Explore the magical islands you will visit aboard Cajoma V Phinisi. Each stop offers a unique adventure from pink beaches to dragon encounters.
KELOR ISLAND
Ancient sailors called it "The Guardian." Dutch colonials built watchtowers on its crown. Local legend says it's a giant sea turtle turned to stone. A 20-minute climb rewards you with 360° views of dragon territories. The coral gardens below hide patrolling sea turtles in crystal shallows.
MANJERITE
Every sunset, tens of thousands of flying foxes launch from mangroves, creating a black river across orange skies. Ancient sea nomads believed these bats carried souls to the afterlife. Watch from your deck at 17:30. The sky will erupt. You'll forget to breathe.
PADAR ISLAND
Three crescent bays—turquoise, cobalt, jade—curve around dragon-spine ridges. Legend says a dragon princess died here protecting her brothers. Her body became the ridgeline. Her tears became three seas. The 30-minute climb is ruthless, but every explorer says: "I can die now."
PINK BEACH
One of only seven pink beaches on Earth. Microscopic red coral creates a rose-gold blush. Sailors once feared it was cursed by dragon blood. The reef drops from knee-deep to 50 meters—turtles, reef sharks, and octopi patrol waters so clear you'll think you're dreaming.
KOMODO ISLAND
Ground zero. The throne. Komodo dragons—largest lizards on Earth, unchanged for 4 million years. They sprint 20 km/h, kill with venom-laced bites. Trek with armed rangers. Watch them sun like kings. Feel evolution stare back. This isn't a zoo. It's their Kingdom
TAKA MAKASSAR
A sandbar that emerges at low tide, then disappears beneath waves. Sea nomads called it "Ghost Island"—a resting place for ocean spirits. Stand in the middle of the ocean with ankle-deep water. Snorkel where the island vanishes. Your private Maldives, but only for 2 hours.
MANTA POINT
A submerged pinnacle where currents collide, creating a cleaning station for manta rays with 7-meter wingspans. Divers call them "Royal Stingrays"—reincarnated ocean kings. The taboo: look, never touch. Watch them barrel-roll beneath you. Swimming with mantas IS your bucket list.
GILI LAWA
Twin islands—Lawa Darat and Lawa Laut—frame the golden highway between sky and sea. Ancient traders navigated by these peaks. At sunrise, watch the world ignite from savannah ridges. At sunset, the sky bleeds into three shades of fire. The 30-minute trek is steep, but the 360° view makes kings jealous.
SLABA ISLAND
Slaba rises like a fortress from deep blue—a volcanic dome crowned with savannah where white-bellied sea eagles hunt. Bajo fishermen call it "Pulau Rajawali" (Eagle Island), believing the birds are guardians of hidden treasures below. Dive the walls where currents deliver big fish, sharks, and swirling barracuda. Above: eagles. Below: an underwater avalanche of life.
SEBAYUR ISLAND
Sebayur guards one of Komodo's best-kept secrets: untouched coral gardens teeming with life. While others chase dragons, divers chase legends here—pygmy seahorses, ghost pipefishes, and macro critters hiding in soft coral forests. The bay is a natural aquarium. The hillside trek offers sunrise views without the Padar crowds.
KANAWA ISLAND
While crowds chase Pink Beach, explorers slip to Kanawa—pristine coral reefs, zero crowds. Fishermen once avoided it, believing the Sea Goddess protected these waters. The reef here is 80% live coral. Turtles nest on beaches. Blacktip sharks patrol shallows. This is the Komodo nobody talks about.
SABOLO ISLAND (RANGKO CAVE)
Hidden in Sabolo's limestone cliffs lies Rangko Cave—a saltwater cavern illuminated by a ceiling skylight. Sunbeams pierce the darkness, turning water neon blue. Local legend says bathing here grants courage to face dragons. Swim through the entrance tunnel. Surface inside the cathedral. Float in liquid sapphire while light dances on ancient rock.
BIDADARI ISLAND
Bidadari" means angel in Indonesian. One glance explains why. Powdery white sand. Turquoise shallows. Zero crowds. Fishermen say angels rest here between monsoons, leaving footprints in the sand that waves erase by dawn. Snorkel the fringing reef where baby blacktips patrol. This is your castaway fantasy—pristine, peaceful, perfect.

大学の親友4人で選んだfriends getaway。Cajoma V PhinisiのStandard Cabinでも十分なprivacyが保たれていて、夜中に笑い声が漏れても気にならない設計。Batu Bolongのダイビングは透明度がsharpで、manta rayと泳げた瞬間は言葉を失った。船上のchefは私たちの好みを初日で把握し、2日目からはcustomized menuを提案してくれた。唯一、サプライチェーンの関係か、ある日のdessertが重めだった。でも翌日には「yesterday’s feedback reflected」と言って軽めのレモンタルトを出してくれて、ホスピタリティの高さを感じた。

Cajoma V Phinisiでのhoneymoonは、控えめに言ってperfect。Padar Islandのgolden hourに登頂し、360度のviewを独占。そのdrone shotは今後の人生の宝物になる。船上のprivate dinnerは、妻のアレルギーを事前に確認し、entirely customized menuを用意してくれた。crewのquiet professionalismが、贅沢さを演出。Wae Rebo訪問は文化的に深みがありましたが、移動がroughで少し疲労。off-roading vehicleのサスペンションが古い印象。でも、その分、船に戻った時のrelaxationがより深く感じられた。

Sailing aboard the Cajoma V Phinisi was the antidote to urban fatigue I didn’t know I needed. The Master Suite’s teak detailing and cross-breeze layout made waking up to the Komodo sunrise feel like part of the ritual. We spent two days at Gili Lawa, where the coral walls teem with trevallies and the odd reef shark—perfect for early morning drift dives. One evening, anchored near Sebayur Island, our group of six friends toasted with local Riesling as the sky turned tangerine. The crew anticipated needs without hovering—a hallmark of true service. That said, the satellite Wi-Fi struggled during video calls, though honestly, that may have been the point. For a 4-day journey, it felt expansive, though I wouldn’t have complained had we lingered an extra half-day at Bidadari Beach. The chef’s turmeric-marinated snapper with coconut sambal remains a benchmark.

Comemorei meus 50 anos a bordo do Cajoma V Phinisi, e foi um milestone birthday digno de sonho. Meus filhos organizaram tudo em segredo. Acordar no master suite com uma bandeja de café da manhã e flores foi emocionante. O dia em Bidadari Beach foi mágico — fizemos um picnic na areia rosa com champanhe gelado, e o time montou um bolo surpresa com velas. O drone shot que gravaram é um tesouro familiar. O barco navegou até Wae Rebo ao entardecer, onde assistimos ao pôr do sol com um violoncelista tocando ao vivo — um detalhe que me pegou de surpresa. O único senão: o vento no segundo dia dificultou um pouco o passeio de caiaque, mas o staff reagiu rápido com planos alternativos. Cada detalhe, do vinho selecionado ao travesseiro de aroma personalizado, mostrou um nível de serviço raro. Vale cada centavo.

I came to Cajoma V Phinisi seeking stillness, and found it in the space between strokes of the oar at Bidadari Beach. The crew had set up a paddleboard at dawn—just me, the glassy surface, and the distant silhouette of the boat at anchor. The rhythm of the trip was impeccable: mornings for exploration, afternoons for reading in the shade of the sail. A stop at Kalong Island coincided with the bats’ evening flight—thousands pouring from the mangroves like smoke. I’ve seen documentaries, but nothing prepares you for the sound, the sheer volume of life in motion. The boat’s design honors tradition without romanticizing it—functional rigging, clean lines, cabins with real airflow. One evening, the generator noise was slightly louder than usual—likely a fuel adjustment—but it faded by midnight. What remains is the taste of fresh mango salad eaten on the bow, the weightlessness of floating above Kanawa’s coral, and the rare luxury of being nowhere important.

हम पांच लोगों के साथ, दो बच्चों के साथ, Cajoma V Phinisi पर थे। Long Beach पर हमने घंटों sandcastles बनाए — बच्चों को snorkeling भी बहुत अच्छा लगा। खासकर Crystal Rock पर visibility इतनी clear थी कि clownfish और turtles आसानी से दिख रहे थे। Standard Cabin छोटी थी लेकिन functional, AC बहुत effective था। बच्चों के लिए special snacks और floaties arrange किए गए थे — thoughtful touch। एक शाम हमने Padar Island के sunset के बाद डिनर किया, जहाँ grilled lobster और local coconut rice था। थोड़ी delay हुई थी pick-up में, लेकिन crew ने बाद में personalized apology के साथ fresh mango tart serve किया।

لقد بحثتُ عن مكان يجمع بين الطبيعة والخصوصية، وCajoma V Phinisi قدم ذلك بدقة. كجزء من رحلة رفاهية للتأمل، كانت محطة Wainilu هي الأكثر تأثيراً – شاطئ خالٍ تقريباً، رمال بيضاء، ومياه شفافة. قضينا جلسة يوغا مبكرة قبل الإفطار، وكان الجو مثالياً. Padar Island أعطتنا تحدٍ بدني بسيط، لكن المكافأة كانت إطلالة لا تُضاهى عند القمة، خاصة عند شروق الشمس. الكابينة التي أقمت فيها كانت مخصصة للضيوف، مع ديكور خشبي دافئ وحمّام كبير. التفاصيل الصغيرة لفتت نظري: من الشموع العطرية في الغرفة إلى القهوة المُحضّرة فور الاستيقاظ. الطاقم كان مهنياً دون تدخل مفرط، يقدّمون الخدمة بلمسة خفيفة. أتمنى فقط أن تكون هناك جلسة تدليك إضافية متاحة، فالمدة كانت محدودة. بصفتي في رحلة wellness retreat، شعرت أن كل عنصر من itinerary دعم توازني الداخلي. التجربة كانت هادئة، متعمدة، ومحسوبة بذكاء.

Traveling with extended family often demands compromise, but Cajoma V Phinisi managed to feel both communal and private. The seven cabins—split between Master and Standard—allowed flexibility without hierarchy. We spent a sunlit morning at Pink Beach, where the coral-pink sand glowed under clear skies, then snorkeled the fringing reef with turtles gliding beneath us. The next day, Batu Bolong offered stronger currents and the thrill of a proper drift dive. The crew anticipated dietary needs: gluten-free options appeared without fuss, and the chef prepared a special birthday coconut cake for my aunt. The only drawback: limited mobile signal made coordinating with our office in Singapore difficult. But in hindsight, that was a gift. Evenings were spent on the upper deck, watching the sky shift from amber to indigo. One night, anchored near Bidadari Beach, we spotted a manta ray breaching—its wings slicing the surface like a myth made real. The boat didn’t shout; it whispered, and we listened.

Como parte de um dive group avançado, exigimos segurança, logística e conforto. O Cajoma V Phinisi atendeu com excelência. O dive deck é funcional, com nitrox disponível e cilindros bem rotulados. Mergulhamos em Castle Rock e Manjarite — correntes fortes, visibilidade de 25 metros, e vida marinha exuberante. O briefings foram feitos por um dive master com mais de 15 anos de experiência, o que aumentou minha confiança. A standard cabin é compacta, mas com ótimo isolamento acústico. A equipe trouxe um especialista em marine life para um talk noturno — aprendi sobre os recifes de Komodo com slides e vídeos. Gostaria de ter tido mais um dia para explorar Wae Rebo, mas entendo as restrições ambientais. O drone shot do grupo saindo do barco com máscaras e nadadeiras foi épico. Voltarei com certeza.
