Ta'a Dive ResortResort

Ta'a Dive Resort works out of Labuan Bajo, the gateway to Komodo National Park, and it is open only to guests staying at Ta'aktana, A Luxury Collection Resort & Spa. Every trip is tailored: manta rays at Manta Point, the busy reefs of Batu Bolong, or reef sharks at a local shark point. The guides also like to try quieter sites away from the crowds.

Trips run on the resort's own dive vessels, and snorkel outings suit non-diving companions. The source describes April to November as the dry season, with calm seas and good visibility, and December to March as the wet season, when mantas gather in large numbers.

The team speaks English, Spanish, French, Mandarin and Indonesian, and runs conservation programs.
