The Ikan Biru can house up to 8 guests. The boat has two guest bathrooms with hot freshwater showers below deck. The onboard chef serves freshly baked bread every morning that he makes in the fully stocked kitchen. Upon request, the Ikan Biru can cater to specific dietary requests. The spacious upper deck is the perfect place to relax between dives in the daytime. In the evening, it is set up as a comfortable dining area. At night, the comfortable mattresses and bedding make it the perfect spot for guests to keep cool while sleeping under the stars, dreaming of all the wonderful wildlife they’ve seen.

Highlight of our trip!
I would recommend this trip to anybody! We went for 4 days during our honeymoon and it was easily the highlight of our whole trip! We did some of the best diving of my life, met incredible people, and lived on a pirate ship. I don’t know what else you could ask for. The diving was absolutely stunning, and the dive master elevated the experience by showing us all the cool spots and helped improve our skills as divers with little experience. The first few dives were very easy going, and then got progressively more thrilling, capping it off with “The Cauldron” where we go to glide through a beautiful array of fish and coral like a roller coaster.

DO IT NOW! BOOK YOUR TRIP NOW!
Honestly, it was one of the most incredible trips I've ever done in my life. Harold (diving instructor) was fantastic, the crew worked so hard to ensure our trip was smooth, and the views were breathtaking. Diving on this trip is hard, so keep that in mind, but if you are up for the challenge, it is WELL worth it. I will definitely be coming back! 100/10.

Best diving trip so far
I had the best diving experience ever on this ship. Dive sites were out of this world, beautiful reefs and mantas. Also got to see the Komodo Dragons! Great guides, crew and food. Can't go wrong, would definitely recommend.

Perfect 4 days !
It was such a great diving trip with professional guide- Harold. He is very friendly and always gave very detailed diving briefings each time. I worried about sleeping on the deck with others. But bed(mattress), pillow and bed sheet were all comfy and set up neat and fine. Considering the cost, it was very worthy. Only the food was a bit greasy and oily cooked food rather than fresh salad but it can be just my personal taste.

Excellent liveaboard experience
Such a beautiful trip, great people, amazing weather and dive conditions and a really well paced schedule arranged by the dive guides who know Komodo like the back of their hands. Would 1000000% do again

Incredible experience for my first liveaboard!
This was my first liveaboard experience and it was incredible! The boat, crew, dive guides, guests, and food all made this a truly memorable and wonderful experience. I would happily do a longer liveaboard with Blue Marlin around Komodo again, the dive sites and whole vibe of the boat, crew, and guests was perfect.

Great liveaboard option when you're on a budget
I had an absolutely amazing experience on Ikan Biru. All the staff was exceptionally friendly and helpful. The boat is a basic budget option, nothing fancy, but it was still a totally nice ship, well maintained and comfy. Of course you don't get a/c and much privacy, but it's not geared towards that crowd. We had plenty of space on the ship, the food was great and the diving was a lot of fun. I just wished that our DM pointed out a little more stuff, especially of the smaller kind. I'm able to see the sharks, rays and turtles myself, but I don't know where all the macro is, if I'm not familiar with the dive sites. Other than that it was a perfect trip. I can totally recommend to book with these guys!

trip of a lifetime for keen and advanced divers
Our family loved our 4 days on the Ikan Biru. The diving was wonderful, the crew were great, the dive guides excellent, and life aboard is very comfortable. Note that this is not a luxury trip - all guests sleep up on the top deck with no cabins. However it is very comfortable, and excellent value in my view.
