Dining aboard the Lady Denok is a culinary journey, featuring a delightful blend of Indonesian specialties and Western dishes, all prepared fresh by the onboard chef. Meals are served buffet-style in the charming outdoor dining area, providing a picturesque setting with stunning ocean views. Guests can enjoy three delicious meals a day, complemented by snacks available throughout the day. The galley is adept at catering to various dietary needs, with excellent vegan and vegetarian options readily available. Complimentary soft drinks, tea, and coffee are always on hand, while a selection of beer and fine wines can be purchased to accompany your meals or to enjoy during sunset.

Indonesia sits at the heart of the Coral Triangle, the most biodiverse marine region on the planet, harboring over 75% of all known coral species and more than 3,000 species of reef fish. Divers exploring these waters encounter an astonishing range of marine life, from pygmy seahorses and flamboyant cuttlefish to oceanic manta rays and schools of mobula rays. The country's vast archipelago offers dramatically different diving experiences — from muck diving over volcanic black sand to exhilarating drift dives along current-swept walls. Healthy coral reefs explode with color, hosting dense colonies of soft corals, sea fans, and barrel sponges. Whale sharks visit seasonally in several regions, and rare species such as walking sharks (epaulette sharks) can be found in the eastern waters.
VAT · Airport Transfer
Park, Port and Fuel Fees (180-375 USD per trip) · Dive Insurance
Return airport transfers and hotel transfers are included in the trip price. Guests will be picked up from the airport or their hotel and transported to the vessel's embarkation point.
We strongly recommend all guests to purchase comprehensive dive accident insurance and trip cancellation insurance before departure. Dive accident insurance covers medical treatment, hyperbaric chamber costs, and emergency evacuation in the event of a diving incident. Trip cancellation insurance protects your financial investment — not only if you need to cancel or cut short your trip due to personal illness, injury, or other unforeseen circumstances, but also if the trip is postponed or cancelled by the operator due to severe weather, technical issues, or other operational reasons. In the unlikely event of operator insolvency, cancellation insurance can also help recover your payments. Please ensure your policies are valid for the entire duration of your trip and cover the planned activities.
