your gateway to underwater magic

WHAT SETS US APART
Legendary Komodo Diving
Plunge into crystal-clear waters teeming with life – Komodo diving is the very definition of bucket list diving. Every dive is a thrill at Komodo National Park’s famed sites: drift alongside manta rays, weave through kaleidoscopic coral gardens, and encounter reef sharks patrolling the currents. It’s a once-in-a-lifetime underwater adventure that leaves even veteran divers awestruck, day after day.
Liveaboard Luxury & Comfort
After hours underwater, comfort isn’t a luxury—it’s essential. Our traditional phinisi was purpose-built for dive travel, with air-conditioned, ensuite cabins for just 12 guests. There’s space to relax, room to breathe, and thoughtful details that make life between dives just as restorative as the dives themselves.
Fine Dining Between Dives
Who says you can’t eat like royalty in the middle of nowhere? On Blue Lotus, every meal is an experience. Start your day with fresh-brewed coffee and a simple, satisfying breakfast—end it with a chef-prepared meal served under a sky full of stars. Our menu fuses Indonesian favorites with international flair, featuring fresh local produce and quality ingredients. Everything’s served family-style, fostering the kind of camaraderie that comes naturally after a good day underwater.
Face-to-Face with Komodo Dragons
No Komodo voyage is complete without meeting its most iconic residents. Between dive days, step ashore for a guided trek to see Komodo dragons in the wild – the last living dragons on Earth. Heart pounding and camera ready, you’ll walk the same sun-baked trails as these prehistoric giants, coming within safe arm’s length of a creature found nowhere else. It’s an unforgettable, only-in-Komodo encounter that truly earns its spot on your bucket list.
Photographer’s Paradise
From vibrant reef scenes to breathtaking island vistas, Komodo is a dream for photographers above and below the water. Capture kaleidoscopic coral reefs swarming with fish, snap images of manta rays gliding overhead, and don’t forget the topside views – think pink-sand beaches, fiery sunsets, and star-studded night skies. Whether you’re an avid underwater photographer or just glued to your smartphone, you’ll find photo opportunities at every turn, ready to make your friends back home jealous.
Good Vibes
Life on board Blue Lotus is easygoing, intimate, and intentionally unhurried. With a maximum of 12 guests, you’ll find space to stretch out, breathe deep, and settle into the rhythm of the sea. Our crew brings the kind of warmth you can’t fake—attentive when needed, invisible when not. Swap dive stories over sunset cocktails, trace constellations from the upper deck, or simply let the quiet in. It’s small-group diving in Komodo at its most personal—uncomplicated, unforgettable, and just the right kind of magic.
