Yacht Charter Itineraries for New Caledonia - Cruise Itinerary Ile des Pins – 1 week

Day 1: Departure from Nouméa, Rédika small island, Ouen island

Board the yacht at Noumea and set sail for Redika Island. After a short visit of the island, the next sailing stop on your yacht charter vacation is Ouen Island. Île Ouen sits just off the southwestern tip of Grand Terre, located 37 km from Noumea. It is a large, sparsely vegetated, hilly island, covering 38 km². Separating Île Ouen from the mainland is the Canal Woodin. Spend the night on board the yacht in the lagoon of Ouen Island.

Day 2: Departure from Ouen island, 5 Islands, Kouare small island

The next morning, set sail to the 5 islands. The next destination on the yacht charter itinerary is Kouare Island. Ilot Kouare is a small uninhabited islet in the World Heritage Site of New Caledonia's Lagoon, about 40 nautical miles southeast of Noumea. A maze of vibrant coral reefs surrounds the islet and here, in the summer, thousands of species of fish and invertebrates assemble to breed in the clear protected waters. Kouare has a reasonably good lagoon anchorage with plenty of open sand areas in 6 to 7 metres of water to anchor in.The fringing reef is lush with brilliantly colored corals from awash at low tide to 6 meters of water. Snorkelling along the reef is an absolute delight with sea turtles, shoals of sardines, tropical fish of every description, brilliant sea fans.

Day 3: Departure from Kouare small island, Kuto bay (Isle of Pines)

The next stop on your yacht charter vacation is Kuto Bay. Nestled on the gorgeous “Ile des Pins” (Isle of Pines) in New Caledonia, Kuto Bay is one of the most beautiful and unspoilt beaches around. Kuto Bay has a long white sandy beach bordered by coconut palms and Column pines, which has been described by some as "one of the most beautiful undiscovered beaches in the world".

Day 4: Departure from Kuto bay, Nokanhoui atoll, Oro bay

From Kuto Bay, sail Nakanhoui Atoll. Located on the southern point of the Isle of Pines in New Caledonia, Nokanhui is a tiny atoll that sits like a pearl in the balmy blue waters of the South Pacific. Surrounded by warm, clear, shallow waters it is the perfect place to escape the world for a few hours and enjoy the solitude with only seabirds and a few crabs to keep you company. Then move on to Oro bay. Reached by sea on foot along a small narrow path and truly out of this world, Oro Bay boasts two superb beaches of incredibly fine white sand, crystal water and a natural swimming pool carved out of the coral limestone.

Day 5: Departure from Oro bay, Adventure reef, Gadji bay

Next, sail to the Adventure reef. The reef has great species diversity with a high level of endemism, and is home to endangered dugongs (Dugong dugon), and is an important nesting site for Green Sea Turtle (Chelonia mydas). Then, sail to Gadji Bay.

Day 6: Departure from Gadji bay, Baie de Prony

There is the possibility for some Snorkeling, diving, windsurfing, in Aguille de Prony, which is an amazing underwater structure in the Prony bay south of Noumea. You can also enjoy a bath in the cascade and hot water sulfur pool. Spend the night in the bay.

Day 7: Departure from Prony bay, Bailly small island, Arrival at Nouméa

On the way back to Noumea, there is Bailly Island. Then sail on to the final destination of your yacht charter holiday, Noumea for disembarking. It is highly recommended to snorkel while in Noumea. The water off Rocher a la Voile around and into Baie des Citrons has coral literally meters from the shore line; making it very easy to see the coral and fish that inhabit there.

7 days Bali - Flores – Bali

Journeys along the Lesser Sunda Islands remain among our favorite itineraries and for good reasons. Few areas in Asia can lay claim to such cultural and natural diversity: towering active volcanoes, jungle-clad mountain ranges, and dry savannah, teeming with wildlife, quiet coastal villages, emerald seas, megalithic cultures, colorful market places, tribal rituals and architecture, not to mention a world of kaleidoscopic beauty under water. This cruise will cover a. o. the Komodo area for a couple of days of snorkeling, beach combing and hiking through one of the most beautiful National Parks of Indonesia.

Day One

At around 08.30 am, board the yacht at Benoa, settle in and sail to Gili Trawangan for swimming, snorkeling, diving (optional, it has o be booked in advanced) and beach-combing. Late afternoon onward sailing to Sumbawa.

Day Two

Arrive at Pulau Bungin a tiny island, populated by ‘sea-gypsies’ (bajao). We stroll through narrow streets lined up by houses on stilts to outsmart the incoming tide. Performance of traditional music and dance. Onward sailing to Pulau Moyo. At the South point of Moyo we spend a few hours relaxing, swimming and snorkeling. Night sailing to The Komodo.

Day Three

Rinca Island, the second biggest in the Komodo archipelago, is also the richest in terms of fauna. We will go trekking and look for wild horses, water buffalo, wild boar, monkeys, and of course the famous ‘Komodo dragons’ in spectacular scenery of savannah and emerald coves. Around noon sail to ‘Sabolon’, a famous reef with a huge variety of live coral and beautiful fish. Snorkeling, diving (optional, it has to be booked in advanced) and beach-exploration. In the afternoon proceed to the Riung archipelago, north of Flores.

Day Four

Late morning arrival in Labuhanbajo. Here we will tour to a nearby village to attend the so-called caci (whip-) dance for which the Manggarai district of Flores enjoys national fame. Midday sail to Bidadari Island, swimming, snorkeling, exploring the interior. Afternoon sail to Komodo; spend a quiet night in the bay of Komodo island.

Day Five

Morning arrival in Komodo Island. Another opportunity to catch a glimpse of, or even stumble over the last representative of the Jurassic Park on earth, the infamous Komodo dragon. Midday sail to Red Beach, another breathtaking desert island where the beaches are red-coloured by pulverized red coral. In the afternoon visit of Gili Lawa to hike the local summit and enjoy a splendid panorama over the moonscape islands of the Komodo Archipelago and the mainland of Flores. Late afternoon setting sail, headed west.

Day Six

Morning arrive in Satonda, the top of an extinct volcano. We will visit the crater lake in the centre of the island, where we may meet colonies of flying foxes after a short walk. An afternoon of relaxation on the beautifully wild beach of Satonda and of lazy floating on the gentle currents over a stunning reef drop just off the coastline. Afternoon sailing to Pulau Kromo. Here we will have our farewell party with the crew, possibly witnessed by thousands of fruit bats crossing to the mainland looking for night shelter. Evening sailing to Nara Bay (North West Lombok).

Day Seven

After an early morning breakfast we have a half day tour over West-Lombok, meeting the local monkeys and see the process of local palm sugar plantations. Before lunch we re-embark the Yacht to set sail to Benoa harbour, southeast Bali. Arrival in Benoa before sunset. End of the cruise, individual transfer to hotel or airport.

6 days Diving Komodo Banta and More

Located some 500 kilometres east of Bali, the Komodo National Park is an archipelago of about eighty islands set between Flores to the east and Sumbawa to the west. Underwater it offers a universe of spectacular beauty, one of the very richest in the world in terms of diversity, host to more than 1,100 different species of fish and over 250 types of corals. When one looks at the map one will readily understand that the Komodo National Park is a magic border area between two totally different marine ecosystems. To the north there is the Flores Sea, a purely tropical environment with clear warm waters, kaleidoscopic corals and unsurpassed visibility. The Savu Sea to the south is in reality a sector of the Indian Ocean. Between the islands there is first of all the eternal lunar clockwork of the tides. However, in addition there are also the currents from the deep of the Southern Ocean that are pushing up against the continental shelf and venting through subterranean passages, carrying a never ending supply of plankton.

Day One

On day one when you arrive at the airport of Labuanbajo on the western tip of Flores, cars are waiting to take you to the harbour, where the Yacht is tied up to the dock. After embarkation we will first give you a general ships’ briefing to familiarize you with the vessel and our safety and emergency procedures. While you have your first lunch the boat departs to Sabayor Island, at approximately two hours sailing time from the mainland. Here we make our test dive to check our equipment, to make the necessary adjustments to the weights and to get to know each other. We spend the night at the mooring and that same evening we also make our first night dive

Day Two

On day two the Yacht will proceed towards Gili Lawa Laut. This is a small island located on the northern side of the Komodo National Park and offers both a beautiful landscape and some of the prettiest dive sites in the area. The diving experience will include a classic reef dive, seamounts and exciting channels. We make three dives including the Cristal Rock which is famous for its spectacular scenery and where the turn of every corner brings a new surprise – another school of fish, stunning corals or even the occasional shark. In the late afternoon our staff will take you up to a spot on the hill where you have a wonderful view over the Park. It is the perfect point to enjoy the sunset.

Day Three

On day three our plan is to first make an early morning dive at Castle Rock. With its tip just six meters above the sea level this seamount is regarded as the best shark site in the park. Sometimes dolphins patrol the deep lip of rock….Rainbow runners, schools of jacks, and eagle rays hover in the blue. Following our first dive the boat will go on a westerly course and move to Banta Island. Banta offers different types of diving experiences. There is a famous wall on the Northwestern tip of the island that is named ‘Highway to Heaven’. There is also the well known GPS point, a seamount off the Eastern point covered with beautiful hard coral formations. With a bit of luck we will see different species of sharks. After two afternoon dives we will follow up with a night dive on a spot that is usually referred to as ’it’s a small world’.

Day Four

On day four the yacht will move to the island of Tatawa. Our first dive will be a drift dive on a beautiful reef where we can expect to spot turtles as well as hump-head parrotfish. Our second dive will be on Batu Bolong which is considered one of the best sites in the Park. The marine life around this small pinnacle is nothing short of stunning with plenty of fish action including sharks, giant trevallies, tuna and Napoleon wrasse. Karang Makasar, west of Komodo Island, is one of the best manta observing location and divers have rarely been disappointed. We will make our last day dive here. Late afternoon, the Yacht will go on a southeasterly course towards the northern tip of Rinca. Here we spend the night at anchor and our plan is to make a night dive on an excellent macro spot.

Day Five

On day five you will make your last dive after breakfast on the island of Tengah Kecil. This is a sloping reef which has colorful hard and soft coral growth with abundant sponges and fish life. Along the top of the reef, hard corals provide homes for huge clouds of schooling anthias and fusiliers. After lunch, we will go ashore and make a short trek inland on Rinca Island an attempt to spot the famous Komodo dragon. Once we are back aboard, we will sail a short distance to an anchorage just North of the westernmost tip of the island. Here we will spend some time ashore to meet the people in the local village. When the sun sets we will start sailing on a Northerly course towards Labuanbajo.

Day 6

On day six we reach the harbour of Labuanbajo on the Flores mainland early in the morning. After breakfast, you say farewell to the captain and crew and we transfer you to the airport for the return flight to Bali or to your next destination.

Day 4:  

Leave early in the morning for the next stop which will be Skradin.  Have breakfast while travelling up the karst river gorge framed by spectacular high cliffs.  Pulling into the marina, you can take private boat up to the Krka Falls.
