Komodo diving and adventure tour is the best way to discover the amazing under water life in Komodo National Park. The regions with many un-inhabited islands are the home for wild animals. The underwater life around the national park offers great opportunities for divers to have a memorable adventure tour. With Komodo diving program, your dreams to discover West Flores.

Diving in Komodo National Park area is one of the best diving experiences in the world, you only have to open any of the international diving and snorkeling magazines to uncover the wonderment that lies under the water all over this protected area. As The Komodo National Park lies right on the Wallace Line that runs through Indonesia, it is possible to view a huge array of life in this, one of the most biodiversity areas in the entire world where all of these Asian and Australasian animals and plants thrive on the intense tropical sunlight and free flowing nutrients that constantly run through the area in the life bringing currents.

Komodo diving program will cover your travel interests to see the beauty of under water world. Recommended Komodo diving takes from 1 day tour up to 6 days live board diving cruises. The Komodo tour program can be started from Labuan Bajo where you take a boat trip or live board cruises to the islands around Komodo National Park. Komodo diving is one of the most recommended adventure tours in West Flores. There are more than hundreds diving sites that can be explored.

Reefs teeming with tropical fish of all shapes sizes and colors are located all around the area and it is very common to see the larger creatures such as manta rays and sharks if you are diving in the specific places. There are some of the world’s largest fans and huge coral formations on wall and wrecks and you will have chance to undertake three dives a day to view these wonderful and beautiful dives. As one of the richest diving environments in the world Indonesia is actually home to more species of fish then anywhere else in the world. In the middle of the passage between Sumba and Flores there are one of the richest currents running through the area and a huge tidal flow. This does mean that many of the dive sites in the Komodo National Park are only suited to experienced divers but there is still plenty to see if you are a beginner and there is no better place to learn and build up to the main diving sites. There are also many times when the tidal currents are weaker and then divers of all abilities can experience almost all of the diving sites in the area.

There is also diversity from the north to south axis where in he north there are the classic clear tropical waters with great visibility and pristine hard corals where as in the south there are far more soft corals and invertebrates in the cooler richer waters. With more than 50 main diving sites and hundreds of other equally as good sites as well as more and more sites being found all of the time and water temperatures that range between 24-26 degrees in the north and slightly cooler in the south where all that is necessary is a thin short wetsuit. Visibility can be up to 40 meters and conditions are usually favorable all your around although the north of the park does experience the north western monsoon and encounter wind and rain in January and February but this is incidentally the best time of the year for visibility in the south of Komodo National Park. There are many operators and it is easy to get recommendations for diving in Komodo although most of the operators are very good and it is obvious to distinguish between the two.
