Handcrafted in 2015 from ironwood and teak, Cajoma IV is one of Komodo’s most comfortable vessels for leisure and diving, combining the charm of a traditional phinisi with the style of a modern motor yacht. Designed to offer intimate, once in a lifetime experiences, this 30-metre vessel accommodates just eight guests in four rustic yet luxurious cabins and is equipped with plenty of creature comforts - including an ondeck Jacuzzi and a master cabin with its own private terrace.

Cajoma IV is operated by Manta Rhei dive centre, which has been running dive excursions in Komodo National Park for almost a decade. The team takes pride in their work as professionals and strives to give guests the best dive experience possible with highest regard for safety. The vessel’s tailor-made three-night itinerary operates between April and December each year, covering all the dive highlights of Komodo, from drift diving with manta rays and sharks to searching for sought after critters amounts the coral. Besides diving, you’ll also visit the park’s other highlights, including the famous Komodo dragons, pink beach, and Padar island.
