    Cruising Areas

    Komodo

    Lipra operates Komodo itineraries from Labuan Bajo, ranging from short private charters to scheduled three-day shared departures. Core stops include Padar, Pink Beach, Komodo Island, Manta Point and Taka Makassar, with Kelor, Manjarite, Kalong, Kanawa, Siaba or Sebayur added according to trip length. Exact sequencing changes with weather, sea conditions and park operations.

    Who This Suits

    Lipra suits couples, families and small groups that want five distinct room categories rather than repeated cabin layouts. The Master and balcony-style premium rooms provide stronger sea-view options, while Suite and Deluxe extra-bed arrangements make the boat practical for families.

    About This Vessel

    Lipra is a 30-metre Komodo phinisi built in 2021 with five air-conditioned guest cabins and a published maximum of 14 guests using extra-bed arrangements. Current specifications list a 5.1-metre beam, six crew, a 6D16 main engine, five tonnes of fuel capacity, five tonnes of fresh-water storage and a cruising speed around 7 to 8 knots. A Yamaha 15 HP speedboat supports shore transfers and snorkeling stops.

    The five physical cabins cover five different room categories. The Master is the premium double room with a private balcony. The Suite sleeps two plus up to two extra guests. The Deluxe sleeps two plus one extra guest and also publishes a balcony. Superior and Studio Ocean View are double rooms with sea views and balcony-style access in current room inventories. All five cabins are air-conditioned and have private bathrooms.

    Lipra is a leisure-focused liveaboard rather than a dedicated dive boat. Published packages include paddleboard use and snorkeling equipment, while typical voyages combine trekking, snorkeling, beach time and wildlife encounters. The boat is sold both on scheduled 3D2N shared departures and as a private charter from 2D1N through longer Komodo itineraries.

    Shared sailings operate on Monday–Wednesday and Friday–Sunday schedules. The standard route combines Kelor, Manjarite and Kalong with Padar, Pink Beach, Komodo Island, Taka Makassar, Manta Point and final snorkeling stops around Kanawa, Siaba or Sebayur depending on trip length and conditions.
