Hello all.
We are currently in Sumatra heading east and are planning to do a Komodo liveaboard, for 7-10 days hopefully.
Initial research suggests a lot of boats, many from bali but also from Labuanbajo on Flores.
I guess we are looking for the best compromise, most affordable but comfortable, not too many people, and of course the best dive sites. It seems that water temp varies greatly? and big stuff and certain times of the year. We plan to go in about a months time.
Any good experiences / tips would be greatly appreciated. most dive professionals we have chatted to said we Have to go, I guess most people agree. Also, a list of the MUST do Komodo sites would be great
We will make our budget stretch if it means a good crew and staff and the best dive sites.
We have just spent 4 weeks diving with Lumba Lumba on Pulau Weh, an extraodinary place with great boat diving and a splendid house reef. We had great fun in the currents there so will want to sample more of the same in komodo.
Anyway, enough rambling, any advice on komodo would be great. Add if anyone can confirm rumours we have heard about how good Alor is that would also be appreciated.
many thanks
Gary
