KidsSea Camp has booked multiple group dive charters on the Arenui in 2023, 2024, 2025, and 2026. We have limited cabins remaining on each charter, so call us for up-to-date information. We do provide optional assistance with round-trip air into Bali; Pre or post-hotel add-ons are available, and we offer complete on-the-ground care if needed. We are ready to meet and greet you and ensure your trip is fully escorted and handheld if you require it. Let us know your desires and needs, and we will be ready to assist.

For our group charters, cabin selection is on a first-come basis. If clients do not specify a cabin, we will assign the cabin within the price range that you have purchased based on what is available at the time of your reservation request.


In Komodo, expect encounters with pelagics, such as manta rays both oceanic and reef, eagle rays, sharks, mola-mola (sunfish), tuna, and even whales. Get your macro lens ready for unusual critters such as ornate ghost pipefish, different kinds of pygmy seahorses, rare clown frogfish, weird and wonderful nudibranchs (if lucky, the ridiculously cute Pikachu nudi), blue-ringed octopus, pipefish, scorpion leaf fish, Coleman shrimp, boxer crabs, zebra crabs.


Fill your memory cards with Humphead parrotfish, napoleon wrasse, juvenile batfish, stonefish, devilfish, seahorses, dragonets, turtles, cuttlefish, banded sea-snakes, snake eels, stargazers, slipper lobsters, fire-urchins and the aptly-named sea apples (a very colorful and round-shaped type of sea-cucumber).


Q: What kind of diving is there in Komodo?

A: The sea around Komodo Island offers vibrant colors and exotic marine life which will enchant divers and snorkelers alike. They will be able to see endless schools of fish in every direction, drawn by the waterways rushing up from deep-sea vents. Below, the seabed is covered with a thick carpet of richly colored corals and marine invertebrates, the ultimate paradise for underwater photographers. Komodo National Park is an important natural refuge and is known worldwide for the overwhelming amount of flawless corals that can be found there, not to mention the mantas, sharks, turtles, dolphins, dugongs, and many other pelagic. Yet it is also home to different kinds of pygmy seahorses, a wide variety of gorgeous nudibranchs, and frogfish. Its sites stretch from the warm waters of the Flores Sea in the north to the chillier waters down south in the Indian Ocean and vary from gentle coral slopes to heart-pounding adrenaline thrill rides. The underwater terrain presents many contrasts as well, with sheer cliff walls, pinnacles, sandy flat bottoms, underwater plateaus, slopes, caves, swim-throughs, and channels, all with different colors, sizes, and types of both hard and soft corals.


Q: What diver certification level is required for joining the Arenui?

A: Everyone is welcome on board, regardless of the level of certification. The forming of dive groups and selecting of sites are determined in accordance with safety, comfort, and diving ability considerations and remain at the discretion of the Cruise Director. Our professional dive crew can lead you to more relaxing sites if you are not too fond of currents for example. Of course, if you want, we can also take you into the heart of the action to experience the full thrill of a site!


Q: What dive equipment do I need?

A: Tanks, weights, and weight belts are provided onboard. Divers will need to bring a BCD, regulator, wetsuit, fins, mask, snorkel, and dive light. We have SMBs available for use.


Q: What can I expect in terms of water temperature and what type of wetsuit do you recommend?

A: This is always a difficult question to answer because people have different sensibilities to temperature. Typically, average temperatures in Raja Ampat range from 25-30C (80-86F) which means that a 3mm wetsuit or even a skinsuit is usually fine. The southern waters of Komodo can be colder, from 20-25C (70-75F); therefore, a 5mm wetsuit with a hood is recommended.


Q: Is there dive equipment available for rent?

A: There is a limited amount of diving equipment for rent so it is important that you notify us in advance if you want to rent equipment. We offer Scubapro BCDs, regulators, and wetsuits. Snorkeling sets with Aqualung fins and a selection of masks and snorkels are available. We have UK C4 eLED dive lights for rent.


Q: Are there any limitations or restrictions on diving?

A: You should respect the standards and stay within the limits of your qualifying certification. All dives should be no-decompression dives. Solo diving is not permitted.


Q: Is enriched air nitrox available?

A: Nitrox fills of up to 32% are available for an additional charge. As we recommend diving with nitrox on all dives, we offer great packages to allow you unlimited nitrox throughout the cruise. Please consult our price list for more details. If you are not yet Nitrox-certified, you can take the course onboard with one of our qualified PADI instructors.


Q: Can I take a specialty course onboard?

A: As well as Enriched Air Nitrox, we offer several dive specialty courses on board. Please let us know beforehand if you are interested in taking one so that we may ensure that the necessary academic material will be made available.


Q: Can I drink alcohol and dive?

A: No. Drinking alcohol and diving is not allowed as this can increase your risk of decompression. You are free to drink alcohol once you have completed your last dive of the day.


Sebayur Island: This island has a white sandy slope that turns into a mini wall. Look for leaf fish, ghost pipefish, and a variety of nudis at the edge of the reef. Various nudibranchs, lionfish, and moray eels make the wall their home. In the shallows, the hard corals are decorated with anthias and we often find large cuttlefish and juvenile bicolor parrotfish. On the night dive look for Spanish dancers, crocodile fish, and bobtail squid.


Tatawa Besar: This is a thrilling drift dive, starting at the north-western tip of Tatawa and continuing down the western side, reaching about 15 to 20 meters of depth. The fish life here is abundant and you will see an endless field of stunning orange soft corals as you glide along. Swim past coral heads inhabited by schools of sweetlips and batfish, and look out for turtles feeding on the reef. Mantas have been encountered here as well.


Tatawa Kecil: The West side of this small rocky outcrop presents a fantastic underwater terrain with enormous slabs of rock that have been worn down to form channels, canyons, caves, and swim-throughs. On the north plateau, crocodile fish lies on the scenic reef among a whole host of reef fish and schooling fusiliers.


Siaba Kecil: Here at Siaba Kecil we have a magnificent formation of hard coral from the shallows of the island to a depth of 20m/60ft. The current running from the south to the north is the best way to dive into this site. During the drift and also at the end of the drift we have a great chance to see green and hawksbill turtles feeding on the formation of hard coral, white tip reef sharks also can be seen here. Reef manta rays can occasionally swim by the coral garden of this site.


Batu Bolong: Underwater this rock is covered in a huge amount of soft and hard corals and full of fish life. In the shallows watch anemone fish and look out for turtles munching on the corals. Giant trevally, white tip reef sharks, snappers, and emperor fish tend to congregate here. This site presents particularly good opportunities for both macro and wide-angle photography.


Batu Tengah: This dive site is located in the middle of the Komodo National Park, 12 nautical miles to the north, and 12 nautical miles to the south. The translation of Batu = Rock, Tengah = Middle. With a slope to the east of the site and a coral garden to the west Batu Tengah is a beautiful site where we often get to see turtles, cuttlefish, and juvenile white tip reef sharks that hide under the table corals among the hard coral garden. Napoleon wrasse and big groups of snapper swimming on the slope with all the colorful decoration of the soft coral make Batu Tengah a high-quality dive site.


Wainilo: This afternoon and night dive is situated off the north of Rinca Island. In the shallows, the hard coral reef is home to many different critters, including juvenile harlequin sweetlips and batfish. Away from the reef, the sandy slope is scattered with pulsing soft corals that hide demon stingers and starry night octopus, plus a moray eel which has not yet been classified by scientists and is only found here in Wainilo.


Day 3 Walk with dragons / Padar Island (2 dives)

Loh Buaya (walk with dragons)

Your day will begin with an exciting visit to Komodo National Park where you will be able to take a stroll with the famous dragon! Take a look at our Komodo Dragon photo album here. As you walk along the paths, also stay on the lookout for deer, wild boar, and birds in addition to the giant lizards. After the walk, we move to Padar Island for two dives.


The water temperature here and in the southern dive sites over the next few days can be a little cooler dropping from the normal 28/29 degrees Celsius (82-84 Fahrenheit) to a possible 20 Celsius (68 Fahrenheit). Also due to the infinite nutrients in the water creating the amazing biodiversity in this area, the visibility can sometimes be a bit greener. Neither one of these factors can spoil the amazing diving to be had in these areas.


After the second dive, we visit one of the most incredible beaches in the Komodo National Park. A short walk brings us to the pink sandy beach. During this walk, we also have the opportunity to see enjoy incredible views of the National Park with the sunset.
