The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.liquidadventuresindonesia.com\/liveaboard\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">akomo isseki<\/a> is an ideal pick for families and close-knit groups seeking a more personalized experience. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Stepping into the guest cabins, you&#8217;ll be greeted by the rich warmth of teak wood interiors, ample storage space, and natural ventilation only (more on that below).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Modern comforts haven&#8217;t been overlooked, with two communal restrooms boasting up-to-date fixtures and efficient flush systems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Beyond the cabins, the ship offers a variety of communal spaces. From the shaded dive deck to the airy outdoor saloon, there are numerous spots to gather, share experiences, and pore over the day&#8217;s captured moments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And when hunger strikes, the shared dining area becomes the heart of the ship, where a delectable fusion of Indonesian flavors meets Western culinary delights.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The aroma of fresh bread and the allure of hot coffee is ever-present, ensuring you&#8217;re refueled and ready for the adventures that lie ahead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What&#8217;s missing? (The cons)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>As this is one of the cheapest liveaboards you can find to dive in Komodo, what are you really giving up on?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Cabin Ventilation:<\/strong> The cabins lack adequate air conditioning and have limited ventilation. The warmest nights can be uncomfortable even with a ceiling porthole and two small fans.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Electricity Constraints:<\/strong> The generator in the dining area powers all electronic charging. This setup means no electricity during meals and overnight, which can be challenging for those with multiple devices.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>(Very)<\/strong> <strong>Low Ceilings:<\/strong> Particularly noticeable in the dining area, the low ceilings might be problematic for some guests. Unfortunately, the boat was built for people the size of the local ones, and I cannot recommend this boat for people taller than 155 cm (unless you are prepared to bump your head several times a day against the ceiling).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Technical Issues:<\/strong> Several technical difficulties were reported by divers, notably frequent toilet and shower malfunctions.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>No Nitrox<\/strong>: The boat does not offer Nitrox for dives, which might be a consideration. When doing so many dives in a row, Nitrox does help a lot with tiredness and recovery. It is common for budget liveaboards not to offer Nitrox.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Few night dives<\/strong>: The boat typically doesn&#8217;t schedule night diving sessions, or may be one or two during the trip, which may be disappointing for those looking to experience Komodo&#8217;s marine life at night. Personally, I think this is a huge bummer, but not everyone feels the same about night dives, and it&#8217;s worth noting you will probably be tired at the end of each day.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>However, it&#8217;s worth noting the standout quality of food \u2013 with commendable vegan options \u2013 and the excellent service from the crew. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>This boat might suit travelers who prioritize diving experiences over onboard luxury.<\/strong> <strong>If you want the most dives for your buck, this is it. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Conclusion: Worth it?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The Akomo Isseki offers one of the most budget-friendly liveaboard experiences for exploring the stunning Komodo National Park.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>While it presents unbeatable value in terms of the number of dives per dollar, compared to pricier alternatives, it does come with certain compromises.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Expect warmer nights due to the absence of air conditioning, and be mindful of the traditionally low ceilings of this local Phinisi-style vessel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Additionally, if you&#8217;re keen on nocturnal underwater adventures, note that night dives aren&#8217;t frequently on the itinerary.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, if your primary focus is to immerse yourself in the underwater wonders of Komodo without breaking the bank, the Akomo Isseki promises a memorable voyage. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I give it a thumbs up for those prioritizing diving adventures on a budget.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dive deep into Indonesia&#8217;s shimmering waters without burning a hole in your pocket with the Akomo Isseki liveaboard (click to<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":3782,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_uag_custom_page_level_css":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[50],"tags":[51],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.1 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Akomo Isseki Liveaboard (Diver&#039;s Review) - DivingCorner<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Budget liveaboard or luxury liner?
