Yacht & Diving Expeditions — Komodo & Raja Ampat

A Once-in-a-Lifetime Voyage

Somewhere East of Bali

Somewhere east of Bali, where the Flores Sea turns impossibly blue, lies a scattering of islands unlike anywhere else on Earth. Prehistoric dragons patrol savannah hillsides, manta rays glide over coral gardens, and pink-sand beaches meet water so clear it barely seems to exist.

Exclusive Partnership

Our Partnership with David Curic

At the heart of this collection is our exclusive partnership with David Curic — a seaman in the truest sense of the word. Originally from Sweden, David has spent more than 20 years as a cruise director and expedition leader across the Indonesian archipelago, making him one of the most experienced western mariners in these waters.

Having managed some of Indonesia's largest and most luxurious Phinisi yachts, he is a dive master with over 6,000 dives, fluent in Bahasa Indonesia, and deeply versed in crew management and safety protocols.

"What this means is simple: you are sailing with someone who has built boats, dived the sites, and charted the waters. Itineraries flex with the tides, manta activity, and your mood."
