Aboard the Indonesian Aggressor, your eight-day and seven-night itinerary will encompass the whole of the Komodo National Park.
Embarking and disembarking in Labuan Bajo, the diving is focused on diving South Komodo National Park where we will cover Padar Island, Langkoi, Horseshoe Bay, South West Flores, Mota Island and the Mola Straits (The channel between Rinca Island and Flores). The Komodo National Park is a World Heritage-listed National Park, which means there is an abundance of life above and below.
On this trip you can see Manta Rays in Makassar Reef and in Manta Alley, beautiful soft corals, schooling fish like jacks, Eagle Rays, Nurse Sharks, White Tip Sharks and of course where this is a diverse and beautiful range of soft corals, good macro life (muck diving).
Of course when visiting the Komodo National Park one must see the Komodo Dragon. Not only excellent diving and excursions are on offer, but you are also aboard the Aggressor vessel which is well known for its excellent service and comfort as well - a trip to remember.
