MV Pindito liveaboard has been exploring Indonesia’s remote islands for over 25 years, pioneering much of the now-famous diving in Komodo, Raja Ampat, Banda Sea and Alor. The recently refurbished vessel features updated amenities inside and out, as well as professional diving facilities, a modern camera room and technical diving support. Choose from a stunning variety of scheduled itineraries or create your own custom charter. The Pindito offers some of Indonesia’s most exciting voyages, including citizen science-themed trips, family-friendly cruises, and other unique expeditions focused on whales, macro, and more!
