Sailing in Bali & Indonesia

Settle into your Standard or Superior cabin late afternoon, before setting sail from Serangan Harbour to Sanur Beach, where you’ll enjoy a sumptuous dinner and overnight at anchored at Sanur Beach.

Head over to nearby Nusa Lembongan, a small offshore island with plenty of nautical activities including snorkelling and of course relaxing on the beach. Enjoy dinner and lunch on board and moor up near the island for the night.

A slightly longer, six-hour sail today to the gorgeous Gili Islands - three tiny islands with white sand beaches, fringed with coconut trees and surrounded by turquoise waters. You’ll head to Gili Air which is the smallest, quietest and most welcoming island of the archipelago. Surrounded by coral reefs, the Gilis provide a colourful underwater world with turtles, manta rays, clown fish, and countless species of colourful fish. Gili Air was the first of the Gili islands to be settled by fishing families. Coconut plantations and fishing are still important for the local economy. The beaches here are the best of the Gili bunch! As well as the snorkelling sites they can be easily reached from the shores of the white sandy beaches. Moor here for the night.

Sail over to nearby Gili Meno for a wonderful snorkelling spot where you’ll see countless corals and fish. In the afternoon sail over to the larger island of Lombok, an enchanting island with stunning landscapes, huge bays, fine sandy beaches fringed with coconuts trees and tropical rainforest. Spend the night on board.

Sail down Lombok’s west coast via Poh for a snorkelling session. End the day on Gili Nanggu with a BBQ on the beach.

Sailing along Lombok’s south west coast, you’ll visit other islands for snorkelling. This coast boasts pristine, secluded beaches, tiny offshore islands in the turquoise blue water, pearl farms and old mosques. Then set sail towards Crystal Bay on Nusa Pedina. Here, time seems to stand still, you still see people living very traditional lives. Spend the afternoon in this small and quiet bay with its crystal-clear water. Overnight on board.

After breakfast, depart for Manta Point, a perfect spot for snorkelling with manta rays. Then set sail to Mushroom Bay, so called because of the shape of its corals, and renowned for its white and bright croissant-shaped sandy beach. There is an optional tour here – either by scooter or discover the mangroves by flatboat.
