Indonesia sits at the heart of the Coral Triangle and is, by measured biodiversity, the best diving on earth — which makes it one of the highest-value specialist sells an agency can take. As your Indonesien-DMC, we operate the dive product end to end, from day boats to phinisi liveaboards, with the permits and logistics that the remote sites demand.
Where the diving is
- Raja Ampat — the crown jewel: the highest coral and fish diversity on the planet, reached via Sorong by boat, with eco-resorts and liveaboards. Season roughly October–April.
- Komodo — manta points, dramatic currents and the dragons above water, dived from Labuan Bajo day boats or liveaboards.
- Bunaken — North Sulawesi’s wall diving and the muck diving of the Lembeh Strait, easily reached via Manado.
- The Gili Islands — turtles and easy reefs off Lombok, ideal for beginners and courses.
Why diving needs a DMC
- Permits and logistics — marine-park permits, ranger requirements, flights via Sorong/Manado and boat transfers, all handled.
- The right boat — resort diving, day boats or a phinisi liveaboard matched to the group, certification and budget.
- Season and tides — we route by the dive season and the tides that make or break a site.
- Inventory — the best liveaboards and eco-resorts sell out a year ahead; we block early.

FAQ
Where is the best diving in Indonesia? Raja Ampat in West Papua is scientifically the most biodiverse marine area on earth; Komodo, Bunaken/Lembeh and the Gilis are also world-class and easier to reach.
What is a phinisi liveaboard? A phinisi is a traditional Indonesian wooden schooner; a liveaboard charter lets divers sleep aboard and reach remote sites over several days, with cabins, crew and a chef — the signature Indonesian dive experience.
When is the Raja Ampat dive season? Roughly October to April. The best resorts and liveaboards sell out far ahead, so we block inventory a year in advance.
How far ahead must dive trips be booked? For Raja Ampat liveaboards and top Komodo charters, six to twelve months; resort and day-boat diving is more flexible at one to three months.
