Kararu Dive Voyages regular
route sails from the majestic island of Bali to one of the world’s
most diverse and interesting marine and wildlife parks. The
Komodo National Park is a world heritage site, and is every
bit as amazing as the internationally reknowned Galapagos Islands.
This remote and unchanged part of Indonesia offers unique natural
beauty both above and below the sea. The Park is home to a rare
diversity of animals, including a population of some 5,000 Komodo
Dragons. Our cruises incorporate a half - day walking tour,
led by an experienced Park Ranger, into the forests of Komodo
Island to see the prehistoric dragons in their natural habitat.
The tour winds through jungles that have changed little since
prehistoric times and wildlife abounds; from tiny flying lizards
to the exotic and flightless magapode birds. However, it is
under the water that experts have come to accept that this world
heritage site, the Komodo National Park offers such an inexhaustible
array of marine life that they now believe it one of the centres
of global marine bio-diversity.
Whether you are making your
first trip to the area, are a seasoned traveler to the region
or an avid photographer our guides will lead you to secret places
and reveal the minute details only people intimately familiar
with a destination can. We are dedicated to details, both above
water and below. With over ten year’s experience in these
waters our dive masters bring not just knowledge but an enthusiasm
to their work that is infectious. Divers often encounter a new
species long before anyone knew it was new! Marine biologists
thrive on discovering new species and we dive where they make
their discoveries. Let us take you to one of the frontiers of
marine biology. Tropical diving at it’s very best. If
you are lucky, we may introduce you to or even dive with the
legendary Kararu.
Departing and returning
to Bali our guests have the advantage of tailor making a holiday
package that suits them. Bali’s international airport
allows guests flexibility in their travel arrangements and our
7 and 11 night cruise itineraries are designed to meet the requirements
of a broad range of customers.
Our 7 night unlimited-diving
cruise departs from Bali by express ferry to the small island
of Gili Meno in the famous Gili range of islands on the North
West coast of Lombok. Guests can either opt for a few days before
or after their cruise exploring either Bali or Lombok above
or below water. The cruise sails past some of the most dramatic
volcanic ranges in the world and guests are treated to a feast
of wildlife both above and below the water. Whether it be discovering
new underwater critters in the Komodo National Park, walking
in the forests of Komodo Island to see the Jurassic dragons,
watching a sea eagle swoop from a cliff face to make a catch
or exploring a remote white-sand beach; our cruise promises
a true adventure.
Our 11-night cruise is aimed
at the diver who wants to spend more of their holiday underwater.
The trip starts and ends in Bali and again offers unlimited
daily diving. However, the extended schedule allows you to spend
more time diving the sites of the Komodo National Park and exploring
the unique diversity of wildlife in this region.
Whether opting for a 7 night
or an 11 night cruise, Kararu Dive Voyages takes pride in adding
a new dimension to your diving. Dedicated to showing our guests
the details of this stunning underwater world, Kararu Dive Voyages
guarantees that your holiday will be a mind opening experience.
