GRAND KOMODO TOURS & DIVES
HOW WE GOT STARTED
Grand Komodo began in 1987 as an adventure tour operator. We took travelers off the beaten track throughout
Indonesia, but especially to the islands east of Bali, such as Komodo. A few years later we carried out our first
dive explorations, teaming up with naturalists and photographers such as Dr. Kal Müller, Burt Jones, Maurine
Shimlock, Gerry Allen, Roger Steene, Wally Siagian, Mike Severns and David Pickel. Teamed with them we
discovered some of Komodo’s most exciting dive sites. Since 1990 the company became Grand Komodo Tours
& Dives.
OUR BOATS
Grand Komodo operate 5 + 1 boats built for liveaboard dive trips. Are all clean and cozy, with air conditioned
cabins and ensuite bathroom, a dive platform, gear up stations, a dedicated camera table and rinse tank, and
battery charging stations (both 110V and 220V). Once each diver’s outfit is rigged, the tank stays in place
throughout the trip, being refilled in place.
All the boats are sturdy Bugis-style wooden boats optimized for Indonesia’s waters. They include:
• MV Raja Ampat Explorer, with 7 AC cabins for 14 passengers
• MV TemuKira, with 6 AC cabins for 12
• MV Tarata, with 6 AC cabins for 12
• MV Putri Papua, with 4 AC cabins for 9
• MV NusaTara, with 3 AC cabins for 6
• MV Keti, our “honeymoon boat,”, with 1 AC cabin for a couple or a family with one child.
The boats’ home port locations mainly support Komodo or Raja Ampat trips.
Our itineraries take adventurous divers to locales such as Komodo, Alor, WaKaToBi, Lembeh, Raja Ampat,
Manokwari, Mapia, Triton Bay, Halmahera, and Banda. Many potentially exciting dive sites in Indonesia remain
undiscovered, and Grand Komodo is steadily exploring and opening up new areas.
Grand Komodo’s pioneering efforts pay off for divers today. Our divemasters all grew up here, and nobody
knows the sites, the conditions, and the critters better than they do. We always have a Plan B if a given site isn’t
good that day. Likewise our captains, chase boat drivers, compressor operators, engineers, cooks and cabin
attendants are all local people experienced in our locales, operations and customers. And because we have a
fleet of boats in these waters they’re able to back each other up when need be. In the distant areas where we
operate this provides a level of security few others can offer. Plus, because we’re locally owned and operated,
we have a “home court advantage” in dealing with local authorities and airlines. Our agents greet you and handle
local arrangements for you every step of the way. But when you travel halfway around the world to go diving you
want more than competent service—you want excellence where it counts most: underwater. And even though
our cruises consistently cost less than those of competitors, we never stint on the quality of the diving. On the
boats the accommodations aren’t fancy but they are safe and comfortable. Overall the individualized service of
the competent and friendly local divemasters and staff ensures customized, personal diving experiences not
soon to be forgotten.
Grand Komodo runs scheduled departures throughout the year, and our diverse fleet makes it easy to arrange
a charter to fit your specific needs. We can also provide you with an itinerary combining several consecutive
trips—not a bad idea, considering the distance and cost of getting to Indonesia for most divers.

Raja Ampat Diving Information
Heart of the Coral Triangle
The Essence Of Raja Ampat
Raja Ampat is not really about rare critters or seeing sharks, there are generally not as many of what one would call - classic critters
or big marine life. What is so special about this area is the scenery and in places the abundance of fish life. Dives where you are
inundated with vast schools of fish, on the best of dives fish seem to block out the sun there are so many. Mellow drift dives across the
most beautiful coral slopes and channels, unique dives with heavily undercut mushroom shaped islands with gorgeous coral growth
virtually to the surface. Some of the best coral gardens we have seen are in this area. Taking a live - aboard will allow you to see not
just these great fish dives but also the topside highlights of this area too. The real “essence of Raja Ampat” is the incredible mix
of wonderful topside scenery with great reefs to dive on. Tender boat rides through the most outstanding island scenery of any dive
destination is another highligth of this area.
Birds of Paradise
Taking a short trek through a village and small plantation at Yapmanbaba village on Mansuar island, tekes us under the canopy of
prime forest where we can see these rare and mythical birds. It’s like going to Komodo and not seeing the dragons. The sounds alone
are worth the effort.
Mansuar Area
This is also the place where Dr. Gerald Allen found those 273 different species, see how many you can count! A great range of dive
sites here makes this area stand out as being probably the best dive areas in the whole of Indonesia for fish life. Not just for the species
diversity, as the schooling fish life is also incredible. Most reefs here are vibrant with vast amounts of soft corals covering huge coral
outcrops that in turn are surrounded by thousands of small sweepers. There are critter but not as many as other areas, though for sure
there are some great areas with rare and unusual marine life.
Waigeo (Aljui Bay)
A great area to anchor amongst the many small islands that make this area like a huge maze. There is also a very interesting pearl
farm here. The welcoming staff can show divers some of the processes that go into farming high - end pearls. Dive sites are vary with
brilliantly colorful invertebrate covered walls that are dotted with caverns. These all seem to just fall from the rock faces that rise up
above the water, being topped of with incredible tropical scenery. There are dive sites here that are great critter dives with many great
nudibraches and crustaceans to keep the macro lovers content. This area probably has the best macro site in the northern Raja Ampat
we have came across up to now!
Kawe Area
More small islands here that are home to some incredible dive sites. Amongst these we encounter groups of small islands. Here
pelagic fish and many different schooling fish can be seen. Right on the edge of equator there are more impressive islands, some
looking like Bonsai trees sitting on a rock base. One very small islands, has what can only be described as being one the best
topographical sites in the area. Walls surround most of the island that can easily be circumnavigated on one dive. But there is much
more, a coral covered sea mount with hundreds of schooling fish swimming around it, there are a small plateaus, a small cavern, giant
sea fans and many black coral bushes surrounding a tall pinnacle. Some sites here are very open to the seas and often strong currents,
often swells make safety stops near the reef little awkward.
Wayag Area
This has to be as good as it gets for topside scenery, with lagoons and small mushroom shaped islands, a short trek for those with
enough energy will reveal this island in all its glory. We are now surrounded by that same scenery, lagoons and islands where we dive
are home to great marine life, beautiful reef scenery, some schooling pelagic fish and wicked topographical dive sites. Also this is home
to a hidden blue lagoon with the only way in being from the ocean, it is only us divers that will ever see this sight.
Wai Island Area
Surrounded by white sand beaches and reefs that are home now to plane wrecks as well as great marine life. One plane lays on a
reef slope covered in an array of beautiful soft corals with the slope itself sometimes being a good place to find interesting critters.
Reefs here have been impacted in the past though in places the reef crest is an area where you will want that over - under lens.
With a tropical island backdrop what more could you ask. At times it is possible to see large groups of manta rays cruising by on this
island too.
