Unforgettable Honeymoon Trip – Expert Crew & Incredible Diving
Unforgettable Honeymoon Trip – Expert Crew & Incredible Diving We spent 4 days and 3 nights on the Nusantara with Mikumba Diving, and it was easily a once-in-a-lifetime experience. Being here for our honeymoon made it special, but the Nusantara staff made it world-class. The Highlights: • The Crew: Truly exceptional. They handle everything—from assembling your gear to helping you with your fins before you jump. You barely have to lift a finger. • The Diving: Our dive masters were experts at navigating the conditions. We had about a 60/40 split of heavy current vs. non-current dives. • Conditions: In early April, visibility ranged from 25m down to 10–15m. The team was great at explaining how the sites and visibility shift (Central vs. North) depending on the season. • Life on Board: The food was awesome with a huge variety. Between dives, the upstairs beanbag area is the ultimate place to relax. • The Bunks: Sleeping quarters can get warm, but there are fans in every bunk and portholes in the top bunks for airflow. We will remember this trip forever—not just because of the beautiful locations, but because of the incredible Nusantara team. If you’re heading to Komodo, this is the way to do it!

An unforgettable experience
It was certainly one of the best experiences ever. We saw documentary places, with thousands of beautiful colorful fish and corals. The food on board was extremely good and varied. The crew made the stay really comfortable and enjoyable. The guides were very prepared, even with the dives in strong currents they made everything clear and incredible. In addition, the group that was created with the travel companions was really a plus!

Amazing trip!
I had an amazing trip on Nusantara! We saw a lot of beautiful dive sites and the crew on board were so kind and helpful. The ratio between diving and free time was perfect. You had time to relax between the dives, but you didn’t get bored. I slept on the top deck and I would 100% recommend that. It wasn’t too hot and there were so much space. It was 4 unforgettable days! I will definitely be diving with Mikumba diving again. Great company!

The crew set a really friendly and warm tone on the boat and were so helpful in every way. The food was excellent and plentiful. We adapted to the weather and currents to ensure we had the best dives possible. I have done 4 liveaboards, and this was my favorite experience yet! I would go back to Mikuma Diving for sure. Special thanks to Salla and Hans!

Best Liveaboard ever
I just loved everything about the trip. I am a solo traveller and this was the best experience because i met so many other solo travellers on that trip. The whole crew, dive masters and other guests were just amazing people. We even had a Dinner back at Labuan Bajo to celebrate the whole trip.

Amazing diving in Komodo
Highly recommend Nunsatara and Mikumba Diving for your diving liveaboard in Komodo. The trip was short which was great as it fit into our travel plans and budget, but it hit all the dive spot highlights and got to do an awesome land tour on Rinca island to see Komodo dragons. The boat staff were AMAZING, food was plentiful and delicious, guides were fantastic, equipment rental was easy and worked well. Would definitely dive with Mikumba team again!

It was our first liveabaord and the first time we were diving in Komodo. We are not experienced divers but we really felt safe and we did enjoy every moment even it was « sportive » dives. The manta dance for almost all our dive was an amazing experience. Also, the shut gun was something aha. We had a nice crew too so it did help for the experience overall!

Fantastic all around!
This was the highlight of my 3 week trip to Indonesia. I went as a solo and got lucky with a great crew of fellow divers from around the world, all younger 20-30s. The boat was really nice and roomy. I slept in the cabin below one night and found it comfortable with lots of room to spread out. The second night I slept up on the deck under the stars which was even better. The crew were super friendly and helpful. And the dive sites - WOW! I am an experienced diver, but this was my first liveaboard. I wouldn’t hesitate to do it again!

Great experience! Will be back for more.
4 days - 12 dives, each dive site was unique and a fabulous experience. Our guides were experienced and knew the sites well. We were briefed clearly pre dive. All the crew were helpful and attentive. The hikes were a welcome change of pace and fun! We had a great group on board that made it even more pleasant. The accomodation was comfortbale although the cabin was warm despite the fans. The food was plentiful and dietary requirements catered for. There were many highlights during the dives, but overall to see the reef so vibrant and healthy every dive site was great, and there were never crowds at sites, it was very well managed.
