I can't imagine it getting any better! The entire trip was amazing from start to finish. Yani's food was amazing, the boat is super comfortable and spacious. The dives led by Vovo were all spectacular, especially the night dive at Torpedo Point.”

Ecopro Duyung Baru Liveaboard Review - Expert Guide to Choosing Your Liveaboard

Russell Bowyer here. I've written this Ecopro Duyung Baru Liveaboard review to help you choose the right liveaboard with confidence. As a qualified diving instructor and Advanced BSAC Diver with 500+ dives worldwide, I've helped countless divers pick their perfect liveaboard - whether it's your first time liveaboard or you're an experienced diver seeking your next adventure.

Read more about Russell's diving experience

My diving experience spans cold-water UK drysuit dives, warm coral reefs in the Caribbean, the Red Sea, the Great Barrier Reef, and South Africa. As a former BSAC Diving Officer and diving instructor, I've taught many people to dive and taken a lot of the divers I taught on their first dive. I also used to organise and run dive trips in the UK, with one of my favourites being expeditions to the Farne Islands to dive with the seals. I've logged every type of dive: decompression stop deep dives, wreck dives, shark dives, night dives, drift dives, and everything in between. This hands-on experience means I know exactly what makes a great liveaboard experience, having dived from liveaboards myself and loved it. This is why I came up with the SDE Liveaboard Rating* to help you choose the best liveaboard for you.

SDE Liveaboard Rating – Underwater Photographer Features for the Ecopro Duyung Baru Liveaboard

My score of the Ecopro Duyung Baru liveaboard is 4/5 on the SDE Underwater Photographer Rating, as it has 4 of the 5 key photographer facilities (see below).

The Ecopro Duyung Baru liveaboard includes a dedicated camera room so you have a safe, dry area to build and service your underwater camera rig between dives. In addition, it has a dedicated camera station close to the dive deck, which lets you gear up quickly, check your housing and swap batteries or memory cards between dives.

What’s more, it offers a separate rinse tank for underwater cameras, which is crucial for protecting expensive camera equipment from scratches and damage. Also a dedicated camera tank avoids any risks that can arise from sharing space with general diving gear, such as regulators, wetsuits, and heavy fins to avoid contamitation from sand, salt, debris and any chemicals.

You’ll also find it provides dedicated charging stations for cameras, strobes, torches and laptops so your batteries are always topped up and ready for your next dive.

Customer review from Liveaboard.com

Highly recommended in Komodo. The crew met with us in the marina. From then on we were treated like royalties. The service was very good throughout the whole experience. Delicious food was prepared and nicely served for each meal. The cabin was spotless and cleaned several times a day. We have been diving quite a lot, the dive guide picked this up and even made the check dive interesting with showing small critters on the reef. The dive plan was always shared with us to make sure input from us was considered. We wish we could have stayed longer and would definitely consider doing another trip with this boat and crew.”

Recommended for: Small groups, friendly staff, great dive guide.
