Mari traditional Indonesian phinisi liveaboard

Mari is a traditional Indonesian phinisi liveaboard designed for dive-focused journeys across Indonesia’s most biodiverse marine regions. The boat operates year-round in destinations including Raja Ampat, Triton Bay, Banda Sea, Forgotten Islands, Halmahera, Komodo, Flores, Alor, Maluku, Bali, and Sulawesi. Its core appeal is simple: small-group diving, generous shared spaces, experienced guiding, and access to remote underwater landscapes in the Coral Triangle.

Boat & Trip Overview

Mari is a wooden Indonesian phinisi built for liveaboard dive travel across remote Indonesian waters. The boat combines classic maritime character with practical comfort, giving divers space to prepare, rest, dine, and enjoy the views between dives.
