Had a great time after a long hiatus from diving. Frank is a legend for making sure I was confident and ready for each dive. He is also super knowledgeable and knows where to find the cool marine life hiding in the corals. Shout out to all the Scuba Republic crew for an unforgettable day out in Komodo!

5 star experience for a really good price. The food on the boat was amazing. The crew were extremely friendly and also very professional. Made us feel safe and also comfortable. Our dive master Jo was super experienced and took us on 3 once in a lifetime dives. We saw it all, mantas, turtles, sharks, schools of fish, vibrant coral. Truly amazing. I couldn’t recommend these guys more, they were amazing!

Diving in Komodo
The dive sites in Komodo can be technically challenging due to the very strong current commonly encountered in many areas. It is important that the current conditions are understood, and dives are guided only by seasoned professionals that not only know where to dive but also understand when and how to dive the site.
Safety is always a priority. We choose dive sites that are appropriate for our divers based on their certification level, experience, and comfort. We check weather, tides and currents when we plan and check the currents upon arriving at the dive sites.
We base our dive groups on levels of experience and never assign more than 4 people to a guide.
All dives are boat dives. Luckily, Scuba Republic has one of the most comfortable and roomy day trip boats in the Park. The spacious dive deck is at sea level and has ample room to gear up. On our breezy top deck, you can recline on giant beanbags between dives while munching on a snack and taking in the breath-taking scenery.
As a bonus – we have a kitchen on board! Forget about soggy sandwiches and enjoy freshly prepared meals.
