Island-Hopping in East Indonesia

Explore the pristine natural environments and biodiversity of the Coral Triangle while sailing in absolute luxury.

With over 17,500 islands in the Indonesian archipelago, the country has no shortage of beaches. From the picture-perfect savannahs of Komodo to the breathtaking rice fields of Bali, there’s something new to discover on every shore aboard Aqua Blu’s cruises to Bali and the Komodo Islands.


The westernmost of the Lesser Sunda Islands, Bali is less than half the size of Hawaii but has won countless awards as a top-notch destination. With its pristine white beaches, technicolor sunsets, and numerous adventure activities, there is something for every kind of traveler. This region is best explored aboard the Aqua Blu, one of the best cruises Bali has seen.


On this itinerary, Aqua Blu sets off for the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Komodo National Park, an incredible natural wonder spanning 669 square miles. It comprises three main islands — Komodo, Padar and Rinca — and 26 smaller islets best relished aboard. Several of these are inhabited by prehistoric creatures such as the native Komodo Dragon – the largest lizard species walking the Earth.

Best time to visit Bali and the Komodo Islands

While Bali and the Komodo Islands enjoy warm, tropical climates year-round, the seasons shape both the landscapes and experiences. From Komodo dragon encounters to world-class diving and snorkeling, each month offers something unique. The dry season from April to September is ideal for exploration — clear skies, calm seas, and vibrant marine life make it the perfect time to sail these storied isles.
