La Galigo Liveaboard
La Galigo is recognised as one of the most popular liveaboards for diving in Indonesia and offers trips to famous diving locations such as Komodo and Raja Ampat. Indonesia holds the record for the highest Marine Biodiversity on the planet, and is home to ‘The Coral Triangle’.
The concept of La Galigo was conceived back in the early 2000s when two avid divers wanted to explore some of the pristine reefs that call Indonesia home but found that all existing scuba diving options were often out of their budget.
La Galigo Liveaboard is very much a friends and family affair, and our offers for Indonesia diving trips are always focused on fun, and guest comfortability, and are exceptional value for money for Raja Ampat diving and/or Komodo diving trips.
About Us
La Galigo was acquired in Bali, a beautiful purpose-built ‘Phinisi’ style dive Liveaboard, handcrafted by the Bugis people of Southern Sulawesi. We pride ourselves on our Indonesian crew, who have collectively spent many years sailing and diving around a significant number of the 18,000+ stunning islands that make up Indonesia.
Our dive destinations are primarily split between Raja Ampat and Komodo, though we offer the opportunity to dive in Wakatobi, Banda, Ambon, Maumere, Alor and beyond.
We are predominantly a scuba diving liveaboard but we are happy to tailor bespoke charters on request. The vessel takes a maximum of 14 guests comfortably, and our accommodation is offered as seven cabins split over two decks, constructed with comfort in mind.
All of our Master and Deluxe cabins are available in either double or twin share beds with air-conditioning and ensuite fresh hot water showers.
your second home
We love our guests to feel at home, and we have several deck areas where people can relax, take in the exceptional surroundings or just read a book.
Indoors you will find our air-conditioned communal space, where our internationally trained chef will serve you a mixture of Indonesian and International cuisine. Our communal lounge area is also filled with an extensive library of books, games and a TV and is the perfect space to share your experiences of another impeccable day’s diving.
Land tours are an integral part of our outlined itineraries, allowing you to experience the breathtaking beauty and diverse cultures that Indonesia has to offer.
Our purpose-built dive deck at the rear of the vessel allows plenty of room for gearing up and lots of camera space for underwater photography enthusiasts, and with the deck being at sea level, it is designed with guest comfort and accessibility in mind.

Book direct and get exclusive benefits
Many operators and third-party resellers often require between 25% and 100% of the full value of your trip before confirmation. Here at La Galigo, we have a reliable solution for you.
We want the future of your booking to be secure. So, at La Galigo, for the remainder of all scheduled trips in 2022, and until September 2023, we now only require a 10% down payment as confirmation. This applies to all early birds who book 60 days or more before your embarkation date.
Who doesn’t like a freebie? When you book with us direct, we are happy to offer you a free diving insurance policy which includes medical evacuation for the duration of your trip. We prefer to work with our established partners at the Divers Alert Network (D.A.N.), and a comprehensive policy will be attached to your booking if you do not already have one. For safety, we require all our guests to have a dive medical policy, but this one is on us!
All of our scheduled trips are guaranteed to depart regardless of how many confirmed bookings there are, so you can book in confidence with us knowing that if you are the only person on the boat…you will still go diving!
With our extensive knowledge of travel in Indonesia and the fact we regularly travel across the country exploring new areas to dive, we are in a great position to make recommendations for hotels and domestic Airlines. Here at La Galigo we also work closely with some of our preferred service suppliers, and can offer unbeatable rates on handpicked hotels, from luxury to affordable.
Need help with local flights and hotels? When you book with us direct, we will help you booking Indonesian domestic flights and hotels, giving you peace of mind that you’ll arrive with time to spare for your trip or your flight home.
You will not find our published prices cheaper anywhere else, and after you deal with us as a direct guest of La Galigo, we can offer you further discounts on hotel bookings and for future trips.
We have multiple secure payment options, including bank transfers and credit card payments to internationally recognised banks, including TransferWise, PayPal and other Banking options as well.

Hanging in current at the Cauldron watching a free diver swim among Mantas, pygmy seahorses and the friendship that developed between a group of strangers.

Diving with mantas Beautiful corals Night dives Hot drink and snack after diving Carefree diving – you don’t need to touch your equipment (unless you want to) Spectacular shore trips

A first liveaboard experience that will be hard to out-do.
The overall experience delighted me. When I thought “that last dive was the best dive”, it was out done on the next dive. The hard working crew went out of their way to insure everything was perfect. If there was a small glitch (because nothing in life is perfect), they would see to it immediately. The ship is beautiful and easily felt at home for 8 days.

Amazing!
We had the best time on the La Galigo back in September 2018! We took the Komodo trip and the entire crew made the experience beyond incredible! The rooms are large, the food was excellent and the diving was superb. We absolutely want to join a trip in Raja Ampat in the future aboard the La Galigo!
