What We Offer
Every yacht charter in Indonesia begins with the same foundation: the right yacht, the right season, and a route planned with care. What changes is the style of travel. Some guests want the privacy and flexibility of a full private charter, while others are looking for a family-friendly rhythm, a quieter voyage for two, or a structured cabin departure.

Private Yacht Charters
Private yacht charters in Indonesia offer an experience different to charters anywhere else in the world. Cruising on a traditional Phinisi yacht that is fully crewed and equipped with modern amenities, you will explore the exceptional seascape of Indonesia’s 17,000 islands.

FIT
Cabin Voyages
Cabin voyages, often referred to as FIT travel, allow guests to book an individual cabin on a scheduled yacht departure. You join a fixed itinerary with other travellers, while still experiencing life on board a crewed yacht. This format is well suited to couples, solo travellers, or small groups who want access to Indonesia’s key cruising regions without chartering the full vessel.
Kids-friendly
Family Charters
A family yacht charter is planned around ease, comfort, and flexibility. The daily rhythm can be adjusted for children, with calmer snorkelling sites, shorter water sessions, beach time, earlier meals, and space for rest between activities. This format is particularly well suited to families who want shared time together without the pressure of a fixed schedule. The right yacht and crew make a real difference.
Romantic
Honeymoon Charters
A honeymoon charter is shaped around privacy, tranquillity, and time together. The experience is less about doing everything and more about choosing the right moments such as quiet anchorages, open-air meals, time in the water, and slow evenings on deck. This format works well for couples who want a journey that feels personal without being overly structured.

Frequently Asked Questions
A private yacht charter gives your group exclusive use of the yacht, with flexibility around routing, activities, and daily pace. A cabin voyage allows you to book an individual cabin on a scheduled departure, sharing the yacht and itinerary with a small number of other guests.
Family charters are designed around flexibility and daily rhythm, making it easier to adapt activities and timings for children. The choice of yacht also plays an important role, with factors such as cabin layout, water access, and onboard space helping shape the experience.
No. While many couples travel for honeymoons, these journeys also work well for anniversaries, proposals, or simply travelling together in a quieter and more private setting. The emphasis is on privacy, pace, and shared experiences rather than a specific occasion.
The right yacht depends on group size, preferred activities, cabin configuration, and how you want the journey to feel. Some yachts are better suited to diving and exploration, while others place more emphasis on space, wellness, or family-friendly layouts.
Yes. Cabin voyages, also known as FIT (Free Independent Traveller) departures, allow guests to reserve an individual cabin on selected yachts. These departures follow fixed itineraries and are particularly well suited to couples, solo travellers, or smaller groups.
Most journeys range between 5 and 12 days, depending on the destination and travel style. Regions such as Komodo work well for shorter routes, while Raja Ampat, Triton Bay, or the Banda Sea are generally better experienced over a longer timeframe.
The answer depends on season and travel style. Komodo offers shorter cruising distances and a mix of landscapes and wildlife. Raja Ampat focuses on reefs and island density, while regions such as Cenderawasih Bay, Triton Bay, and the Banda Sea suit guests looking for more remote journeys.
No. Most charters are suitable for mixed groups and can be adapted to different experience levels. Many guests are first-time yacht travellers, and activities such as snorkelling, paddleboarding, beach visits, and guided excursions can be tailored accordingly.
