Introduction to Phinisi Charters

Phinisi ships are traditional Indonesian two-masted sailing vessels originating from the Bugis and Makassar people of South Sulawesi. These grand wooden ships have been used for centuries for trade and maritime exploration. Today, they have been repurposed for tourism, offering a unique way to explore Indonesia’s archipelago. Combining traditional craftsmanship with contemporary amenities, these vessels serve as comfortable floating hotels, offering both short and extended trips.

Zeroemissionphinisi offers an eco-friendly take on this traditional vessel, integrating sustainable technologies to minimize environmental impact. Our phinisi charters provide modern comforts, including air-conditioned cabins, gourmet dining, and on-board entertainment, ensuring a comfortable and environmentally conscious sailing experience. Our commitment to sustainability doesn’t compromise the authenticity or luxury of the experience. With prices starting at USD 1,200 per night, our charters ensure value while maintaining quality and comfort.

The Komodo National Park Experience

Komodo National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage site, is located in Indonesia’s Lesser Sunda Islands. It encompasses several islands, including Komodo, Rinca, and Padar, and is renowned for its population of the Komodo dragon, the world’s largest lizard. Beyond the dragons, the park is a haven for biodiversity, featuring a lively marine ecosystem with over 1,000 species of fish, 260 species of reef-building coral, and various species of sharks, rays, and sea turtles.

Sailing through Komodo National Park on a phinisi allows for an intimate connection with this unique environment. Our sample bookings include stops at popular dive sites such as Batu Bolong and Manta Point, where guests can snorkel or dive to experience the underwater wonders. The park’s terrestrial landscapes offer hiking opportunities with spectacular views, particularly from the summit of Padar Island. Visitors can also experience the serene beauty of the park during the dry season from April to November, which is ideal for exploring both land and sea due to its calm weather conditions.
