Highlights
Bajak is a newly renovated boat that brings forth a pirate-like atmosphere while maintaining modern-day comforts for 14 guests. The living space consists of 4 air-conditioned cabins: 1 master cabin with a double bed and an en-suite bathroom, and 3 shared cabins with 4 bunk beds and 2 shared bathrooms. Made mostly from ironwood and teakwood salvaged from decommissioned boats, the Bajak operates as a liveaboard boat in the beautiful setting of the Komodo National Park and offers access to one of the richest marine environments in the world, including stunning coral reefs, seagrass beds, seamounts, pinnacles, dramatic walls, overhangs, semi-enclosed bays, and Komodo Dragons.
The exterior features a spacious, shaded deck ideal for dive preparation, as well as an unshaded rooftop equipped with comfortable bean bags and sun mattresses, perfect for tanning and relaxation. The dining table is set right in the open galley. Additionally, there is a furnished undercover space primed for relaxing and keeping cool.
The itineraries can be set to meet everyone’s picture of a perfect holiday. Complementary to diving are surfing, sailing, snorkeling, and stand-up paddleboarding. Guided walks on the local islands are also possible, allowing one to see the notorious Komodo dragon. Komodo offers some of the best diving in the world, with dive sites such as Manta Point, Batu Balong, and Batu Tiga. The reserve is teeming with diversity. Dugongs, manta rays, white-tip reef sharks, and hawksbill turtles are just a few residents. There is also the option to do your advanced diving course on-site.

Diving a lot at a reasonable price
I was able to enjoy a lot of diving casually. There were some points where the current was quite good, there were leisurely points, and there were also places where the water temperature was about 23 degrees Celsius.

Would definitely choose Scuba Republic again
Scuba Republic are a world class group who dive world class sites. The dive masters are from the local area and know the flora and fauna very well. They interacted with the guest and delivered an amazing experience for all on board. There was a variety of dive skill on the boat and the team divided everyone into perfect groups. We were fortunate to see some big fauna including manta rays, however spotting pigmy seashores and orangutan crabs was just as amazing! The team are energetic with a love of underwater adventure. I highly recommend diving Labuan Bajo on a Scuba Republic liveaboard.

- The dive masters took their time with guest explaining the dive sites. The crew delivered delicious food which catered to a celiac, a vegan and a vegetarian each meal.. The boat had a variety of spaces to relax and at max capacity didn't feel crowded at any time..

Transformative trip; extraordinary marine environment, fabulous friendly people -
A transformative experience. The most beautiful environment above and below the water; more fish than I have ever seen before, amazing coral reefs; multiple viewings of the magnificent manta rays and the most friendly, enthusiastic and helpful dive masters and crew you could possibly want. Not to mention the mix of international guests who were all delightful. A total treat. Scuba Republic run a highly professional, safe, affordable and enjoyable diving experience. I had 3 nights/4 days on board Bajak around the Komodo Islands and although I am relatively new to diving with still a lot to learn, and confidence to build, all my needs and concerns were taken care of moment by moment. My dive master was there for me all the way. If the dive was going to be too challenging for me, I would either snorkel or relax on the deck and enjoy the scenery instead. Yunus, the dive director, was not only extremely experienced but a bundle of laughs too. Takim the chef kept us so well fed - it was impossible to resist his delicious food.. the captain knew his boat and the islands, Bajak was well built and comfortable. To my surprise there was even wifi! I was both the granny of the trip – 20-30 yrs older than all the other guests,(!) and the baby in terms of diving experience and I have no hesitation in thoroughly recommending this trip to anyone who is after a unique underwater experience in one of the most beautiful unspoilt areas of the world.

Amazing trip
It was an amazing experience to spend 4 days in Bajak with Scuba Republic. We also completed our advanced open water diver with Franck, the best guide we could have wished for. Very professional and has a great knowledge of everything you need to improve your diving skills. Overall, the crew and also the other guests were really nice and we had an amazing time. Would book it again anytime and can fully recommend it without any doubt
