Highlights
The Bugis is a 27-meter/89-foot-long phinisi designed for sustainability, comfort, safety, and fun of up to 8 guests. The dedicated crew of 8 ensures a remarkable guest-to-crew ratio. Guests can expect top-notch service as they explore Indonesia's top cruise destinations, from the famous Raja Ampat and Komodo Islands to the remote Flores Sea, Wakatobi National Park, and the lesser-known Banggai Archipelago. The Bugis offers an environmentally conscious experience with solar-powered electricity, sustainable practices, and minimal generator use when guests are onboard, providing a peaceful atmosphere, open social spaces with panoramic views, and luxurious teak wood finishes, making it the perfect vessel for a charter or an unforgettable adventure with friends and family.
The Bugis has spacious social areas featuring panoramic views. The main deck provides a 30m2 shaded dining area where guests can relax and enjoy meals. On the upper deck, a semi-covered 45m2 space with a bar and open area invites you to practice yoga, sunbathe, unwind, or even party at night. The Bugis serves fresh and locally sourced food. Instead of a fixed meal plan, the crew handpicks fresh ingredients from the nearest local markets daily, guaranteeing a delightful culinary fusion of Indonesian and Western dishes.

A magical and unforgettable cruise!
The snorkelling sessions have been carefully prepared and adapted to the weather conditions. We felt safe. We saw amazing fish, manta rays, sharks, turtles... each time accompanied by the very attentive zodiac. The chef prepared us ultra fresh, healthy and delicious sushi and dishes. Tommy, the cruise director, accompanied us with great delicacy and great know-how.

Trip of a Lifetime, don't miss it!
I loved/loved/loved this trip! I loved being on the Bugis -- a new and comfy boat, i liked that it's small, so only 7 of us and 7 crew. The schedule was terrific, 3-4 snorkels per day, plus other excursions. Its soooo beautiful - i loved living on the boat, traveling from island to island. Plus Tommy is a terrific cruise director! We were fed well and often, including yummy afternoon treats and fabulous desserts! And i loved how the crew sang to us on arriving and for International Women's Day, and our final night -- and how they together cheered us on everytime we left for snorkeling and arrived again back to the boat -- anything we needed, they were glad to help us. Plus loved the kayaking. So much to love about this trip!
