Queenesia II Buginese phinisi under sail at sunset

Cruising Areas

Komodo

Queenesia II runs Komodo itineraries from Labuan Bajo combining northern and central dive sites with Padar, Pink Beach, Komodo dragon trekking and snorkeling. The fleet sample route names Crystal Rock, Castle Rock, Shotgun, Golden Passage, Manta Point, Batu Bolong, Siaba Besar and Mawan.

Raja Ampat

Raja Ampat is where the vessel published departures currently concentrate. The operator sells a seven-day, six-night Central Raja Ampat sailing and a longer eleven-day, ten-night Best of Raja Ampat route, both round trips using the same seven-cabin dive setup with two compressors and a dedicated tender.

Banda Sea

Banda Sea sailings are run as round trips from Ambon over eight days and seven nights, and the vessel also makes a twelve-day, eleven-night Bitung to Ambon crossing. These are expedition-length passages rather than the shorter Komodo circuit, and departures are seasonal.

Who This Suits

Queenesia II is best suited to divers, couples and small groups that want seven private ensuite cabins, individual air conditioning and a dedicated dive setup while still keeping the social feel of a traditional phinisi. The mix of double, sea-view and triple cabins also works well for groups with different room needs.

About This Vessel

Queenesia II is a 32-metre Buginese phinisi built in 2016 for dive-led cruising in Komodo, Raja Ampat and the Banda Sea. Seven individually air-conditioned ensuite cabins accommodate up to 16 guests, with one master cabin, one sea-view double, three additional double cabins and two triple cabins.

The operator equips the boat for scuba diving with 12-litre aluminium tanks, two compressors, a dedicated dive tender, DIN adapters and underwater lights. Safety and navigation equipment includes EPIRB, emergency life rafts, medical oxygen, radar, GPS, depth sounder and satellite phone.

Queenesia II suits divers who want more cabin privacy than a dorm-style expedition boat without moving into superyacht territory. The fleet's Komodo sample itinerary combines northern and central sites such as Crystal Rock, Castle Rock, Shotgun, Golden Passage, Manta Point, Batu Bolong, Siaba Besar and Mawan with Padar, Pink Beach and dragon trekking.

Scuba diving permit	Rp 25,000 ≈ $1	per diver, per day Charged on top of the entrance fee. Snorkelling is not charged separately.
Vessel entry	varies	Assessed on the engine capacity of the boat, so it is normally settled by the operator rather than by passengers.

Booking runs through SIORA, the park's own system, and is handled by a licensed operator before arrival. There is no ticket window at the gate.
A daily cap of 1,000 visitors applies across the park, split between Komodo, Rinca and Padar and the dive sites around them.
Entry runs in sessions rather than all day, which is why a boat's arrival time is set by the park and not by the crew.
A drone permit is separate, expensive, and has to be requested well in advance.
