Explore the magical islands you will visit aboard Leticia Liveaboard. Each stop offers a unique adventure from pink beaches to dragon encounters.
KELOR ISLAND
Ancient sailors called it "The Guardian." Dutch colonials built watchtowers on its crown. Local legend says it's a giant sea turtle turned to stone. A 20-minute climb rewards you with 360° views of dragon territories. The coral gardens below hide patrolling sea turtles in crystal shallows.
MANJERITE
Every sunset, tens of thousands of flying foxes launch from mangroves, creating a black river across orange skies. Ancient sea nomads believed these bats carried souls to the afterlife. Watch from your deck at 17:30. The sky will erupt. You'll forget to breathe.
PADAR ISLAND
Three crescent bays—turquoise, cobalt, jade—curve around dragon-spine ridges. Legend says a dragon princess died here protecting her brothers. Her body became the ridgeline. Her tears became three seas. The 30-minute climb is ruthless, but every explorer says: "I can die now."
PINK BEACH
One of only seven pink beaches on Earth. Microscopic red coral creates a rose-gold blush. Sailors once feared it was cursed by dragon blood. The reef drops from knee-deep to 50 meters—turtles, reef sharks, and octopi patrol waters so clear you'll think you're dreaming.
KOMODO ISLAND
Ground zero. The throne. Komodo dragons—largest lizards on Earth, unchanged for 4 million years. They sprint 20 km/h, kill with venom-laced bites. Trek with armed rangers. Watch them sun like kings. Feel evolution stare back. This isn't a zoo. It's their Kingdom
TAKA MAKASSAR
A sandbar that emerges at low tide, then disappears beneath waves. Sea nomads called it "Ghost Island"—a resting place for ocean spirits. Stand in the middle of the ocean with ankle-deep water. Snorkel where the island vanishes. Your private Maldives, but only for 2 hours.
MANTA POINT
A submerged pinnacle where currents collide, creating a cleaning station for manta rays with 7-meter wingspans. Divers call them "Royal Stingrays"—reincarnated ocean kings. The taboo: look, never touch. Watch them barrel-roll beneath you. Swimming with mantas IS your bucket list.
GILI LAWA
Twin islands—Lawa Darat and Lawa Laut—frame the golden highway between sky and sea. Ancient traders navigated by these peaks. At sunrise, watch the world ignite from savannah ridges. At sunset, the sky bleeds into three shades of fire. The 30-minute trek is steep, but the 360° view makes kings jealous.
SLABA ISLAND
Slaba rises like a fortress from deep blue—a volcanic dome crowned with savannah where white-bellied sea eagles hunt. Bajo fishermen call it "Pulau Rajawali" (Eagle Island), believing the birds are guardians of hidden treasures below. Dive the walls where currents deliver big fish, sharks, and swirling barracuda. Above: eagles. Below: an underwater avalanche of life.
SEBAYUR ISLAND
Sebayur guards one of Komodo's best-kept secrets: untouched coral gardens teeming with life. While others chase dragons, divers chase legends here—pygmy seahorses, ghost pipefishes, and macro critters hiding in soft coral forests. The bay is a natural aquarium. The hillside trek offers sunrise views without the Padar crowds.
KANAWA ISLAND
While crowds chase Pink Beach, explorers slip to Kanawa—pristine coral reefs, zero crowds. Fishermen once avoided it, believing the Sea Goddess protected these waters. The reef here is 80% live coral. Turtles nest on beaches. Blacktip sharks patrol shallows. This is the Komodo nobody talks about.
SABOLO ISLAND (RANGKO CAVE)
Hidden in Sabolo's limestone cliffs lies Rangko Cave—a saltwater cavern illuminated by a ceiling skylight. Sunbeams pierce the darkness, turning water neon blue. Local legend says bathing here grants courage to face dragons. Swim through the entrance tunnel. Surface inside the cathedral. Float in liquid sapphire while light dances on ancient rock.
BIDADARI ISLAND
Bidadari" means angel in Indonesian. One glance explains why. Powdery white sand. Turquoise shallows. Zero crowds. Fishermen say angels rest here between monsoons, leaving footprints in the sand that waves erase by dawn. Snorkel the fringing reef where baby blacktips patrol. This is your castaway fantasy—pristine, peaceful, perfect.

I’ve sailed the Coral Triangle before, but nothing compares to the grace of Leticia Liveaboard. The 35-meter phinisi glided through the straits like a whisper—smooth, silent, intentional. Our group of eight friends docked at Kanawa Island, where we snorkeled alongside manta rays in glassy turquoise waters, then retreated to the upper deck for a long, laughter-filled lunch of grilled mahi-mahi and tamarind glaze. The cabin was minimalist luxury: soft lighting, a rainfall shower, and a view I never tired of. Mornings began with yoga at anchor, followed by espresso served on deck. If I’m being candid, the lower deck cabins get less breeze, but our steward adjusted the AC silently each night—no complaints. What sets Leticia apart is the staff’s intuition; they remembered how you took your coffee, anticipated your next dive preference. Komodo Island felt wild and ancient, but returning to the yacht was like coming home to quiet opulence. For a friends getaway, it was perfection—equal parts adventure and indulgence.

As an experienced diver from Singapore, I’ve been on many liveaboards—but Leticia stands apart. Her 2021 build combines classic Phinisi lines with contemporary luxury that feels lived-in, not showy. Our group of six explored Komodo’s most iconic sites, from the adrenaline of Taka Makassar’s currents to the serene ballet of Manta Point. The dive team was exceptional—knowledgeable, safety-focused, and deeply passionate. We even had a marine biologist on board, who explained coral spawning cycles over cocktails. Above water, Pink Beach dazzled with its blush sand and clear shallows, perfect for post-dive relaxation. The cabins were serene, though the lighting could be brighter for reading. Still, the overall experience was transcendent. Leticia doesn’t just facilitate diving; she elevates it. Every detail, from the rinse tanks to the post-dive chocolate, felt considered.

Komodo’yu ‘bambaşka bir boyutta’ keşfettim Leticia Liveaboard ile – ve evet, bu sefer ‘perfect’ kelimesini fazla abartmıyorum. Eşimle 4 günlük ayın balı turu için seçtiğimiz bu vip phinisi, sadece bir yat değil, adeta hareket halinde bir butik otel. 35 metrelik büyüklüğüne rağmen samimi bir hava yayıyor, özellikle güvertede master suite’imize açılan özel teras, her sabah kahvemizi içtiğimiz romantik bir köşe haline geldi. Taka Makassar’daki şahane manzaraya uyandıktan sonra, Bidadari Beach’ten yapılan ilk snorkelling seansı nefesimizi kesti – mercanlar canlanmış gibi, balık sürüleri neredeyse dokunulacak kadar yakındı. Manta Point’te yüzme fırsatı da unutulmaz oldu; bir sürü manta, tam altımızda süzülüp giderken drone shot ile kaydettik – Leticia ekibinin bu detaylara ne kadar önem verdiğini o an anladık. Pilotlar profesyonel, hizmet ekibi nazik ama çok fazla göz önünde değil – ki bu, bir lüks yolculukta aradığım şey. Tek küçük eksik, master suite’deki klima geceleri biraz sessiz çalışsaydı… ama o da büyük bir sorun değil. Pink Beach’e doğru ilerlerken güverteye yayıldık, açık hava sinemasında bir film izledik, şarap eşliğinde. Leticia sadece bir itinerary değil; duyguları yeniden keşfettiren bir experience. Burak Öz’e de tavsiye ettim – o da önümüzdeki ay biniyor!

Babymoon di Leticia Liveaboard was pure bliss. The ambiance is so serene — perfect for slowing down. We spent a quiet afternoon at Gili Lawa, just swimming and talking. Crew gave us a baby-safe snorkel vest, which was thoughtful. Kabin king size with ocean view — every morning felt like a dream. Dinner menu had light options, ideal for my nausea. One small note: bathroom door doesn’t lock fully, but not critical. Malam terakhir, they arranged a couples’ massage on deck. Under the stars, listening to waves — I cried it was so beautiful. This isn’t just a trip; it’s a memory in the making. Leticia treated us like family, not guests.

Saya datang ke Leticia Liveaboard setelah 18 bulan burnout, butuh reset. Ini bukan sekadar trip, tapi healing journey. Program yoga pagi di dek utama, dengan latar Padar Island yang menjulang, itu transformative. The silence, the rhythm of the sea—everything supports mindfulness. Makanan-nya juga diatur dengan mindful approach: plant-based options, turmeric shots every morning, dan zero processed sugar. Snorkeling di Crystal Rock memberi sensasi weightlessness yang sangat meditative. Iya, ada satu malam listrik sempat flicker, tapi crew langsung handle tanpa bikin panik. Yang paling menenangkan adalah waktu kita anchorage di Long Beach—tidak ada suara mesin kapal lain, hanya debur ombak dan angin. Saya tidur paling nyenyak di sana. The balance between curated wellness dan freedom to explore itu sempurna. Saya tidak datang untuk party, dan Leticia menghargai itu. Would come back for a 7-day retreat if they offer it.

The Leticia Liveaboard is a masterclass in calm. From Singapore, we’re used to fast-paced escapes, but this was different—deliberate, almost meditative. At Sebayur Island, we kayaked through mangroves at low tide, then snorkeled where the current brought in schools of batfish. The boat itself is a sanctuary: the cabins are spacious without being showy, the linens cool, the showers powerful. What struck us was the crew’s quiet confidence—no over-explaining, no forced cheer. They simply knew—when to offer a towel, when to pour wine, when to disappear. We were on a babymoon, craving stillness, and Leticia delivered. One afternoon, the Wi-Fi dropped completely—no signal for hours. Instead, I read, napped, and watched the sea shift from indigo to jade. It was the best unplanned reset. The final dinner, anchored off Padar Island, felt like a quiet benediction. I’d return in a heartbeat.

The Leticia Liveaboard doesn’t shout, and that’s precisely why it resonates. We joined during a babymoon, craving stillness more than adventure. The crew understood instantly—offering early dinners, shaded deck nooks, and a masseuse who came aboard at Sebayur Island. Snorkelling at Taka Makassar was effortless; the coral gardens so dense they felt almost artificial. But it was the evenings on the upper deck, watching the sky dissolve into stars while sipping turmeric tea, that stayed with us. The boat’s length—35 meters—means space is never contested. Our cabin, forward-facing, had a window that framed the sea like a Rothko. I’d have liked slightly stronger Wi-Fi for work handovers, but that’s a small trade for true disconnection. The galley’s emphasis on local ingredients—dragon fruit, tumeric, wild-caught mahi—felt both ethical and refined. This is luxury as absence: of noise, of clutter, of excess.

سافرت مع عائلتي المكونة من ستة أفراد، بينهم طفلان (8 و11 سنة)، على متن Leticia Liveaboard، وكانت التجربة مُحكمة بعناية. تم تخصيص كوخين متجاورين بسهولة، والـstaff تعامل مع الأطفال بلطف دون أن يفقدوا طابع الـluxury. توقفنا في بينك بيتش، حيث أُعجب الأولاد بلون الرمل النادر، ثم توجهنا إلى نوساء كود، حيث شاهدنا قردة المكاك تتحرك بين الصخور. وضعت إدارة القارب برنامجًا تفاعليًا عن البيئة، شمل شرحًا مبسطًا عن الشعاب المرجانية، مما جعل الرحلة تعليمية أيضًا. الـdrone shot الذي صوره أحد الضيوف أثناء غروب الشمس على باتو بولونغ كان لا يُنسى. العشاء على السطح، تحت النجوم، مع موسيقى خافتة، كان moment مثاليًا. فقط أتمنى لو أن نظام التكييف في الكابينة الأمامية يعمل بسلاسة أكبر. رغم ذلك، التوازن بين المغامرة والراحة كان مثاليًا لعائلة تبحث عن تجربة خارج الإطار.

Leticia Liveaboard redefined what a luxury dive trip could be. Arriving from Singapore, my expectations were high—but the reality surpassed them. The yacht’s 2021 craftsmanship is evident in every detail: the polished deck, the precision of the crew, the artful presentation of each meal. We spent a dreamy afternoon at Pink Beach, where the blush-hued sands felt like something from a myth. Later, diving at Taka Makassar revealed coral gardens teeming with life—butterflyfish, reef sharks, even a sleeping wobbegong. As part of a tight-knit dive group, we valued the personalized briefings and well-maintained gear. The only minor note? Showers, while hot and generous, drained quickly with back-to-back use. That said, the experience was flawless—especially watching the sunset from the upper deck with a Hendricks and tonic in hand. Leticia doesn’t just transport you through Komodo; she immerses you in it, with grace.
