Capoeng

Capoeng is a traditional Indonesian liveaboard built for divers who want an authentic, intimate way to explore Komodo National Park. Simple and full of character, it keeps groups small — a maximum of eight guests — for a relaxed, social atmosphere where the focus stays on genuine experiences and great diving.

Diving and beyond

Operating mainly on short itineraries, Capoeng heads to some of Komodo's most iconic dive sites, including Crystal Rock, Castle Rock, Batu Bolong and Manta Point, along with night dives and visits to remote islands. Trips often pair diving with land excursions, from meeting the Komodo dragons on Rinca Island to scenic hikes with panoramic views.

Accommodation is simple yet comfortable, with a mix of shared bunk-bed cabins, a twin cabin and a dorm-style option, some with air conditioning. Between dives, guests unwind on the open deck or in shaded areas and enjoy freshly prepared meals. English and Indonesian are spoken onboard, and a battery charging station keeps gear ready. Capoeng suits divers who value community, exploration and immersion over luxury.
