Kanthaka Phinisi Charter in Komodo National Park
Kanthaka Phinisi is a VIP-class boat running private and open-trip charters across Komodo National Park. The vessel measures 33.7 meters long and 6.3 meters wide, fitting 10 to 14 guests in five ensuite cabins named Sagara, Nandini, Jivana, Mihika, and Aruna. It suits family reunions, friend groups, and corporate retreats that need space without jumping to a full VVIP yacht budget. Open-trip rates start from IDR 6,850,000 for the 3D2N itinerary, with private charter available year-round from Labuan Bajo.
Cabins & On-Board Spaces
Kanthaka has five cabins, each with full air conditioning and ensuite bathrooms. The naming scheme (Sagara, Nandini, Jivana, Mihika, Aruna) helps groups coordinate room assignments without relying on generic numbering. Common spaces include an outdoor chill lounge for unwinding between island stops and an indoor lounge with a TV and Bluetooth sound system for evenings or bad-weather afternoons. Starlink WiFi keeps the boat connected even in remote anchorages, which matters for guests who still need to handle quick work or share content in real time. Beach towels, shampoo, and soap come standard in every cabin.
Water Activities & Safety Gear
For guests who want to stay active, Kanthaka carries snorkeling gear, stand-up paddleboards, kayaks, and a water scooter. This range is useful when anchored near Taka Makassar or the shallow reefs of Siaba, where you can switch between kayaking and snorkeling without waiting for a tender. Complimentary mineral water, coffee, and tea run throughout the trip. On the safety side, fire extinguishers and life rafts are kept at designated points, and the crew briefs guests before the first water entry. The combination of indoor comfort and outdoor kit is what places Kanthaka firmly in the VIP tier rather than the Deluxe category.
3D2N Open Trip Itinerary & Destinations
The Kanthaka open trip departs Labuan Bajo on Fridays and covers Kelor Island, Manjarite, Padar Island, Pink Beach, Komodo Island, Taka Makassar, Manta Point, and Kanawa Island. Day 1 pickup at 09:00, then trekking and snorkeling at Kelor and Manjarite before sunset at Kalong Island with the flying foxes. Day 2 is the big day: sunrise Padar hike at 06:00, Pink Beach, dragon trekking on Komodo Island, manta snorkeling at Manta Point, and the Taka Makassar sandbar. Day 3 closes with sunrise, Sebayur snorkeling, and return to Labuan Bajo by lunchtime. Destinations can shift if weather demands it.
What the Package Covers
Included: stay on the boat, premium documentation via drone, GoPro, and mirrorless camera (raw footage only), meals, mineral water, coffee, tea, guide, snorkeling gear, life vests, and transfers within the Labuan Bajo mainland near the harbour. Transfers from other islands or the Manjaga area are not covered. Excluded items are crew gratuities, flight tickets, personal expenses, alcohol and soft drinks, personal snacks, and Komodo National Park entrance fees (subject to government changes).
