Item Description

Immerse yourself in the diverse underwater world of Komodo Island while enjoying the luxury of the Pindito!

Since 1991 the Komodo National Park has been recognized as a World Heritage Site by UNESCO. Originally the park was established as a sanctuary for the Komodo dragons. Later the protection was extended to include the entire flora and fauna, above and below the sea.

Komodo diving offers extreme diversity. From intricate macro subjects to drift dives with manta rays you will not be disappointed. You can find over 1,000 species of fish in these waters, 260 species of reef corals, 70 different sponges, 17 species of whales and dolphins and two species of sea turtles.

Komodo Dragons are tops on everyone's list! These impressive animals live exclusively in Indonesia and have a maximum length of 3 meters. We will have the opportunity to tour the Park. In additionas to dragons, visitors also can see macaque monkeys, wild boar, deer and water buffalos.

Enjoy this aboard the luxury of the Pindito Live-aboard. Relax in the luxury of our teakwood-paneled cabins. Each 10' x 10' cabin is named after a mystical Indonesian island and, depending on your reservation, is appointed either with a twin bed plus an upper bunk, or with a spacious double bed…your choice. All cabins feature ensuite heads with hot and cold running water (vanity and shower as well as toilet), individually controlled air conditioning.

Our crew is devoted to your comfort and will attend to your cabin daily, keeping it clean and tidy and providing fresh towels as necessary. Additional towels are available for you on deck as needed.

Pindito offers six double cabins and two twin cabins, creating very comfortable accommodations for up to 16 guests.
