Raja Laut, Labuan Bajo

The Raja Laut is a popular, large, privately chartered yacht combining practicality and comfort. It is one of the more spacious yachts Experience Travel offers with each of the six double or twin cabins having their en suite for privacy, hence a great boat to charter for those travelling in larger groups. With a luxurious timber interior and subtle ethnic accents, the lower deck is elegant and functional, with a communal lounge area for those wanting to escape the sun.

The majestic 31-metre white schooner Raja Laut offers a wide range of itineraries throughout Indonesia. Destinations for this six birth boat include Bali, Komodo National Park and Nusa Tenggara, though ultimate freedom to design routes lies with the guests of this privately chartered boat.

The vast upper deck offers plenty of sun loungers, seats and hammocks to take in the views, with a detachable canopy offering the option of shade. On this deck is the inside dining room where guests may eat from an extensive menu of Western, Asian and Fusion cuisines. Fresh fish caught directly from the boat often proves a popular choice for guests, though the chef will always tailor his menu to the client’s tastes.

Cruises orientated around culture, wildlife or scuba diving are available from the Raja Laut. Guests may also go swimming, snorkelling, fishing and diving amongst Indonesia’s impressive marine ecosystems, guided by Raja Laut’s full-time PADI dive instructor.
