•VISIT INDONESIA'S WORLD HERITAGE SITE•

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.
