Pindito
- Komodo - Bali
Day
One, Bali
The Pindito provides transfers from any hotel in South Bali
to the Pindito and welcomes you on board at 11:00 AM in
Benoa Harbor, South East Bali. As soon as all guests are
on board and are holding their welcome drink the Pindito
is ready to leave the harbour. You will be introduced to
the crew members and you will be shown around in order to
start feeling at home on the Pindito.
In the meantime the Pindito leaves the harbour and heads
off towards Lombok. Take this opportunity to enjoy Balis
famous sunsets while enjoying a drink our deck. Dinner will
be served while cruising towards our first destination,
Satonda north of Sumbawa.
Day
Two, Satonda, North Sumbawa
After our light breakfast, we´ll have a check dive
at the calm shore of Satonda. After this dive full breakfast
will be served. Satonda, an island which has both shore-side
and underwater treats, to entertain everybody. Todays
diving will take place in this spectacular area, including
the night dive. If you wish, we can organise a short walk
to the brackish lake where locals believe sacred wishes
become true. Right after sunset there are thousands of fruit
bats lifting off from Satonda Island towards Sumbawa; a
spectacle of its own. After the night dive we lift anchor
and depart with directions Komodo National Park.
Day Three, Banta
The vegetation has changed drastically. A rough and dry
landscape is the new scenery. The peaceful bays of Banta
Island, and an enormous variety of fish life under water.
Our special spot called "Critters" offer a full
menu of rarnesness. After dinner, we will sail towards our
next incredible destination, Rinca.
Day Four, Rinca, Komodo National Park
After a peaceful night´s cruise to the sheltered waters
of Horseshoe Bay, Rinca Island, we will spend the whole
day diving in this area. You can enjoy the uniqueness of
this area. These dive sites are famous for their diversity
in marine life that will be fully appreciated once under
the water! All meals will be served on board. Between dives
our guests can explore the lonely beach by going for a walk
or with the binoculars. Wild boars, monkeys and the odd
Komodo dragon are the highlights.
Day
Five, Komodo National Park
Another day diving in the Horseshoe Bay area is scheduled.
We will introduce new incredible dive spots and as well
hold on to the already explored favourites. Enjoy relaxing
cocktails and learn about the marine species from our vast
library of identification books in between dives. We will
lift anchor late at night to move towards the village of
Komodo for your "dragon adventure" the following
morning.

Pindito welcomes you to the famous Komodo Island early this
morning. After breakfast, a park ranger will escort you
for a 4.5 km walk. You can see the Komodo Dragons when they
are sunbathing and heating up, from very, very close (a
scary and challenging experience at once!). Komodo National
Park is the only habitat on earth where the dragons still
exist. After lunch, you will spend the rest of the afternoon
diving in this incredible area. Dinner will be served on
board.
Day

What else should be scheduled but diving in this fantastic
region? We visit islands such as Padar, Tatawa, and Rinca.

the best dive sites. We will spend the entire day diving
