Explore Indonesia
Situated off the coast of West Papua, Raja Ampat is a chain of 1,500 jungle-clad islands with limestone cliffs, white sand beaches and luminous turquoise seas. Known as one of the most biodiverse marine regions on earth, its reefs host an extraordinary variety of coral and fish.
Days unfold between quiet bays, sweeping coral gardens and karst peaks that offer panoramic views across the archipelago. Even above the waterline, the landscapes feel wild, sculptural and untouched, with hidden coves and lagoons only accessible by tender.
Private yacht routes here often extend into neighbouring regions such as Maluku, Triton Bay and Cenderawasih, revealing remote anchorages, serene beaches and moments of deep stillness in one of Indonesia’s most remarkable frontiers.
Situated east of Bali and Sumbawa, Komodo National Park is a rugged chain of islands shaped by volcanic ridges, pink-sand beaches and clear, dramatic seas. Home to the famed Komodo dragon, this UNESCO-listed region offers landscapes that feel raw, ancient and untamed.
Above water, rolling hills, savannah grasslands and quiet inlets create a shifting palette of ochres and greens. Beneath the surface, nutrient-rich currents support manta rays, coral gardens and thriving marine life, making Komodo one of Indonesia’s most varied cruising grounds.
Private yacht journeys here unfold between secluded bays, sunset ridges and remote dive sites, often combining nearby regions such as Sumbawa or Flores. Anchorages are peaceful, the scenery cinematic, and the sense of remoteness unmistakable.
The Spice Islands, known historically as the Moluccas, sit at the crossroads of ancient trade routes and early maritime exploration. Once the world’s only source of nutmeg and cloves, these islands retain a rich cultural legacy shaped by sultans, traders and centuries of seafaring.
The landscapes are gentle and green, with quiet villages, preserved forts and volcanic silhouettes rising over sheltered bays. Coral reefs ring many of the smaller isles, offering warm, clear waters that feel far from the bustle of modern Indonesia.
Yacht itineraries through Maluku often include Banda, Kei or Seram, unfolding between cinnamon-coloured coastlines, historic anchorages and reefs alive with colour. It is a region where history, and natural beauty meet in a way that feels timeless.
West Papua stretches along the far eastern edge of Indonesia, a land of immense cultural and ecological diversity. Its coastline weaves through jungle-clad peninsulas, river deltas and remote island chains, offering a sense of scale and wildness found in few other places.
Inland, dense forests shelter ancient traditions, distinctive art forms and communities whose lives remain closely tied to their environment. Along the coast, limestone cliffs, mangroves and hidden bays create a dramatic setting for exploration by sea.
Private yacht journeys often extend through Cenderawasih Bay, Triton Bay or the remote Bird’s Head Peninsula, revealing whale sharks, karst islands and quiet waters ideal for long, unbroken days on the ocean. West Papua remains one of Indonesia’s most stirring and untouched frontiers.
Guest Testimonials
"Yes, Raja Ampat is beautiful, of course, but the crew's smiles, your energy, your service, vacation, and your joyfulness made it. We will keep them in our hearts and memories and always appreciate this wonderful week for as long as we go!!!"
Guillermo, Mexico
"The boat, the crew, the diving, the service, the crew, the Komodo islands. We will definitely come back for Raja Ampat one day."
Anton, Spain
"You do this beautiful boat and national treasure justice. Every massage, meal, and outing was perfect, and everyday you surprised us with new delights. Our clothes were perfectly folded, our eggs perfectly cooked, and our scuba gear perfectly set up day after day. I speak for the group when I say that seeing the whale sharks is probably the most novel and cool thing I’ve ever done. Thank you for sharing your country and this boat with us. You made it so hard to leave."
John, USA
"Of course the place is in itself absolutely beautiful, but I think what made it one of the best trips of my life was the crew. Every single one of them was very kind and very good at their job. Everything was extremely efficient and organized."
Rodolfo, Mexico
"Thank you so much for everything, from the scuba dives to the beach setup and our very special last night. The meals were delicious as well. I will miss the ‘welcome back’ from the crew every time we came back to the boat.”
Scott, USA
"Had such a wonderful time creating long lasting memories & being able to call the way my home for the week. Wouldn’t have been possible without such an awesome crew – thank you for making this trip so magical for us.”
Alex, USA
"From snorkelling with manta rays, wakeboarding, peaceful kayaks and an endless, beautiful sea we couldn't have asked for anything more. Your exceptional hospitality aboard the boat was out of this world. The beach BBQ was a night to remember and the Gilligan men sang ‘Leaving on a Jet Plane’ and will be our holiday theme tunes. A special boat, a special crew. We hope to make Mischief again one day!!"
Lisa, UK
"Thank you so much for making these days so wonderful and for making Clement’s 40th so memorable! Every single one of you did such an amazing job – every bit of our experience with you was perfect – the food, the drinks, the diving, the hiking, the room, the boat! You are a dream team!"
Clement, France
"The diving was such an incredible experience – we can’t believe all the underwater wildlife we saw. And the dragons were mind blowing. The crew is what made this such a special trip. Whatever we needed appeared before we realized we needed it!"
Bert, USA
We are so grateful for your sincere hospitality - each team member played such a special and important role to keep us safe, well-fed, relaxed and ready for ADVENTURE! Raja Ampat is beautiful above and below the water, but it’s the team that made our trip truly unforgettable. We will cherish this memories for the rest of our lives and cannot wait to bring our friends, family and children one day.
Grant, USA
We had the most incredible charter.....the boat and crew were just brilliant and everyone has left saying it’s without doubt the best holiday of all time! What a wonderful way for us to celebrate our 50th birthdays together and so a big thank you to you all for making it happen so smoothly. Rich, thank you for planning the perfect itinerary... your film will be a treasure for us all in years to come. Thanks again and hopefully we can book another one soon.
Charlie, UK
Raja Ampat was divine place with mind-blowing nature!
K Group
We loved every minute of our cruise with Alexa, it was the perfect combination of excitement and relaxation. We were grateful for this beautiful experience and would happily rate the trip six out of five stars, thank you for making it possible.
T Couple
Truthfully, it was a great trip – the team on board were wonderful.
B Family
What a fabulous team and boat. Everything was perfect… really beyond fault. We were completely inspired by the cruise director, I felt like I had known him for years. He made everyone feel that it was their boat and no request was too much. It was so fabulous that we are planning to take it next year with family. Thank you.
N Family & Friends
It was a fabulous trip aboard Prana and the crew did their level best to ensure we were pampered throughout.
S Family
The crew is second to none. Very thoughtful, responsive, professional, fun, and always going above and beyond to please. Just trust the experts and enjoy the ride – Raja Ampat is a big area and I really get the sense from speaking with other travelers that we got to all the best spots. The boat is truly a work of art and a joy to be on. This was even better than we imagined and while it was supposed to be a once in a lifetime trip, we are seriously considering coming back to see another region.
Mark, USA
We felt a little emotional saying goodbye. My daughter’s boyfriend proposed during the cruise, and they had a special engagement party for them, complete with costumed Balinese dancing and music. The last night we had a barbecue on the beach, and some of the staff entertained us with guitars and singing, the 'Lamima band'.
Laura, USA
I have experienced a good number of dive boats and I can honestly say Fenides was the best. The crew were really excellent. Dom ran the ship and the whole cruise with great skill and good humour.
Dominic, London
We consider ourselves fairly demanding and I can tell you there is nothing these guys can do to improve the experience... We are determined to get back on board in the future, probably next in Komodo but will surely be back to Raja Ampat.
Valerie, London
