A Komodo boat charter, also called a Komodo boat rental or bajo rental, is the rental of a Phinisi sailing yacht, motor yacht, or liveaboard from Labuan Bajo for private or shared cruising through Komodo National Park. Komodo Boat Charter has operated since 2015 with a fleet of vessels, from USD 350 per person (open/shared trip 3D2N) to USD 27,000 per night flagship (Lamima), visiting Padar Island, Komodo Island, Pink Beach, and Manta Point.

Komodo Boat Charter offers private charters from USD 5,300 per night (standard Phinisi) to USD 27,000 per night (Lamima 65m, 7 cabins). Private charters suit families, honeymoons, corporate groups, and photography expeditions.
