Eliya

We ask all of our guests to meet in our Scuba Junkie Office 8.15-8.30 am. Once everyone is present, we will take you on board KLM Eliya. KLM Eliya will depart Labuan Bajo Harbour at 9.30 am. Our first stop will be the dive site of Sebayur - Think crystal clear water, white sandy bottoms, sloping coral reefs. This dive site is the perfect intro to what Komodo has to offer! As no trip is complete without a visit to see the Komodo Dragons, after breakfast, we will take you to Loh Buaya Ranger Station on Rinca Island. The time on the island takes in the education centre, a short trek to look for the Komodo Dragons, along with some beautiful viewpoints. The last dive of the day will be a sunset/n

Our first full day of diving will be the centre of the National Park, where we will aim to head to the pinnacle site of Pengah, and a great opportunity for reef sharks, eagle rays, coral cat sharks, large whip corals, and stunning soft and hard corals. After this, KLM Eliya will sail more centrally to the dive sites of Mawan, Siaba Kecil (aka “Superman drift”!!), and Siaba Besar. Mawan is very well known for the mantas that like to frequent here, with many cleaning stations and beautiful coral plateaus, this dive site has something for everyone! Siaba Kecil is one of the fastest dives in the National Park and is famous for the Superman-like feeling it gives our divers! The evening will be sp

Another day spent in the centre of the National Park will take you to Police Corner - a stunning reef with a large overhang. Expect brightly colored corals, schooling fusiliers, and hunting white tips on the occasional devil ray! From here, we will head to the world-famous pinnacle that is Batu Bolong. This pinnacle rises from the depths of the seabed and is a haven for marine life. From here we will head to Tatawa Besar - a beautiful sloping reef with the chance to see schools of fusiliers, mantas flying by, black & white tip reef sharks, and much more! A sunset or a night dive will be our last dive of the day in one of the sheltered bays where we will aim to spend the night.

5: We will set sail for the Northern dive sites, stopping off at Batu Bolong to dive the other side of this incredible pinnacle. Batu Bolong is a strong favorite among our guests! From here, we will head to Manta Point, which is the longest dive in the National Park. The drift dive will be spent looking for mantas that stop at the various cleaning stations along the way. From here, we will head to the Northern sites. Diving in Komodo is heavily influenced by the currents, so over days 4 & 5, we will dive the sites of Crystal Rock, Castle Rock, Lighthouse, and Golden Passage! These sites are famous for strong currents, schooling fish, hunting white tip & black tip reef sharks, and so much mor

On our final day onboard KLM ELiya, we will complete 2 dives. One dive in the North of the National Park and then we will head back to Central to Tatawa Kecil - a stunning dive site with sloping soft coral reefs, rocky topography, and stunning hard coral gardens. From here we will sail back to the harbour of Labuan Bajo and plan to disembark around 14.00. The last dive of the trip will be on the final day. Divers are recommended to wait for 24 hours before flying after the last dive. (*) The itinerary description is provided by the boat operator.
