My husband and I recently returned from another fantastic trip on Pindito. This was our third time on board and we have already booked a fourth trip. Always consummate professionals, the Pindito team can be relied upon to make your experience a fantastic, easy and fun one. Nothing is ever too hard, they bend over backwards to make life easy and comfortable. Your gear is always ready, well looked after and where it needs to be. The food is amazing too. The captain always makes safety his priority which means sometimes plans have to change due to unforeseeable weather but there is always a great alternative available, such is the amazing underwater diversity of Indonesia. Love the boat, can’t wait to get back there.

Raja Ampat is an incredible destination! I felt like a brand new diver there, you know back when you had no idea which was what? The marine bio-diversity is limitless. I saw my first hammerhead shark, observed dozens of manta rays dancing together, saw countless sea horses and many new kind of nudibranchs. Forget about the 500 previous dives, the 30 dives I had there were the most fabulous ever. Okay, I have to admit that a few were more challenging. The current can be harsh sometimes but the guides are great, they know the area and they warn you and give you tips so you can be efficient underwater. It was perfect! Thank you to the Pindito team for the awesome journey

You really make it seem so easy with your presentation but I
find this topic to be actually something that I think I would never understand.
It seems too complex and very broad for me. I’m looking forward for your next post,
I’ll try to get the hang of it!

Our second diving escapade in Raja ampat proved to be so much better, and more riveting! The diversity of marine life in this place is really remarkable. This is the first time that I boarded Pindito, and it was a wonderful liveaboard experience. I liked the layout of the boat. The cabins were also impeccably clean and organized. The dive deck has massive space. I was given a large box for my gear, in which I can keep for the entire trip. When it was my time to dive, the crew took my gear to the speed boat. You don’t need to worry about your gear for they were very good in handling any equipment. After diving, they also assisted me in bringing my gear back to the deck. I really appreciated it. Sometimes, long hours of diving could be physically tiring for woman, like me.
In addition, the crew and staff of MV Pindito were smiling, friendly and thoughtful. They catered to our every whim that I felt they’re spoiling us too much! Haha. The dive team was also cognizant and informative. We gathered a lot of facts and data from them that were very important to enhance our diving experience. And did I mention that the local Indonesian cuisine was mind-blowing? Yes! The chef was talented. He can creatively cook a lot of dishes.
Another thing that I’m grateful about Pindito is that they really care for their customers. Making things easier and more convenient for their guests is their utmost priority. On the day that we’re about to leave, the hard-working dive guides, Johannes and Rafael, took our luggage to the Sorong airport and checked in, on behalf of us. It really saved us a lot of time. So instead of waiting around and getting bored in the airport, I was able to stay on the dive boat and spent the last few hours taking in the beauty of Raja Ampat, one last time. Thanks Edi, for sharing your great liveaboard, Pindito, with us and for making our diving adventure fun and awesome!
