De 22 meter lange Phinisi Kira Kira is in 2014 op de markt gebracht en is een uitstekende budget vriendelijke optie voor het ontdekken van de diverse regio van Komodo National Park en Raja Ampat. De Phinisi Kira Kira is over een periode van twee jaar met de hand gemaakt en gebouwd met als belangrijkste punten stabiliteit, comfort en veiligheid. De liveaboard kan tot 1000 zeemijl reizen en is zeer spaarzaam en bovendien milieuvriendelijk. Kira Kira biedt een capaciteit aan voor maximaal acht passagiers in vier hutten en een persoonlijke service aan boord wat het perfect maakt voor vrienden, families of mensen die alleen reizen en graag medereizigers willen ontmoeten.

Om te ontspannen kunnen gasten ervoor kiezen om naar de lounge op het zonnendek te gaan of naar de openlucht lounge om te genieten van schitterende zonsondergangen, een boek te lezen of om te genieten van een ijskoud biertje.

We had a wonderful week of diving, made new friends and gained 5 pounds.
The food on the boat was amazing after almost 3 months in Indonesia the absolute best local food we have had. The open space on the boat was very comfortable with bean bags on the deck and plenty of space in the galley. It was easy to get to your dive gear as everything was spread out well. Our small group felt like family at the end of the trip... and experience we have never gotten on a larger liveaboard. The diving was plentiful and well organized.

Fantastic introduction to one of the wonders of the world - Raja Ampat
There were many highlights! Our dives on sites like Magic Mountain, Four Kings, and Blue Magic were probably the greatest of my life. I will never forget the sense of action and energy at these sites as tens of thousands of fish surrounded us, sometimes obscuring our view, sometimes producing a noise like underwater thunder when massed schools (silversides, fusiliers) would react as one to the predatory sallies by trevallies and jacks. Nearly as amazing were the numbers and colors of the sea fans, soft corals, and sponges (especially at the Misool sites). The topside scenery of jagged, rainforest covered, limestone islands was nearly as awesome as the diving, especially when we took sidetrips into the winding channels and shallow lagoons separating some of the islands. It was incredible to wake up in the morning in a sparsely inhabited wild place with the only sound being the dawn chorus of the birds! The Kira Kira itself was nothing fancy - no air conditioned cabins, and no frills. But there were plenty of comfortable bean bags on the shaded upper deck to lie down on while waiting for the next dive - or to sleep on during clear starlight nights. The meals cooked for us by culinary genius Muly were some of the finest I have ever eaten in Indonesia. The 8 guests, 5 crew, and 2 divemasters quickly established an easy rapport as we moved from one amazing site to another. Alex and Claire were wonderful underwater guides, showing us pygmy seahorses, mushroom coral pipefish and other macro wonders, while keeping an eye out on the blue for passing tunas and sharks and always making our safety their highest priority.

A Great Crew, Fantastic Boat, Great Sights, Even Better Price
This is my second liveaboard for scuba diving. I booked through Liveaboard.com several months in advance. The booking process was quite smooth, to a degree (more on that in a moment). When I was looking for liveaboards in Indonesia, I had rough date range, price, and things I wanted to see. The Kira Kira had exactly what I wanted. The photos of the boat are accurate (and it looks even better in person). The itinerary hit all the points. I was all set. There is a document to fill out once your booking is accepted. The main issue that happened was I hadn't been told by the booking agency exactly what time and where to meet the crew! Luckily it was sorted in the end (as I had my phone on roaming and they called me while I was in the taxi in Labuan Bajo), but Liveaboard.com was pretty bad (that should be read as non-existent) at responding to emails leading up to the trip. Let's chat more about the Kira Kira. During times of strong currents and wake from other boats, she was super steady. The designer/builder was truly a craftsman and took great pride in his work. The intricate details will amaze you. The views were stunning! With a speed boat in tow, they can get anywhere around the islands as needed. Your advanced certification will come in handy, as you enter the water from the speed boat, dive in drifts constantly (it's a strong ocean after all), and see some amazing species up close and personal. You won't be disappointed at all. I had zero complaints about the food, except that I wanted them to cook for me after I had left the boat! The chefs have some incredible recipes. With their Indonesian heritage and knowledge of Western cooking, they can create some delectable dishes that will leave you wanting more. Be sure to try the coconut spread. I had to purchase some jars of it to take home because it was that good. The other crew do a fantastic job of ensuring the Kira Kira is operated safely. Paul (the owner) and Alex (the dive master) are great lads and do the very best to take care of you. They know these areas inside and out. Alex goes over the dive in depth before each dive (and be prepared to be impressed at his whiteboard drawing skills). Together, and with the crew, they do an amazing job of scouting out the areas, understanding the currents and weather patterns, and adjusting the dive schedule so that you get the most out of your diving experience. Being flexible with the schedule is a must! Things change, so go with the flow, and you will come away with a great experience, if you catch my drift. Overall, this is a ship, crew, and group who know what they are doing. They are masters at their craft and will make sure you have an amazing liveaboard and diving trip. The cost is super-effective, and don't be fooled into thinking you would be getting a substandard product. You won't. Enjoy the experience, and, as they say, Kira Kira.

fabulous diving
I have been diving for many years and did not know I could ever be challenged like this. The waters of Komodo are fast and fierce. The underwater life and terrain are incredible. Every dive was perfection. I am sure my experience was extra great due to Alex and Paul. They are young ,passionate and experts at their professions. The group is small and even with that they catered to each persons abilities. Alex is one of the most interesting dive masters I have ever experienced. He knows everything about every site and is excited and willing to take the time for each of the guests to experience all the underwater treasures. This you don't find often. Kira Kira may not be a luxury boat, although I was there for diving and am sure it was the best diving in all of Komodo. Thank you Paul and Alex

Amazing crew, amazing trip, amazing experience.
The whole trip was perfect. The cozyness of the boat, the absolutely 5-star cooking, the light atmosphere all the time on the deck, qhere the whole crew was always laughing and having a great time, the people that came along on the trip... The diving was amazing, great current (and great experience with it!!), and the sunsets nd sunrises over the sea... Couldn't have wished for a better crew, boat, people, or vacation in general... Wish we could stay for much longer..

Magnificent liveaboard experience with amazing diving - what a wonderful trip
(July 2024) We had a blast, the boat is so pretty because of its traditional phinisi style and we felt very comfortable, also in the cabins (even though there is no air conditioner, the wind at night was cool enough). The sundeck was a good place to chill out. The food was absolutely delicious with a great variety (also vegetarian), it was mostly local dishes. The boat was very clean. There are only two bathrooms with a toilet, sink and shower on the boat and they are shared, but that didn't pose a problem. Admittedly, they didn't smell that nice sometimes (from the plumbing of the shower), but they were cleaned very often. We enjoyed the diving enormously, we saw so many different species (octopus, manta rays, so many nudibranchs and flatworms, cuttlefish, sharks, mantis shrimps, crabs, huge fish swarms, etc...), the reefs were in good condition and teeming with life, and some of the dive sites were spectacular because of the adrenaline factor (strong currents). We felt that the crew was very welcoming and working hard at all times to ensure we had a great time. The dive guides (Savri and Faldy) always knew the sites and conditions very well, it was obvious that they had a lot of experience and were very focused on safety.

Wunderbares erstes Liveaboard
Ich hatte einer sehr schöne Zeit an Board der Kira Kira. Bei der Buchung sollte klar sein, dass kein großer Luxus zu erwarten ist, aber das war für mich kein Problem. Ich habe meine Kabine mit einer anderen Frau geteilt, es wurde darauf geachtet, dass es das gleiche Geschlecht ist. In der Kabine war es nachts zum Teil sehr heiß, der Fan ist sehr laut. Ich habe manchmal an Deck geschlafen, da war es sehr angenehm. Die Situation mit den 2 Toiletten/ Duschen war kein Problem, es gab selten lange Wartezeiten. Das Essen war sehr lecker und abwechslungsreich, wer allerdings nicht gerne scharf ist oder Knoblauch nicht verträgt sollte das am Anfang sagen. Wichtig zu wissen ist, dass wir 18 Tauchgänge gemacht haben (1 Nightdive) und am letzten Tag KEINEN mehr. Das sollte man vor der Buchung des Rückfluges noch einmal explizit beim Boatmanager nachfragen, denn dann kann man schon am letzten Tag aus Labuan Bajo zurückfliegen und muss nicht wegen der 24h-Regel warten. Außerdem haben wir erfahren, dass auf dem Nachbarschiff 21 TG gemacht wurden bei gleichem Preis, wir konnten uns das nicht genau erklären. Die 18 TG haben sich aber alle gelohnt. Die Crew und die Tauchguides waren alle super nett.

Great holidays!
Kira Kira is a good option to discover Raja Ampat in a affordable way. Dive sites are amazing, the crew works constantly in order to the costumers feel confortable. Food is very good and abundant. Cabins are very small, but the double one has a very big and confortable bed. There are just 2 toilets to share with all the guests and the crew, sometimes insufficient.
