Private Boat Charter Lombok: Exploring the Secret Gilis in Style

Lombok is an island defined by water. To truly experience its magic, one must leave the land behind. However, the standard "public boat" experience—crowded, noisy, and rigid—is the antithesis of luxury.

At The Lombok Travel, we offer a curated fleet of private vessels. Whether you need a swift transfer to the Gilis or a romantic sunset cruise with champagne, chartering a boat transforms the ocean from an obstacle into a playground.

Choose Your Vessel

Not all sea journeys are created equal. We match the vessel to your style and destination.

The VIP Speedboat

Best for: Island Transfers & Day Trips.

Fast, efficient, and private. Cut the travel time to Gili Trawangan or Gili Air in half. Includes cushioned seating, towels, and cold drinks.

The Luxury Phinisi

Best for: Leisure Cruising & Pink Beach.

A traditional Indonesian wooden schooner outfitted with modern luxury. Sun decks with bean bags, onboard dining, and a stable, smooth sail.

The Catamaran / Yacht

Best for: Multi-day Trips & Parties.

The pinnacle of ocean luxury. Air-conditioned cabins, spacious lounge areas, and professional crew including a private chef.

Destinations Beyond Reach

A private charter unlocks doors that are closed to land travelers.

The Secret Gilis: Sail south to Gili Asahan and Gili Layar. Drop anchor in a turquoise lagoon where you are the only boat for miles.
Pink Beach via Sea: Avoid the bumpy road to Tangsi Beach. Arrive by sea to witness the Pink Sands from the water, a perspective few get to see.
Deep Blue Exploration: For certified divers, our private dive charters offer exclusive access to untouched reefs away from the crowded dive spots.

The "Blue Water" Service

Our charters are not just about the boat; they are about the service. Your captain is also your guide, knowing exactly where the turtles are feeding or where the currents are safest for children.

Lunch is not a packed sandwich. It is a beach BBQ prepared by our crew on a deserted island, or a seafood platter served on the aft deck with chilled wine.
