Exceptional Diving at Your Pace
Adelaar is a fully equipped private dive liveaboard, offering up to four dives per day—or fewer if you prefer a more relaxed rhythm. You’ll enjoy expert dive guides, two custom dive tenders, and access to Indonesia’s top dive sites, from Komodo’s Batu Bolong to Raja Ampat’s vibrant reefs.
