Cost · per night, whole vessel

What a charter actually costs.

Priced per night for the entire yacht, not per person. Here is what sits inside that figure, what moves it, and what is charged separately.

In short

A Raja Ampat charter is quoted per night for the whole vessel, all-inclusive of crew, chef and dive guides, with a four-night minimum.

  • Per night for the vessel — not per person, not per cabin
  • Crew, chef, dive guides, meals, fuel and diving included
  • Four nights minimum; a seven-night charter is the common shape
  • Marine park permit and crew gratuity are charged separately

What moves the number

Three levers, one figure

The nightly rate is not a list price. Three things decide where in the range you land.

The vessel

Size, cabin count and standard. A 50-metre phinisi and a 65-metre superyacht are different propositions.

The season

October to April is peak. December to March, when the mantas are in, carries the firmest rates.

The route

Longer runs south to Misool or east to Cendrawasih add fuel and days at sea.

Tell us the three and we quote the actual figure rather than a range.

Before you ask

Good to know

Tell us your dates and we will quote the real number.

Your vessel, nights and season decide it. We come back with a figure, not a range.
