Great live aboard on the Sokaraja - I recommend 100%
We spent 4 days and 3 nights aboard the Sokaraja. It was our first diving cruise and we can't recommend it: the boat is perfectly adapted, the whole crew very nice and the program varied. A big thank you to Adrianna, always smiling and listening: we loved diving with you!

Sneak peak into Komodo diving
Very happy with the trip. Was there in december so there were no other boats which was grat. Also Komodo tracking without other groups make it much more enjoyable.

Excellent Time! 🤙🏻
I had an excellent liveaboard experience with the professional team at Sokaraja! Thanks to the team and my guide Matteo for the great experience! 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.
