Cruise Indonesian Islands while Experiencing
Magnificent Tropical Marine Life, Reefs and Coral

Indonesia Cruise Tours directly booked with Secret Retreats will take you to communities whose reefs are living coral in intense colours inhabited by iridescent tropical fish. Having forged bonds with these islanders based on a shared passion for Asian marine life, and a sincere desire to preserve traditional boatbuilding, Secret Retreats has helped institute no-take zones which have seen the regeneration of the reefs.

When you cruise Indonesian islands on boats curated by the mariners Secret Retreats has confided in, you are helping this rebirth and conservation of part of our planet’s most stunning natural wonders. For luxury cruises Indonesia is hard to equal. The success of the no-take zones now means that you can enjoy stunning dives directly from the balcony of your room in one of the curated hotels you will cruise to and witness the wealth of the aquatic wildlife literally face to face. Swimming over coral surrounded by shoals of brightly coloured tropical fish is an experience any sea lover will relish.

Experience the Essence of Asia with a Secret Retreats
Traditional Indonesian Cruise

Our independent boats will grant you the kind of Indonesia cruise you simply cannot find offered by online travel agencies. Secret Retreats has years of experience dealing with these traditional communities and shares and respects their loving defence of the Asian marine idyll they will gladly share with you. Local knowledge and know-how are precious, and aren’t to be found just anywhere.

Our private charter Indonesia cruises can be tailored to suit you and your family, from island hopping to witness ethnic groups and lifestyles unchanged for centuries to the best dive spots to enjoy some of the richest reef dives in the world today. The Secret Retreats concierges and our boat teams want you to experience Asia at its very best.

A Luxury Cruise in Indonesia to Suit Every Travelling Style and Occasion

With such incredible seascapes and marine environments to explore, and of course being an island (archipelago) nation, there is a great choice of boats and yachts on offer. And the Secret Retreats team have curated a shortlist of the best privately owned yachts and boats to share with you, whether onboard a luxury cruise in Indonesia at sea or taking a wildlife cruise into the jungles of Borneo by river-boat. Sailing is in the blood of many people in this region and this is exemplified in the excellent traditional yachts known as Phinisi. Hand built from iron-wood and teak, many of these traditional sailing vessels that once plied the seas between the islands carrying exotic spices to market have today been re-purposed as luxury private yachts, offering a choice from 1-cabin yachts to 5-cabin yachts. A yacht for every occasion, whether you are treating yourself to a very private holiday sailing and diving Indonesia on the ultimate ‘me-time’, or travelling as a couple perhaps celebrating an anniversary, or maybe you are planning to enjoy a wonderful family gathering sailing and diving together on a family sailing trip in Indonesia.

Secret Retreats have a yacht for you, ready to take you to some of the world’s most beautiful seascapes, fascinating islands and magnificent tropical marine life that live on or around the world’s most bio-diverse reef systems in Raja Ampat Indonesia. And where larger groups are concerned, we can also arrange tandem sailing, taking a 5-cabin yacht and a 3-cabin yacht together, comfortably sleeping up to 16people in the 8 double en-suite cabins, you and your family and friends all sailing and exploring the archipelago’s waters and islands together on a Secret Retreats Indonesia cruise package.

Experience the Essence of Asia with a Secret Retreats on a Cruise
Tour of Indonesia

While the marine life and diving is truly incredible, the sights above the waterline and on the islands on a cruise tour of Indonesia are equally fascinating. Home to a wide variety of ethnic groups with unique cultures there is a lot to discover as you island hop during your sailing trip in Indonesia. A private yacht charter in Indonesia is more than just the luxury life at sea, and the amazing diving and underwater scenery. Visiting some of the archipelago’s tribal groups and learning about their lifestyles. Taking trips to explore the island interiors and enjoy walks amongst the island’s forests, jungles and countryside. And the wildlife, from the awesome Komodo Dragons to the beauty queens of the animal kingdom, the Birds of Paradise. The diversity of Indonesia is breath taking, whether the flora and fauna between the islands, the enormous variety of ecology and environments across the archipelago, or the rich diversity in culture and tradition between the many different peoples that call these 1,000s of islands home.

Our independent and privately owned and managed boat teams will share with you the quality of Indonesia cruise package or private charter cruise that you simply cannot find offered by online travel agencies. Secret Retreats has years of experience working closely with the traditional communities that live on Indonesia’s remote islands, and our cruise tours of Indonesia are designed to support and give back to the local community helping to protect and preserve the environment and their cultures and ways of life. Local knowledge and know-how are precious, and it is this connection to the community, the curation of and working together with small locally owned and managed businesses that we share with you, the travellers to our Asian homes. In keeping our business firmly local, we can ensure you a wonderful luxury cruise in Indonesia as we share the secrets of our destinations with you while your Indonesia cruise holiday also supports the sustainable and responsible travel projects that are championed by Secret Retreats and all our partners. Travel without footprints, supporting sustainable and regenerative travel as you travel with the Secret Retreats community.
