If you have only one chance to dive the best sites in Indonesia, this is the tour for you. This epic 27 day dive safari is the most comprehensive tour we’ve ever put together for Indonesia as it includes stops in Alor, Komodo, Wakatobi, Bali, and Raja Ampat’s Misool. Not only will you be immersed in the best reefs and surrounded by throngs of fish, but you’ll also be hosted by the countries finest resorts who will look after your every need on land and in the water.
Alor will be the first stop on this near month long journey. In this remote region of eastern Indonesia we’ll be hosted by one of the only resorts in the area, Alami Alor. We charter the entire resort which will give us unfettered access to the resort and all that they offer, including their amazing house reef and all the various dive sites nearby. While Alor is still a bit of a secret to a lot of the world, we’ve become very fond of the diving here as the reefs remain in near pristine condition. Besides the vibrant coral reefs bursting with life, large cetaceans like blue whales and super pods of dolphins are not uncommon as we move between the sites.
Komodo is one of the premier dive regions of Indonesia and we’ll be based at the beautiful Komodo Resort. This resort is situated on its own private island complete with hiking trails, a spa, gym, decadent meals and an outstanding house reef. Better yet, the resort is on the door steps to the national parks boundary where we will encounter turtles, reef sharks, cephalopods, and almost certainly giant manta rays! Oh yes, and the famous Komodo Dragons!
Wakatobi situated at the geographical centre of the Coral Triangle, the most marine bio-diverse environment in the world. Wakatobi in particular is recognized as having the highest number of coral and fish species found anywhere on the planet and has a truly amazing house reef, which one can easily explore from the resort’s pier. The islands and reefs in the Wakatobi National Park have been preserved from the negative effects of large-scale tourism as the area is only accessible by a private charter flight and liveaboard boats.
Bali is well known around the world as being the ‘paradise island,’ and if you haven’t already experienced it, we’ll show you why. Outside of the transit stops, we will be spending three nights in the arts and cultural hub of Bali- Ubud. Here we intend to give you a taste of the amazing culture, food, the stunning landscapes and iconic temples, and of course the exquisite resorts that Bali has become famous for.
Misool is the southern most set of islands in Raja Ampat, and is truly a paradise brimming with pristine coral reefs and more exotic marine species than you possibly count in a single trip. Misool Resort is the only resort in this entire largely- uninhabited area, and yet the comfort and style of this resort is second to none. Because of the amazing conservation efforts taken on by the resort, the surrounding waters are densely populated with sharks, rays, and swarms of fish big and small.
