Customer review from Liveaboard.com
“Great liveaboard in Komodo that wont bust the budget. Time aboard the Sokaraja was fantastic! The boat and amenities are good for the price point and it never felt too crowded with a group of 9 divers. The food was always great and enjoyed every meal/snack that we had. The dives were incredible (it is Komodo afterall) and the crew did their due diligenece to schedule the dive times to account for current and crowds. There are 3 dives/day but small additional excursions that allow you to have a good land-based experience in Komodo as well. Really enjoyed the morning seeing the dragons at Rinca, hanging out at the sandbar, and the sunset hike on Gili Lawa! Cannot say enough about the crew! The dive guides have an infectious energy in and out of the water and the "dry crew" are always willing to help and are really thoughtful in operations to make the journey as comfortable as possible (e.g. the little things like running the compressor during the dives when we are underwater so that it is not disruptive while on deck).”
Recommended for: Phenomenal crew. Great Diving. Fun additional non-diving activities.
