Above and beyond - best value and experience
Fabulous trip, superior to another similar priced liveaboard in Komodo NP. Excellent experience all around, including a sunset trek to a spectacular viewpoint and the classic visit to the dragons. All the big name dive sites and kind and helpful staff. I fell sick with sinus issues and was given the best care, substituting dives for snorkeling.

Amazing value for money
had a great few days aboard Sokaraja. The dive guides and boat crew were brilliant: professional and friendly. The boat itself is pretty spacious with plenty of chill out areas which makes it good value for money. And of course the diving is world class and I enjoyed the mixture of land based activities on the itinerary. Thank you Sokaraja!

Always recommendable
Seeing the huge diversity under water in Komodo with Mantas, so many turtles and sharks, fish schools and so on. The life on board was really relaxed, the crew was cool and we were taken care of very well.

World class diving made possible by superb dive guides know the sites - and importantly the tides!
So much diversity on dives - some were wild current with pelagics, mantas and sharks, some were as coral rich and diverse as Raja Ampat, each dive had amazing features… octopus play, cuttlefish mating, sharks hunting prey… weeks worth of dive experiences in 5 days. The Sokaraja has a great crew and wonderful spirit.

First liveaboard experience was very positive
night (and day) dives. Komodo island dragon search (and found 3 - even during mating season). The beauty and tranquility of where we moored (most nights - but can't control other boats' use of generators)
- Recommended for
- How easy it was to do multiple dives in a day. Very cool places visited. The owner and crew were fantastic

Sokaraja puts together a great itinerary and knows the sites so well which is exactly what you want in these conditions. You and your loved ones will be in safe hands in the Komodo Islands and you’ll be diving with a great group which the team attracts. Many repeat customers know where to go for a great time at a great value for advanced diving.
