The Komodo National Park is located right at the center of the Asia-Pacific Coral Triangle and boasts one of the world's most incredible marine biodiversity. With approximately 100 amazing diving sites, the islands of the Park are in the bucket list of virtually all divers, wildlife photographers, and marine scientists. The Komodo Park’s diving spots are as diverse and dynamic as the sea species that can be sighted: there are sites characterized by strong currents, riptides, and whirlpools that bring in a wealth of nutrients to feed thousands of species of corals, colored reef fish, manta rays, sharks, and dugongs, but also low visibility muck sites where rare invertebrates can be observed from close range. Since the sea conditions might be rather challenging, divers are strongly encouraged to accept no compromise on safety and only rely on reputable, trustworthy diving operators.
