Makassar Reef Manta Point
A shallow drift over rubble and coral where reef mantas visit the cleaning stations.
Certified & beginner · Komodo
Dive the Komodo current
Batu Bolong on slack water, Castle Rock in the north, Manta Alley in the south. The sites are fixed; the timing is everything.
The sites
Five dives worth the crossing
Which of these you get depends on the tide and the month, not on the price you paid.
Makassar Reef 
Slack water only Batu Bolong
A small pinnacle wrapped in some of the healthiest coral in the park. Dived on slack water, never otherwise.
North Castle & Crystal Rock
Northern seamounts known for schooling fish, trevally and reef sharks in current.
Build-up Tatawa Besar & Kecil
Colourful drift dives with turtles — where you build confidence before the seamounts.
South Komodo Manta Alley
A second manta aggregation in cooler, nutrient-rich water. Usually an overnight itinerary.

Before you ask
Four quick answers
Do I need to be certified to join?
No. A Discover Scuba dive takes a complete beginner down supervised, and snorkellers share the same boat and the same sites.
When is the best time to dive Komodo?
April to October for the calmest water and 18–30 m visibility. Manta sightings run high most of the year; the south is cooler and richer.
How many dives fit in one day charter?
Two to three, depending on the sites and the surface interval. A liveaboard fits three to four a day.
Is gear rental included or extra?
Tanks, weights and fills are included. Full rental equipment is available on request and quoted separately.
