Cruise Indonesia on boats designed to connect you with nature and experiences delivered with warm hospitality and fun.
Our eco-friendly liveaboards have been designed to connect guests with the natural beauty that surrounds us. All guest areas and cabins are above deck and cleverly designed to allow guests to move comfortably and easily between indoor and outdoor spaces.
The three shared guest areas have been thoughtfully configured to make the most of the panoramic views.
On the upper deck, there is a spacious area at the rear, part shaded and part open-air, offering a versatile space for yoga, sunbathing, reading, or simply unwinding. Complete with a bar, this is also the perfect spot for sundowners and stargazing.
At the front of the upper deck is a comfortable open-air lounging area, ideal for a quiet moment, to sunbathe or read, or to enjoy sunrise with freshly brewed coffee.
The covered main deck features an open-sided lounging area and a casual dining space—perfect for relaxed meals, conversations, and board games.
On the main deck, four generously sized cabins are designed to enhance the outdoor connection, with large windows offering natural light and views across the sea. Despite their openness, each cabin provides comfort, shelter, and privacy.
Accommodations include en-suite bathrooms, ceiling fans, reading lights, and ample storage space.
In keeping with our eco-friendly ethos, our cabins have no air conditioning. Their location on the main deck, large windows and ventilation louvres are designed to harness the sea breeze. Cabins are insulated and outfitted with ceiling fans to ensure comfort without compromising sustainability.
Air conditioning is not only environmentally harmful but disconnects us from the natural world. We believe that lying in bed listening to the sound of the ocean is the better choice.
A large boarding platform and rear stairs make for smooth boarding and disembarking, and serve as an ideal launch pad for swimming and snorkelling. There are also side access points through the gunwale, which can be more convenient depending on conditions.
The quiet of an Indonesian sunset is best experienced in stillness. At the end of each day, our boats switch to solar-powered batteries, creating a peaceful atmosphere for sunset cocktails, dinner, and a restful night accompanied only by the gentle sound of waves.
Our slow travel approach extends to the table. Meals are created daily using fresh ingredients from local markets—a changing menu of Indonesian and Western-inspired dishes prepared by our professionally trained chefs. Every meal is relaxed, seasonal, and full of flavour.
Hospitality on board is personal and attentive. With a dedicated crew of nine and a maximum of eight guests, our generous guest-to-crew ratio ensures thoughtful service throughout your journey.
From freshly brewed coffee to evening cocktails, from beach barbecues to guided snorkelling trips, every moment is handled with care. Cabins are tidied daily, meals are prepared with attention to detail, and our navigation team ensures each passage is smooth and considered.
Whether you’re island-hopping, relaxing on deck, or exploring underwater, your experience is delivered with warmth, professionalism, and a genuine passion for hospitality.
Nomad Archipelago offers both shared cruises and private charter options.
Our small group shared departures are ideal for solo travellers, couples, small families, and groups of friends looking to explore in the company of like-minded guests. With spacious social areas, you can always find a quiet corner for a book or yoga session, or join others for board games, sunset drinks, or long conversations over a shared meal.
For those travelling as a group, a private charter offers the exclusivity of having the entire boat to yourselves. Routes, activities, and schedules can be fully tailored to your preferences. All dates listed for our scheduled departures are also available for private charter, and most other dates can be booked privately upon request.

Each of our destinations offers a chance to slow down, connect with coastal cultures, and experience the ocean in its most vivid form. From manta rays and mangroves to village visits and limestone peaks, we choose to explore places that offer immersion over itinerary—remote, wild corners of Indonesia that reward curiosity, patience, and the quiet joy of discovering what lies beyond the map.
