Diving in Lombok
The starting point for boat trips between Lombok and Komodo
Why dive here
Lombok, in West Nusa Tenggara just east of Bali, is one end of the boat route to Komodo National Park. Travelers fly into Lombok International Airport, spend time on the island, then board a boat that sails east along the coast of Sumbawa towards Komodo, or travel the same route in the other direction.
On land, Lombok is known for the Gili islands off its northwest coast, beaches in the south and Mount Rinjani, one of Indonesia's best-known volcanoes. Many guests combine a few days on the island with a boat trip, which is why Lombok is a natural place to begin or finish a Komodo cruise.
Our boat trips between Lombok and Komodo are listed below. Routes, dates and prices depend on the boat, so send an inquiry and we will confirm what is available for your dates and group size.
