Neomi is a spacious and beautifully built Phinisi-style liveaboard offering high-quality diving cruises across Indonesia. Designed for comfort, safety, and outstanding dive experiences, this large wooden vessel blends traditional Indonesian craftsmanship with modern facilities. Neomi stands out for the amount of space available to guests, the relaxed onboard atmosphere, and the well-organised diving operations that suit both experienced divers and those newer to liveaboard holidays.
The boat is approximately 47 metres long and has 10 comfortable guest cabins for up to 20 passengers. Each cabin features individually controlled air conditioning and a private en-suite bathroom with hot water. Beds are large, the rooms feel open rather than cramped, and there is plenty of storage for bags and personal belongings. Several cabins are located on the main and upper decks, with private balconies that offer excellent sea views and allow guests to enjoy fresh air and quiet moments throughout the trip. The master cabin is especially spacious and includes extra facilities, making it popular with couples who want a more luxurious experience.
Neomi’s social spaces are generous, meaning guests never feel crowded. The air-conditioned indoor salon and dining area is a comfortable place to cool down between dives. Here you can enjoy meals, watch movies, review photos, or simply relax with a drink. The outdoor decks provide shaded seating, loungers for sunbathing, and two jacuzzis where guests can unwind while taking in views of remote islands, calm bays, and sunsets. Whether you enjoy conversation and laughter with other guests or prefer quiet corners to read and rest, there is always a space to suit your mood.
Diving with Neomi is smooth and well-organised, ideal for those who want to explore Indonesia’s top diving destinations such as Raja Ampat, Komodo, the Banda Sea, and Alor. These regions are famous for their rich marine biodiversity, vibrant coral reefs, manta cleaning stations, reef sharks, large schools of fish, and some of the world’s best macro life. A spacious dive deck, individual gear setup stations, dedicated camera room, nitrox availability, and two fast tenders make dive operations safe, efficient, and comfortable. The dive guides are knowledgeable, experienced, and enthusiastic about marine life, helping guests get the most out of every dive.
Meals on board are freshly prepared and varied, offering a mix of Indonesian dishes and international favourites. Snacks and refreshments are available throughout the day, and dietary needs can be accommodated with prior notice. The friendly crew create a welcoming and relaxed environment and are always ready to help, whether assisting with dive gear, serving meals, or preparing hot drinks after a night dive.
Neomi is an excellent choice for divers seeking a comfortable, well-run liveaboard in Indonesia, offering high standards without being overly formal. With spacious cabins, good service, beautiful dive sites, and a calm, friendly atmosphere, it’s easy to settle in and enjoy every moment both above and below the water. Whether your focus is underwater photography, marine life encounters, or simply disconnecting and enjoying the ocean, Neomi provides the ideal setting for a memorable liveaboard adventure in Indonesia.
