An Authentic Schooner, Not a Party Barge
A phinisi cruise in Bali starts with the scent of sea salt and aged teak. Our two-masted Bugis schooner slips its moorings at Benoa Harbour — a working port since 1924 — and the late-afternoon sun warms the polished ironwood deck as the coastline of Nusa Dua slides past. This is the ship type that carried Indonesia’s archipelago trade for centuries, maintained and crewed the traditional way.
Two experiences anchor the collection: the tranquil elegance of a golden-hour sunset sail along the southern coast, and the full-day crossing to Nusa Penida’s dramatic cliffs and manta-patrolled reefs. Both can be reserved as a shared departure — ideal for couples and small groups — or as an exclusive private charter for celebrations, proposals and corporate events.
Booking is deliberately transparent: you receive a written quotation listing crew, fuel, safety equipment and dining inclusions before any deposit is due. Phinisi Cruise Bali sails as part of Komodo Luxury (PT Komodo Bahari Nusantara), within Juara Holding Group.
