The Maj Oceanic Liveaboard: VVIP Phinisi Charter in Raja Ampat
The Maj Oceanic runs a full Raja Ampat liveaboard program from its classic Phinisi hull, hosting up to 12 guests in 6+1 resort-style suites. The 2026 Raja Ampat rate is USD 14,000 per night plus 12% VAT, which reflects longer transits, remote anchorages, and the extended dive reach across Dampier Strait, Misool, and Wayag. Boat Komodo Trip manages charters for private groups covering 8 to 12-night expeditions, with full dive equipment, Phinisi comfort, and an onboard masseuse included in the package.
Raja Ampat Program and Route Notes
The Maj Oceanic liveaboard typically runs 8D7N, 9D8N, and 12D11N Raja Ampat itineraries, starting and ending in Sorong. The boat reaches central Raja Ampat anchorages around Mansuar, Penemu, and Arborek, as well as far-north Wayag or southern Misool depending on trip length. For shorter 8D7N packages, guests depart one day after the trip ends, while longer 9D8N to 12D11N packages allow same-day departure. Recommended Sorong-area pre- and post-stay hotels include Koprak Resort, D Coral Paradise Resort, and Meridian. Rescheduling inside 15 days of departure may require guests to cover preparation costs charged by the owner.
Suites, Layout, and Onboard Spaces
Accommodation is arranged across three suite categories: Admiral Suite, Commodore Suite, and Deluxe Stateroom, for a total of 6+1 cabins serving 12 guests. The Gadjah Mada main-deck lounge and dining room features a large copper bas-relief depicting iconic maritime scenes, and serves as the central gathering space between dives. Shaded fore and aft lounges give guests calm zones to relax, while the top deck hosts an equatorial golf area using biodegradable ecoballs. An outdoor jacuzzi sits on the 360-degree sundeck, and an indoor camera station lounge supports divers editing footage between sessions.
Diving and Water Sports in Raja Ampat
The Maj Oceanic is set up for serious diving, with full scuba equipment, tender support, and a dedicated dive master included for certified divers. Surface water sports include stand-up paddleboards, a wakeboard, waterski, and sea kayaks. Raja Ampat dive sites reachable on a standard itinerary include Cape Kri, Mioskon, Blue Magic, Manta Sandy, and, for longer trips, Misool's southern walls or Wayag's karst lagoons. Tank fills use standard nitrox-to-air mixes, and custom gas blending is only permitted for guests with valid certification. Dive insurance is mandatory for every certified diver onboard.
