Private Phinisi Charter Labuan Bajo
Experience the Komodo Islands aboard your own private phinisi, combining traditional Indonesian craftsmanship with comfortable cabins, dedicated crew and the freedom to explore at your own pace.
Cruise through Komodo National Park and discover dramatic islands, white-sand beaches, crystal-clear waters and remarkable marine life, with the flexibility to choose the duration, route and onboard experience that best suits your group.
Your Boat. Your Journey.
A private charter gives your group exclusive use of the phinisi, allowing you to enjoy the Komodo Islands without sharing the boat with other guests. Depending on the vessel and duration, routes can include Padar Island, Pink Beach, Komodo Island, Manta Point, Taka Makassar, Manjarite and other selected locations.

Itinerary
Private Komodo Phinisi Cruise
A suggested three-day private sailing experience from Labuan Bajo through the highlights of Komodo National Park, combining island trekking, snorkeling, beaches, marine life and spectacular sunsets.
Island Trails, Snorkeling & Sunset
Meet your crew at your hotel or the harbour in Labuan Bajo and board your private phinisi. Begin sailing towards Kelor Island for a short trek and panoramic views across the surrounding islands. Continue to Manjarite for snorkeling in clear tropical waters before sailing towards Kalong Island. As the afternoon turns into evening, enjoy the sunset from the boat while thousands of flying foxes leave the mangroves.
Komodo's Iconic Islands & Marine Life
Start early and climb Padar Island for its famous panoramic viewpoint over the three distinctive bays. Continue to Pink Beach for swimming and snorkeling before sailing towards Komodo Island. Join a local ranger for a guided trek in search of Komodo dragons and other wildlife. Continue to Taka Makassar for a swim in the shallow turquoise waters before heading towards Manta Point for snorkeling and the possibility of encountering manta rays.
Final Snorkeling & Return to Labuan Bajo
Enjoy a final morning snorkeling experience around Kanawa or Sebayur Island, depending on sea and weather conditions. Relax onboard while sailing back towards Labuan Bajo. Arrive at the harbour around midday and continue to your hotel or airport for your onward journey.
Your Route, Your Pace
The suggested itinerary can be customized according to your interests, travel dates and preferred pace. Depending on the duration of the charter, you can select approximately three to four destinations per day, with options for additional snorkeling, diving, trekking, beach time or slower sailing.
Flexible Island Sailing
This is a suggested route rather than a fixed schedule. The final itinerary may be adjusted according to weather, sea conditions, tides, National Park regulations and local circumstances. Wildlife encounters, including manta rays and Komodo dragons, are naturally not guaranteed.
