The Komodo National Park itinerary is filled with exotic and far flung dives that will make your logbook the envy of others. Sangeang, Banta, Satonda and Komodo are the focal points of the trip. Sangeang and Satonda islands are the macro capitals of this itinerary, Decorator crabs, popcorn shrimp and squat lobsters are some of the minuscule marvels you can find on the black sands.

The itinerary spends 5 full days around Komodo national park itself, where manta, dolphins and reef sharks all await. Harlequin sweetlips shy away around massive gorgonians (home to microscopic pygmy seahorses). Weave around pinnacles, looking for scorpionfish, crocodile fish and longnose hawkfish. The variety is endless.
