Charter · One day
Eight to ten hours on the water with the whole boat to yourselves, then back to your villa the same evening. Quality yachts and phinisi-style day cruisers, not party boats.
The routes
We build each charter around sea conditions, the season and how you want to spend the hours: more cruising, more snorkelling, more time ashore, or more time on deck with a drink.
8–10 hrs
The classic Bali day out from Serangan or Benoa: calm anchorages, turquoise bays, snorkelling off the stern ladder, and optional time ashore at a beach club or restaurant. Roughly sixty to ninety minutes each way depending on the yacht and the sea.
Rule of thumb
Departs 08:30–09:30
8–10 hrs
For more adventurous guests, routed via Penida snorkelling spots when conditions allow. Often combined with Lembongan for a balanced day: one or two snorkel stops, lunch at anchor in a sheltered bay, then a relaxed cruise back before sunset.
Rule of thumb
Sea-state dependent
8–9 hrs
From Lombok: a relaxed loop for snorkelling and swimming, turtle spotting off Gili Meno, and lunch on deck at anchor. Often a wander through Gili Trawangan before cruising back towards Senggigi or Teluk Nare.
Rule of thumb
Boards Senggigi, Teluk Nare or Bangsal
8–9 hrs
A shorter cruise hugging the Lombok coastline with snorkel stops, fishing on request and a long lazy lunch at anchor. It works particularly well for mixed-age groups.
Rule of thumb
Best for mixed-age parties
Included
What you actually need for a day at sea, so nothing has to be arranged on the dock.
Available at extra cost
Hotel or villa transfers, a premium bar setup, set-menu upgrades, a private chef, drone or photography coverage, a dive instructor, and celebration décor for engagements and milestone birthdays.
Where it goes further
We generally recommend an 08:30 to 09:30 departure from Serangan or Benoa. Morning seas are calmer, and you are back by late afternoon or golden hour rather than fighting the wind home.
The boats
Every one carries a licensed captain and crew familiar with the water around Nusa Penida, Nusa Lembongan and the Gilis, full safety gear, dry shaded space and fresh water for rinsing.
30–60 ft, 4–12 guests
Fast and comfortable, for guests who want to minimise travel time and maximise stops.
8–20+ guests
Slower than a pure motor yacht, with far more deck space and the traditional wooden lines. Built for a relaxed pace and a long lunch.
2–6 guests
Compact and efficient, for couples, small families or three or four friends. Usually at the lower end of the price range.
Pricing
Not per person. The published guide is $2,000 to $7,000 per day, driven mainly by yacht size, engine type, route, season and any upgrades.
Small
A shorter Bali to Lembongan run, or Senggigi to the Gilis, on standard inclusions.
$2,000–3,000
Mid-range
The band most group enquiries land in, before menu or bar upgrades.
$3,500 guide
Larger
More luxurious vessels, high-season dates, or fuel-heavy custom routing such as extended Nusa Penida.
$5,000–7,000
Indicative only. A proposal confirms the yachts actually free on your date, the port — Serangan or Benoa in Bali; Senggigi, Teluk Nare or Bangsal in Lombok — the final inclusions, and the payment schedule.
Honest fit
You want a luxury boat without sleeping on one; you have limited time in Bali or Lombok but still want to get offshore; you prefer a private environment to a crowded shared day boat; you are marking a birthday, engagement, pre-wedding or corporate reward day; or part of the family likes their hotel bed but still wants to snorkel.
You are hoping to do Komodo in a day — it is not reachable from Bali or Lombok without several days and a multi-day cruise. Or you want intensive scuba, which we can arrange on request but which this product is not designed around. Or you want a loud open-party atmosphere with strangers.
If you want both
Plenty of guests take a day charter early in the trip and a multi-day liveaboard later. We sequence the fast boats, flights and hotel nights so the two do not collide.
Booking
Even a one-day charter is date-sensitive. A window — "any day between the twelfth and the sixteenth" — lets us avoid the windier days and heavy port congestion.
Seminyak, Canggu, Nusa Dua, Jimbaran, Ubud, Senggigi, Gili Trawangan. This decides the practical departure port and the transfer plan.
Adults and children, and how you picture the day: more snorkelling, more cruising, a celebration, or a quiet family day at anchor.
A shortlist with photos, layouts and capacity, plus a realistic eight to ten hour itinerary for the season. Per-boat pricing in USD with the upgrades listed, and a provisional hold while you check with the group.
A deposit moves it from proposal to booking, with the balance closer to sailing according to the yacht's policy. Terms, cancellation conditions and payment methods are stated in the offer.
We reply with concrete yacht options rather than brochure language — if nothing suitable is free on your date, we will say that too.
Between $2,000 and $7,000 per boat per day. Two to six guests on a shorter route sit around $2,000 to $3,000; eight to fourteen guests typically $3,000 to $5,000; larger vessels, peak dates or extended Penida routing move into the $5,000 to $7,000 band.
Eight to ten hours from Bali, eight to nine from Lombok, returning to the same port before nightfall. We usually suggest leaving Serangan or Benoa between 08:30 and 09:30 for calmer morning seas.
Roughly sixty to ninety minutes each way, depending on the yacht and the sea state. Nusa Penida adds to that, which is why we often combine the two rather than choosing one.
Yes — lunch on board as a set menu or shared plates, plus a light breakfast or snack on boarding depending on the departure time. Dietary requests need advance notice.
The crew give basic in-water guiding for less confident swimmers, and there is a swim platform or ladder on every boat. Say so when you book and we will brief the crew.
No. Komodo and Labuan Bajo need several days of travel and a multi-day cruise product. Anyone telling you otherwise is selling you a very long boat ride.
The charter desk
Send those three and we will come back with specific yachts, a realistic route for the season, and per-boat pricing with the upgrades listed rather than buried.
