Your sailing trip

The benign climate, superb sailing conditions, more than 10,000 uninhabited islands and the gradually emerging political stability of the area give Indonesia enormous potential for yachting tourism.

Indonesia is the world’s largest island archipelago. The 17,000 islands of Indonesia stretch in a vast 5200km crescent shaped sweep from Sumatra in the Indian Ocean to Halmahera in the Pacific. The number of islands that makes up Indonesia almost defies comprehension – if you started visiting Indonesian islands tomorrow at a rate of 1 island each day then it would take you until the year 2056 to get round them all.

Cruise activities and tips

Travel activities

Cruise activity Indonesia Fishing

Indonesia Fishing

Sadly many of the more populated parts of Indonesia have been destroyed by dynamite fishing. However, with 17,000 islands spread over such a vast area there are still many parts of Indonesia that have have thriving fish populations and enormous fish. In this environment is is essential to fish responsibly. We keep small numbers of fish for eating but the majority of fish we catch are returned to the ocean unharmed.

Cruise activity Indonesia Scuba Diving

Indonesia Scuba Diving

While many countries use the rather tired cliché of “the best diving in the world” in their tourist literature, Indonesia can reasonably and quietly lay claim to this title. The “Raja Ampat” National Park in West Papua is considered by Conservation International as having the highest marine diversity on the planet and this view is also supported by National Geographic magazine. Komodo, Sulawesi, Alor, Wetar and the Banda islands are equally spectacular for underwater explorers. Indonesia’s diving potential has hardly been scratched – there are thousands of offshore reefs, volcanoes, pinnacles and seamounts that have never been dived before. Even experienced divers will find themselves excitedly paging through reference books trying to figure out what they have just seen underwater. Asia is fully equipped for Scuba diving for up to 8 guests. Scuba diving is charged at Euro 40 per diver per dive. This is structured so guests have the flexibility to decide during their charter how much they wish to dive. Guests only need to bring along proof of dive qualification for insurance purposes and their own dive computer/watch. Each dive is led by a highly experienced and knowledgeable dive leader. We take great pride in the quality and safety of our dive operation which is why we are repeatedly chosen by the UNDP / GEF for their remote area dive survey charters in South East Asia. We provide excellent surface support, full DAN safety equipment aboard the yacht and an emergency deploy buoy for each diver.

Cruise activity Indonesia Surfing

Indonesia Surfing

The next landmass south of Indonesia is the Antarctic. From June to September each year huge winter storms thousands of miles away in the Southern Ocean generate enormous swell that breaks on Indonesia’s south and west facing shorelines. This large swell arriving from almost the opposite direction to the prevailing wind creates magnificent conditions for surfing. The Mentawai islands, Sumatra and the Nusa Tenggara islands of Bali, Lombok and Sumbawa are now famous for their great surfing. Further afield, Doa, Raidjua and Halura are less well known islands that offer world class surfing. As with everywhere else in Indonesia, arriving by yacht allows you to get to places that others can only dream of.

Travel organizer tips

How to get to Indonesia ?
Indonesia is well linked with a network of domestic and international airports. The primary points of entry are Bali, Jakarta and Manado. Domestic flights within Indonesia are operated by: Merpati,Garuda,Trigana Air, Indonesia Indonesia Air Transport, Lion Air
Private Charter Flight

Many of the above commercial flight operators frequently have delays, cancellations or overbook the aircraft. Most domestic flights also only offer tourist class seats.

For reliable, efficient and VIP service within Indonesia it is worth considering a private aircraft charter. This also ensures you fly exactly when you want to instead of lengthy waits at airports.
Visas
All visitors to Indonesia require tourist visas. The nationals of 63 countries are granted 30 day visas on arrival. All other nationalities need to apply in advance to an Indonesian Embassy or Consulate.

See the Indonesia Embassy website for detailed information.
