Komodo Itinerary Highlights Aboard Supraba

A typical charter itinerary aboard the Luxury phinisi Supraba showcases the best of Komodo National Park. Day one begins with embarkation in Labuan Bajo, where you’ll meet our 10-person crew before setting sail toward the islands. Your voyage includes visits to Rinca Island and Padar Island, where guided treks reveal dramatic landscapes and abundant wildlife. The crew’s expertise ensures safe navigation through the archipelago’s renowned waters.

The signature Komodo Island trek allows close encounters with the famous Komodo dragons in their natural habitat. Expert guides accompany all excursions, providing wildlife commentary and ensuring safety while you photograph these prehistoric creatures. Your Supraba itinerary also features Pink Beach, famous for its rosy-hued sands created by red coral fragments. Sunset at Kalong Island offers a magical spectacle as thousands of fruit bats take flight, creating a breathtaking natural display above the water.

Additional highlights include Manta Point, where seasonal visits may reward you with encounters with graceful manta rays gliding through clear waters. Snorkeling at pristine locations like Kanawa and Bidadari islands reveals vibrant coral gardens teeming with tropical fish. The Supraba is perfectly positioned to access these varied attractions, with 6 cabins accommodating up to 12 guests across an intimate and luxurious setting.

Dining & Onboard Experience

Dining aboard Supraba celebrates Indonesian culinary traditions alongside international favorites, curated by our experienced galley team. Breakfast features fresh tropical fruits, artisanal breads, and local specialties. Lunch typically showcases seafood caught daily, prepared al fresco on deck as you cruise past dramatic shorelines. Dinner becomes a social highlight, with multi-course meals served either on the upper deck under the stars or in the main dining salon, depending on weather and your preference.

The onboard bar service keeps signature cocktails and refreshments flowing throughout your charter. Our crew of 10 professionals delivers impeccable service while maintaining the relaxed atmosphere essential to tropical yacht living. The Supraba’s social spaces encourage gatherings—upper decks offer unobstructed ocean views perfect for sunset cocktails, while shaded areas provide respite during the heat of midday. Evening entertainment ranges from stargazing to live music, creating memories that extend far beyond the voyage.

Diving & Snorkeling from Supraba

Komodo’s underwater world ranks among Indonesia’s finest diving destinations, and Supraba provides direct access to world-class dive sites. Batu Bolong rises dramatically from the seabed, creating a natural underwater cleaning station where sharks, rays, and reef fish congregate. Castle Rock challenges experienced divers with currents and encounters with pelagics, while Crystal Rock reveals intricate coral formations and abundant macro life. These sites showcase water temperatures ranging from 26-29°C and visibility typically between 15-30 meters.

Manta Alley lives up to its name during manta season, when these gentle giants frequent the site for feeding. Tatawa Besar offers gentler conditions ideal for all skill levels, with coral gardens hosting over 1,000 fish species. The Komodo region’s biodiversity includes endemic species found nowhere else on Earth. Whether you’re a certified diver or a snorkeler, our crew manages all equipment and logistics, allowing you to focus entirely on the underwater spectacle. The Supraba’s compact size enables access to shallow reefs and protected bays that larger vessels cannot explore.
