Luxury Yacht Charter Komodo and Phinisi Cruises Across Indonesia

Our core experience is private yacht charter through Komodo National Park and Raja Ampat, with extended voyages reaching Triton Bay, Kaimana, Alor, Maumere, Cendrawasih Bay and the Spice Islands. A typical Komodo journey blends encounters with wild Komodo dragons on Rinca and Komodo Island, sunrise hikes up Padar, snorkelling at Pink Beach and drift dives around Batu Bolong and Manta Point. In Raja Ampat, charters weave through Misool, Piaynemo, Wayag and Dampier Strait, where roughly 75 percent of the world's coral species thrive in one compact archipelago. Because we own the vessels and operate the entire logistics chain under KomodoExplorer.com, we can adjust routes, meal timings and dive schedules on the water without going through brokers or external crews. That flexibility is why repeat guests use us for honeymoons, family reunions, photography expeditions and long-range voyages where a fixed cruise schedule simply will not fit.

Komodo National Park remains our signature destination, a UNESCO World Heritage Site where ancient dragons share the coastline with iconic Pink Beach, manta cleaning stations and some of Indonesia's most photogenic island silhouettes. North-west of there, Raja Ampat is regarded as the beating heart of the Coral Triangle, with karst islands, hidden lagoons and dive sites that routinely rank among the richest on the planet. For travellers seeking something rarer, Cendrawasih Bay offers year-round whale shark encounters inside Indonesia's largest marine park, while Triton Bay and Kaimana are famous for pygmy seahorses, walking sharks and soft-coral walls. Alor and Maumere reward experienced divers with strong drift dives set against volcanic landscapes, and the historic Spice Islands (Banda) connect world-class diving with the colonial trading history that once drew empires to these waters. Each route can be sailed as a standalone charter or combined into a longer cross-regional expedition.

The fleet includes Lamima, Prana, Silolona, Fenides, Naturalia, Catnazse Liveaboard, Magia II, Ayvara Cruises and Malca Voyages, along with our flagship vessels Komodo Prestige and Komodo Signature. Komodo Prestige is a 66-metre mastless phinisi with 8 ocean-view balcony suites, a sunset-facing Jacuzzi and open decks built for 16 guests, starting from USD 25,000 per night. Komodo Signature pushes the format further at 78.2 metres with 10 private balcony suites for up to 20 guests, a rooftop chill pool and formal indoor dining, from USD 30,000 per night. Across the wider fleet, cabin counts range from 5 to 10, with pricing from USD 13,000 per night for select vessels. All yachts carry professional crews, private chefs and dive guides trained to international superyacht standards, and each hull is maintained in-house so specifications, safety gear and service protocols stay consistent across every voyage.

Our guest list reflects the standard we hold ourselves to. Indonesian celebrity families such as Baim Wong and Paula Verhoeven, and Raffi Ahmad and Nagita Slavina have cruised with us repeatedly, alongside international figures like Russian lifestyle creator Anyuta Rai (3M+ followers), Nikon and Gitzo ambassador photographer Daniel Kordan, and entrepreneur Sergey Solonin. We are a 2025 TripAdvisor Travellers' Choice winner and have been featured on Forbes, Yahoo Finance, CNN, Benzinga, Tempo, IDN Times, Tribun News, The Globe and Mail, Barchart, VOI, Investor ID, Marketers Media, Street Insider and TMX Newsfile, among more than 400 other publications. Guests consistently cite three reasons for returning: expert local captains who read seasonal conditions and reposition the itinerary in real time, seamless service that runs from gourmet dining to private concierge, and the fact that every vessel, crew and operation is handled by a single company rather than a chain of agents.
