Mutiara Laut

Liveaboard in Indonesia

5 (6 reviews)

Mutiara Laut is a 46-meter two-mast classic schooner built in 2009 and refitted in 2023, accommodating up to 15 guests across 7 cabins — one Master Suite with private terrace, four Double Cabins, and two Front Cabins. Like sister yacht Aliikai, voyages blend 1–2 daily dives with snorkeling, kayaking, and cultural excursions across Raja Ampat, Komodo, and the Banda Sea. Diving and equipment included. Rates starting from USD $662 per person per day (excl. 11% VAT).

Mutiara Laut — "Pearl of the Sea" — is a classic two-masted schooner whose design draws on 18th-century North Atlantic sailing tradition, hand-built in 2009 and comprehensively refitted in 2023. With seven sails and a cruising speed of 9 knots under sail, she is a genuine sailing yacht rather than a motor vessel with decorative masts — a distinction that sets her apart from most liveaboards operating in Indonesia. Featured in Superyacht Times, Time Out, and the Bangkok Post, she operates under the same philosophy as sister vessel Aliikai Voyage: immersive expedition travel where diving is one element of a broader experience rather than the sole focus.

Seven cabins on two decks accommodate up to 15 guests. The Master Cabin sits at the aft of the main deck with a king-size bed, en-suite bathroom, air conditioning, and a private terrace. Four Double Cabins on the lower deck each feature en-suite bathrooms, air conditioning, and a sofa convertible into a single bed. Two Front Cabins on the lower deck offer double beds with en-suite facilities. All king and double beds can be converted to twin configuration on request. Interiors are finished in warm teak throughout, with an indoor lounge and dining area complemented by an outdoor lounge and alfresco dining on deck.

Voyages typically include one to two dives per day alongside snorkeling, sea kayaking, wakeboarding, stand-up paddleboarding, waterskiing, and beach excursions. Full scuba equipment, nitrox, and snorkeling gear are included in the cabin rate, along with port fees, marine park fees, and fuel surcharges. A crew of 16 to 18, including onboard PADI divemasters, guides each voyage. For the 2026/2027 season, itineraries cover Raja Ampat, Komodo National Park, the Banda Sea (Spice Islands), Alor, and Sumbawa, with tailor-made routes available on request. The rate excludes Indonesian VAT of 11%.
