Dewi Nusantara

About this liveaboard

WELCOME ABOARD Dewi Nusantara provides a five-star liveaboard experience even in the furthest corners of the Indonesian archipelago. With an overall length of 58 meters and a beam of 12 metres, our three-masted schooner moves with grace and stability that only larger ships can offer. Two thousand square meters of sail are complemented by two 500-horsepower marine engines and two de-salinators that each produce 5000 litres of fresh water daily. We purposely designed the “Goddess of the Archipelago” to operate independently for long periods at sea while offering unparalleled comfort. Eight spacious air-conditioned Deluxe Staterooms can be adapted to either a double bed or twin singles and each has a spacious en-suite bathroom. The Master Cabin is the size of a large hotel suite and is positioned at the aft of the boat to take in spectacular sea views. Dewi Nusantara guests can expect to experience the romance of a bygone era and indulge in the luxury of space from bow to stern. There is a vast lounge, a large outdoor relaxation area and two different sun decks. Thanks to her size, Dewi Nusantara has become the ultimate live-aboard dive boat in Indonesia. Her discreet and attentive Indonesian crew of 19 is complemented by one cruise director and four dive masters who all have vast experience in our diving destinations. We have both an outdoor dining area and an indoor dining room. Both offer guests ample space and great views of the remote and exotic locations we sail. Guests generally share a table but if you would prefer some privacy that is always an option. Dining on the Dewi Nusantara is an exquisite and stylish experience. Our exceptional dive boat dining is one of the most notable features of our luxury liveaboard and a key factor in making our dive boat similar to a floating world-class hotel—an designed for comfort, elegance, and excellent dining.

Dining Schedule Our chef has trained at five-star restaurants in Bali, bringing a wealth of expertise and culinary delights to our onboard cuisine. Our meticulously crafted dining schedule includes five main meals a day. We kick start our days with a healthy ‘grazing breakfast’ featuring croissants, toast, fruit, cereals, coffee, or tea before the first dive of the day. A formal cooked breakfast is then served between the first and second dives of the day, offering guests the option of either a sumptuous Western breakfast (with all the trimmings) or a delectable local Indonesian breakfast. Following the second dive, a tantalizing buffet awaits for lunch, showcasing an array of Western and local Indonesian dishes.If you’re feeling hungry after your third dive of the day, we offer light afternoon tea snacks. As the day transitions into the evening, dinner is served either before or after the night dive, depending on your participation in the night dives. In addition to all these culinary options, we are happy to provide guests with snacks and / or meals during the day on request. Drinks and Beverages We have a good selection of drinks and beverages in our relaxation area, adjacent to the indoor dining room. Here, our Purser will serve you drinks, whether tea, coffee, non-alcoholic beverages, or a selection of local beer, wine, and spirits at any time of the day within the comforts of beautifully hand-crafted sofas.
