Since the weather is usually sunny, you will spend most of the stay in bathing suits, so bring even a few of them. You will spend most time on board barefoot, but you will need proper shoes for the trek on Komodo/Rinca island.
Occasionally, it can get a little bit cool in the evenings, so a light top is useful to have.
We recommend to use rash-vests as they are a great solution to limit the use of sunblock.
Avoid suitcases if possible and try to use soft collapsible bags.
We love having children on board. We have life jackets for kids and also snorkeling gears but if you have your own which fit well, it’s a good idea to bring it.
We know how important the food is on a liveaboard and we take pride in sourcing the freshest ingredients at the local market.
Our cook will be able to prepare both Asian and Western foods.
Please let us know in advance of all dietary requirements or requests so we can make arrangements. We operate from relatively remote areas so it isn’t always possible to get specific ingredients, but we’ll always try our best to accommodate.
With enough notice vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, and non-dairy diets can be catered too.

Wifi? No! Enjoy your trip.
Each cabin has several 220V AC power sockets. The type of socket is two round pins.

Tipping in Indonesia is entirely a matter of choice. If your stay exceeded your expectations, you may wish to leave a tip to the crew. They will share it equally between them.
