Cruising Areas

Komodo

Komodo National Park out of Labuan Bajo, on charters of one to five nights. Pick-up runs eight to ten in the morning. The 3D2N route takes Kelor for the trek and Manjarite to snorkel on day one, closing at Kalong for the flying foxes; Padar at first light on day two, then Pink Beach, the Komodo Island dragon trek, Taka Makassar and Manta Point; Kanawa on the final morning, back in port by eleven. Longer charters add Bidadari as an optional first stop, Rinca in place of or alongside Komodo Island, and Siaba and Sebayur across the extra days.

Who This Suits

Suits: groups looking for a choice of trip lengths and ten separate cabins. The private rate card extends from 2D1N to 6D5N.

Also works for: couples seeking a balcony and bathtub in the Bira or Tana Beru cabin, and families considering Wajo for three guests.

Consider before booking: most cabins accommodate two. Confirm the room allocation for families and larger groups. No dedicated dive centre or compressor is documented.

About This Vessel

Carnaby 02 is a 32-metre phinisi carrying twenty-one guests across ten cabins, and every one of those cabins is named after a town in South Sulawesi. Two of them, Bira and Tana Beru, are the master cabins on the upper deck, and they share their names with the yards where phinisi hulls are still shaped by hand on the beach. Bulukumba, the regency those yards sit in, names a third.

The layout runs across three levels. Bira and Tana Beru sit on the upper deck with double beds, ocean views and private balconies with bathtubs. Takalar, Bantaeng and Bulukumba occupy the middle grade. Gowa, Maros, Sinjai and Bone are the four superior cabins on the lower deck, each with a double bed and ensuite bathroom. Wajo, also lower deck, is the family cabin and the only one taking three guests. All ten have air conditioning and hot and cold showers.

Deck space is unusually well equipped for a 32-metre hull: a jacuzzi on deck, a sundeck with sunbeds and beanbags, an outdoor dining area, an indoor lounge with TV and karaoke, and BBQ equipment. Starlink covers the boat, and water toys include a paddleboard and a transparent canoe.

Mechanically she runs a Mitsubishi 8DC11 at six to ten knots with a four-cylinder 120 PS generator, carrying four tons of fuel against twelve tons of fresh water. She is one of the few boats in this directory listing CCTV monitoring among her safety equipment, alongside life rafts, buoys, jackets, extinguishers, GPS, and marine and HF radios with distress signal. A speedboat handles transfers and island excursions.

Komodo National Park Fees

What you pay	Amount	Basis
Park entrance, foreign visitor	Rp 250,000 ≈ $14	per person, per visit Identical on weekdays and public holidays. Already includes trekking, wildlife observation and snorkelling inside the park.
Park entrance, Indonesian visitor, weekday	Rp 50,000 ≈ $3	per person, per visit Raised from Rp 35,000 in October 2024.
Park entrance, Indonesian visitor, weekend or public holiday	Rp 75,000 ≈ $4	per person, per visit The holiday uplift applies to the Indonesian rate only.
Park entrance, Indonesian student group	Rp 25,000 ≈ $1	per person, per day Group bookings only.
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.

Statutory rates set by Peraturan Pemerintah No. 36 Tahun 2024, in force since 30 October 2024. Checked 25 August 2026. Amounts are payable in rupiah; dollar figures are converted at Rp 17,900 and rounded. A rise in the foreign rate was under government review in April 2026 and had not taken effect.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why are the cabins named after towns?

They are all places in South Sulawesi, the home of phinisi shipbuilding. Bira and Tana Beru are the two beaches where the hulls are still shaped by hand without formal drawings, and Bulukumba is the regency that contains them. The rest, Takalar, Bantaeng, Gowa, Maros, Sinjai, Bone and Wajo, are neighbouring regencies.

Which cabins have a balcony?

Two: Bira and Tana Beru, the master cabins on the upper deck. Both have a private balcony with a bathtub and an ocean view. No other cabin on board has outdoor space of its own.

Can three people share a cabin?

Only in Wajo, the family cabin on the lower deck. Every other cabin takes a maximum of two. That single triple is what takes the boat from twenty berths to a stated capacity of twenty-one.

How does the price change with trip length?

For one to twelve guests, the published private rate starts at about $4,915 for 2D1N and reaches about $10,170 for 6D5N. Those are whole-trip, whole-vessel totals; the package price changes with duration.

How much does a bigger group cost?

For 3D2N, the published totals are approximately $6,145 for 1–12 guests, $6,760 for 13–16, and $7,375 for 17–21. Ask for a quote matching your exact dates and group size.

What is on deck?

A jacuzzi, a sundeck with sunbeds and beanbags, an outdoor dining area, an indoor lounge with TV and karaoke, and BBQ equipment. Water toys are a paddleboard and a transparent canoe, and Starlink covers the boat.

Is there diving on board?

No dive centre, compressor or dive guide is listed, and no dive package is sold. Snorkelling equipment is included and Manta Point appears on the itinerary as a snorkelling stop. A speedboat handles transfers and island excursions.

What safety equipment does she carry?

Life jackets, lifebuoys and a life raft, fire extinguishers, GPS navigation, marine and HF radios with a distress signal, and CCTV monitoring. The CCTV is unusual: very few boats in this directory list it.
