Luxurious Dive Adventures with SY Adelaar in Komodo
The waters, protected by the national park, boast abundant marine life and large pelagic fish. The numerous small islands offer unique diving experiences, far from the usual dive paths, allowing liveaboard divers to explore diverse sites.
The vessel is a magnificent Dutch schooner, now a classical yacht with impeccable standards, sailing between Bali and Komodo year-round. Adelaar caters to discerning travelers, offering luxury sailing and diving for small groups. The 125-foot (38m) long and 18-foot (5.5m) wide SY Adelaar provides the comforts and luxury of a 5-star hotel on land.
Crafted in 1902 and overhauled in 2009, the liveaboard accommodates up to eight guests in four elegantly furnished double staterooms. The rich teak interior, high ceilings, air conditioning, intricate Persian rugs, and marble en-suite bathrooms exude elegance. Each cabin, as well as the salon and dining area, features flat-screen TVs connected to the ship’s video and audio streaming system, offering access to over 3,000 movies and 30,000 songs.
Guests enjoy true Indonesian hospitality, delectable onboard cuisine prepared fresh daily by Balinese cooks, and special sunsets at sea. The SY Adelaar's itineraries are perfectly timed for optimal exploration of dive sites, offering beautiful accommodations and world-class service.
Komodo's dive spots feature turquoise, crystal-clear water with visibility often at 30-40m. After diving, relax at the bar with a cool drink, great food, or enjoy the views from the sundeck. Food plays a crucial role in the dive holiday experience, with a menu influenced by love for detail, offering a sophisticated twist on contemporary Indonesian flavors, including plenty of vegetarian options. Tasty snacks or homemade cakes are served each afternoon.
The team consists of 10 people, including one dive professional who ensures a great diving experience. English and Indonesian are spoken on board.
