost paradise charters) liveaboard Indonesia, having undergone an extensive renovation giving a contemporary twist to this traditional wooden boutique style phinisi. Mikumba Dua boasts the largest outdoor space found on any vessel in her class, spanning over 4 decks, allowing guests to indulge in alfresco dining under the stars while sipping away at their favorite drink or perhaps getting involved in some sunrise/sunset yoga or just lounging around on beanbags with a book. The main hub of the boat is the beautiful indoor salon, which also offers dining, a cinema room, a library, board games, or simply space for relaxation. There are 2 Master cabins on the upper deck, both en-suite and with their own private balcony, with a further 3 double/twin cabins on the lower deck sharing 2 bathrooms. All cabins are spacious and individually designed, embracing traditional local materials and fabrics.
Dining generally takes place on the top deck while taking in incredible vistas; our legendary local chef will provide a selection of authentic dishes prepared daily using the freshest locally sourced ingredients and cooked with dedication and love. The Ethos onboard Mikumba Dua is to seek adventure while getting you away from the crowds and giving you world-class diving and snorkeling. Visit secret beaches and lagoons and encounter breathtaking views from jungle-covered hilltops, all of which make for a truly magical experience, “the stuff of dreams.”
The enchanting and magnificent Raja Ampat, one of the last frontiers on Earth, is the ultimate tropical paradise. Commonly regarded as the most biodiverse marine ecosystem on our planet and ultimately some of the greatest diving and snorkeling in the world, as beautiful above the surface as below, it is “truly Heaven on Earth.”
The ambiance aboard Mikumba Dua reflects the feeling that guests are extended family and perfectly combines the balance of adventure and the feeling of home. Mikumba Dua is also available for private hire; the date of the charter, length of trip, locations, and activities can all be tailored to your needs.

A fantastic boat, amazing crew and incredible dive sites. I can't fault it!
Myself and my boyfriend had a fantastic trip onboard Mikumba Dua in December around Komodo National Park. The itinery was perfect, with a wide range of dive sites, and the added bonus of the trips onto the islands to see the dragons was brilliant. We loved that we also had the opportunity to snorkel, paddle board and kayak during breaks between diving. The boat itself was very well maintained, clean and a good layout. We had one of the double cabins which was really lovely. The food was great and there was a wide range available for all tastes and diets. Dive guides were brilliant fun and very professional and great at pointing things out to us. Couldn't fault it!

One of our best liveaboard trips
We really enjoyed our time on the Mikumba Dua. Because we were a small group, it felt more like a family (some of the captains family were on board for the trip!). The crew and the captain were really friendly and knowledgeable about the dive sites. The food and service was great. The dive masters respected your diving experience and treated you accordingly. Fantastic trip.

Absolutely Fabulous
Mikumba Dua was one of the best liveaboards I’ve ever had the pleasure of experiencing. The entire crew was absolutely fantastic and made me feel welcome and safe. They always seemed ready to laugh and smile and made the trip really fun, from meals to karaoke to tubing behind the dingy. The dive masters were extremely professional and made each dive fun and safe despite some gnarly currents - they were excellent at spotting wildlife both big and small. The food was absolutely top notch and I also enjoyed all of the land excursions in between dives to explore the islands. 10/10 would recommend!

A dream come true!
A really friendly boat! Everything was great! Wonderful dives, all the staff guys helpful and smiling. Nothing is left to chance, everything is perfectly organized, always on time with breefing, diving and all the activities that are included in this fantastic trip. Lots of compliments also to the guys in the kitchen, we ate really well, fresh food, excellent and well cooked, one day even the eggplant parmigiana which was better than the one I prepare at home! The boat is wonderful, the spaces are well distributed and there are these cushions that envelop you as you look at the horizon and listen to the sound of the sea... it really was a dream and I'm grateful to have chosen Mikumba, I had very high expectations, and the reality was much better than I had imagined! Thank you and all of you and my travel companions. I'll take you to the ❤️

First but not last liveaboard
The Mikumba Dua is run by an extremely friendly guy who always has time for your questions and always helps with your requests. Jem leads a crew that reflects these traits and consistently helped us eat, learn and escorted us through our dives while having a lot of fun. The Mikumba Dua has a maximum capacity of 10 so you will really feel the hospitality and get to know everyone with ease. I dont know what's stopping you but if the dates are right then you should really book this boat, we'll never forget our 1st liveaboard thanks to Jem and his team.

Komodo diving at its best
Mikumba made diving Komodo a highlight of our Indonesian trip! Starting with the diving, Komodo offers world class dive sites without having to travel hours by boat. It was amazing. Mikumba has an exceptional boat. It offers comfortable living quarters, space to hang out outside and a roomy dive area for equipment and people. The staff are amazing. Starting with the boat crew who always have a smile on their face and are always willing to help. The kitchen staff are amazing. Delicious food every meal, thoughtful snacks and small touches throughout the week. Lastly the dive guides are great. Very friendly, safety orientated and are excellent at finding amazing underwater creatures. We very much enjoyed our trip to Komodo. Thanks Mikumba.
