Based in Bali, the Indo Aggressor is a traditionally-crafted wooden motor sailer which accommodates 16 divers & explores the waters in the Flores Sea including Komodo National Park.

 

A word from Dom :  “The Indo Aggressor has been cruising Komodo since long before many of the other liveaboards. She has a certain old-world charm and avoids being too hard on the budget, making her a welcome choice for Komodo diving. ”  Dominick Macan

TRAVEL & CRUISE LOGISTICS


International flights generally arrive at one of the following airports:  Bali-Denpasar (DPS) … Jakarta (CGK)  … Manado (MDC)  ,,, but for these itineraries, Bali tends to be the most practical.  If you are on a Bali to Komodo cruise, you will leave from Benoa Harbor in Bali.  All other itineraries require a domestic flight to either Labuan Bajo or Maumere on Flores. We will be pleased to help you book your domestic flights through our Bali agent.

The boat’s scheduled departure time varies depending on current domestic airline schedules, which can change, so departure details are not listed here. We’ll inform you at time of booking and will keep you posted on any possible changes.
