Why dive here
With 203+ marine species recorded in the area - including manta rays, mobula rays (devil rays), pygmy seahorses, sea turtles and sperm whales - Komodo National Park offers some of Komodo's richest reef diving. Water ranges 28-30°C, warmest April, May, November.
Komodo National Park diving is an exercise in dynamic currents and big animal encounters. We’ve had dives where the reef drops off into a bustling highway of pelagics: mantas gracefully soaring past, reef sharks patrolling the deeper edges, and schools of fusiliers so thick they almost block out the sun. It's not always a gentle drift, so some experience with current is a definite plus, but the rewards are huge. You'll find yourself amidst walls of soft corals in unbelievable hues, often with smaller critters clinging on, making for a compelling wide-angle and macro experience.
