A chef, not catering
Lunch served on the aft deck, dinner under way or at anchor. Ingredients sourced locally and the menu written against your table.
Itineraries
The shortest route that stops feeling rushed.
Two nights aboard, south Bali and the Nusa islands. The shortest itinerary where the passage time stops eating the water time.

Three days is the point where the boat stops being transport and starts being the trip.
- Departs Benoa; two nights at sheltered anchorage.
- Chef and divemaster aboard within the crew of five.
- South Bali on day one, the Nusa islands on day two.
- No open-water passage — everything is a short hop.
The route
Three days, day by day
Anchorages are chosen for calm water and a short run to the next morning. The final call always rests with the captain.
-
01
Day 1 · South Bali
Board at Benoa, cast off at 11:00. A sheltered cove near Uluwatu for lunch and a swim, then the yacht positions for sunset and dinner at anchor.
-
02
Day 2 · The Nusa islands
Lembongan and Penida. Snorkel sites in the morning, the island vistas through the afternoon, and the second night in the channel.
-
03
Day 3 · Back to Bali
A last swim stop on the crossing, then alongside at Benoa. Transfers back to your villa are arranged as part of the block.
The order is not fixed. Swell direction on the morning decides which anchorage runs first, and the captain confirms it before you leave.
Aboard
What three days gets you
A crew of five on a 60-foot hull, and two nights of the thing a day charter cannot give you at all.
A divemaster aboard
Part of the crew of five rather than a bolt-on. Site choice on the day is theirs and the captain's, made on the current.
Two nights at anchor
Sunset and sunrise from the same deck, twice. That is the whole argument for three days over a long day charter.
