Cheng Ho liveaboard is a traditionally constructed wooden phinisi, boasting teak interiors, spacious and comfortable cabins, and all the diver-friendly features you’ll ever need. This liveaboard offers a comprehensive selection of exciting itineraries in Komodo, and less-traveled diving destinations such as Maumere, with trips lasting between four and eight days. And, no matter which adventure you choose, you'll have a chance to dive up to four times a day at some of Indonesia's most legendary sites, joined by sharks, reef mantas, and more! Back on deck, you can expect luxurious details and highly personalised service, above and below the waves.
