4th Time Aboard Pelagian

My 4th time on Pelagian and it never disappoints! The nice touch of looking at previous trips and picking new sites to dive was simply the icing on the cake.

Reefs Have Largest Diversity of Fish I have Seen

Wakatobi is an incredible place! The reefs have the largest diversity of fish, invertebrate and coral that I have seen in my lifetime! Pristine!

The Reef Is So Beautiful

The seventy-minute dive is a great part of Wakatobi, except the reef is so beautiful we didn’t want to come up after 70 minutes!

Wakatobi is #1

We’ve dove around the world with many dive operators & resorts and this place is number #1 for service with a large gap between 1st & 2nd.

Wakatobi Is a Step Ahead

I have been lucky enough to travel the world and have been to many top scuba destinations/resorts/liveaboards, but Wakatobi seems to be one step ahead of everyone. Hands down, the best asset to Wakatobi is your team. Everyone! Everyone works so hard and is so professional and polite. The resort is beautiful, the food is terrific, and Wakatobi is so well-managed. A big thank you to the management for making this place what it has become. I came to dive and couldn’t have been happier with my guide. He was kind, professional, clear with his briefing, and the dive plan. He identified many different species of fish and critters. He has an excellent eye, and I am amazed by what he can find. He respected my dive experience and allowed me to have some space all while keeping a close eye on me. I really enjoyed diving with him— I hope to come back to Wakatobi and dive with him again! Really and truly, all the staff is excellent.

All of the restaurant staff, the grounds staff, the porters, the security team, housekeeping, the amazing boat captains, and dive & boat teams. But we divers come to dive, and the guides are truly special to us. Thank you so much to everyone. I will miss all of these wonderful smiling faces. Thank you, thank you, thank you! This is only my second time coming to Wakatobi, and I can see why you have so many repeating guests.

Wakatobi Took Care of Everything

Leave your everyday worries behind at the jetty and let yourself be carried away by the waves and the loving care of all the resort staff. We had a very relaxing vacation here. The loving and attentive staff at Wakatobi Dive Resort took care of everything.

Outstanding Service & Special Romantic Dinner

We would like to extend our heartfelt thanks to the entire Wakatobi staff for their attentiveness and for always being ready to assist us with every need. We deeply appreciated the wonderful diving experiences as well as the special romantic dinner arranged for Marta, my dear wife’s birthday. A very special thanks to our private dive guide for her care and professionalism, and the restaurant manager for his outstanding service. Our Bungalow was spacious, spotless and tastefully furnished and had a great ocean view.

Heaven On Earth

Great staff on all levels from boat captain, dive masters, to cooks & wait staff to grounds’ keepers. This location is like heaven on earth for divers & vacationers. Everyday is filled with different dive sites & you never know what you are going to see—but it will be amazing!

The Best of the Best Species & Coral

I am new to Indonesia. I am from New York City, so this trip is much longer than usual. Wakatobi is the deepest part of the coral triangle—I will continue to dive close to the US—but here on Sulawesi, you will find the best of the best marine species & coral in the world!
