Boat Charter Raja Ampat – Day Boats, Speedboats & Local Vessels
Our Raja Ampat boat charter fleet provides flexible, on-demand vessel hire for day trips, island hopping, dive excursions, and short-range transfers. These are the workhorses of Raja Ampat exploration—fast, reliable, and crewed by local navigators who know every channel, reef, and hidden anchorage across the archipelago.
While phinisi charters and yacht charters serve multi-day luxury cruises, our boat charter fleet fills the essential role of daily exploration. Based at resorts, Waisai, and strategic locations, these vessels get you to the best sites quickly and safely.
