Plongée à Komodo National Park — Indonesia

Komodo National Park delivers adrenaline-fueled diving in nutrient-rich currents that attract massive manta rays and dense schools of pelagics. Above water, the park's famous Komodo dragons add a prehistoric dimension to the adventure. Strong currents at sites like Batu Bolong and Cauldron demand experience but reward divers with some of Indonesia's most thrilling underwater action.
