Samambaia Liveaboard Indonesia

Having had her maiden voyage on Nov 8, 2015, M/V Samambaia is the newest two-mast wooden Phinisi schooner to sail some of the most gorgeous diving areas of Indonesia. Climb aboard into sheer luxury and unparalleled comfort: our focus is the utter satisfaction of our guests.
With an overall length of 40 meters (130 feet) and a beam of 9 meters (29 feet), and catering to only 14 guests, the Samambaia offers 7 tastefully decorated staterooms

  • 2 double cabins ( 180 x 200 cm Bed) 
  • 2 convertible cabins (double or twin)  
  • 2 twin cabins on the lower deck ( 90 x 200 cm Bed) 
  • plus a beautiful 160 sq.ft. Master Cabin ( 180 x 200 cm Bed ) with stunning 180° sea views on the main deck.

Each stateroom has a private en-suite bathroom, under bed storage, wardrobes and individually controlled AC.
On board the M/V Samambaia the 18-to-22 experienced, professional and friendly crew are always on hand, in order to help to create the unforgettable journey. Guests are catered to with delicious and varied international cuisine prepared every day with locally sourced ingredients by our chef, and our galley includes fresh ice-cream and daily baked bread and pastries. For relaxation guests can choose the shaded sundeck and soak in the spectacular Indonesian views in our comfortable loungers, or enjoy a relaxing massage from the on board masseuse.
Divers and snorkelers alike will marvel at the underwater beauty of Indonesia, with unique cruises to Raja Ampat, Banda Sea, Alor and Komodo. Whilst the Samambaia Yacht is new our crew and dive guides have years of experience in the area; we offer an impressive divemaster/guide to customer ratio of 4 to 1 ensuring the best service underwater both in terms of safety and enjoyment. Especially designed for our guests dedicated to underwater photography, we provide a camera room with separate camera work stations with integrated 110v and 220v charging station; we also have a huge diving deck with two hot water showers. The Samambaia has two 21-foot skiffs which serve as tender-boats, each one capable of swiftly transporting 8 divers to any dive site within an extended, safe radius of the mothership; the same crafts are used for ship-to-shore transfers and any other conceivable recreational or support related activities. All of our skiffs are powered by 4-cycle 90 hp-outboard motors.
Everything on the Samambaia is dual or redundant: compressors, generators, water-makers, GPS, navigation and communications devices, even liferafts; all to guarantee your utter comfort and safety. Divers can not only enjoy spectacular day and night diving, but a range of activities during the surface intervals such as scenic rides through lagoons and coves, trekking, visits to secluded beaches and whale watching. Last but not least, ALL our Nitrox is free, just like the beer! Additional surcharges apply to on-board massages, wine and spirits, rental gear, Harbor/Port Clearance fees, National Park fees, and exceptionally to fuel dependent on sudden fuel price increases.
