Liveaboard General Information and Overview
Liveaboard dive boats give
you a far wider range of destinations than day trips can offer
since on this type of vessel, and with a few days of time, we
can extend our range to the northwest and south. The diving
quality is decidedly world-class, and people travel from all
over the world to experience it often booking months or years
in advance.
Liveaboard dive boats visit the following locations in
Indonesia:
Trip
length of liveaboards typically range from five-days
up to ten dayssometimes longerand most boats depart
in the afternoon or evening as the distances involved require
overnight travel. This puts you in the water the following morning.
They generally return in the evening or early in the morning,
depending on the boat's preference.

Equipment is not included in
the price of liveaboards as people generally prefer to
use
their own and it would be unfair to make these people pay
for equipment they already have. Computers can often be
rented, but are generally expensive. You might consider
purchasing this piece of
equipment. Also, for the most part, only full-foot fins
are available for rent. Booties and open-heel fins are
not
usually available. Three-mm shorty suits are usually OK
for most of the year, but if you have one, bring a 3-4
mm
full-length wet suit for more comfort, especially for longer
trips.
Water temperatures are 24 to 30º C (78-90ºF). For Komodo
trips, a 5mm wetsuit with a hood at least is required for
the southern areas as water temperatures can drop to 20ºC
(70ºF).
