The basic funding for the Park is provided through the Government of Indonesia. These funds, however, are insufficient to meet all the management needs for the Park. Therefore, The Komodo National Park management will conduct an assessment of options for restructuring tourist gate fees and reforming the gate fee distribution system within the park, so that a significant portion of these fees can be channeled directly to Park management support.
The ticket price depends on the day of your trip. Our price does not include the ticket fee because we do not sell the ticket ourselves. It is meant to be purchased directly by the guest(s) on the Komodo National Park’s locket. The price below is the price per person per day.

AM I PHYSICALLY FIT FOR SCUBA DIVING?
Although it is recommended to have a medical test before trying scuba diving, it is not necessary to be super healthy. All scuba divers will need to fill a dive health assessment before they start to dive. If the majority of your answer is “YES” (depending what you answer yes to), then there should be no problem for you to rock scuba diving. One basic skill that you definitely need to have is the ability to swim and float as it is required in the Open Water Swimming Test. For more detail information you can read: http://scuba.about.com/od/learntodive/a/divingfitness.htm
It’s always convenient to have insurance before starting a trip. Especially when you plan on having a diving trip. Make sure your travel insurance can cover for scuba diving activities. There are some Insurance companies especially for diver: DAN, PADI, and IDEC. Make sure to visit their website and to contact them for further information.
