Ayana Komodo Waecicu Beach in Labuan Bajo, Indonesia, is inviting guests to join in a two-day-one-night sailing adventure aboard its flagship luxury ship, Ayana Lako di’a.
This shared voyage of up to 14 guests will take participants through the ecological wonders of the UNESCO World Heritage-listed Komodo National Park.
The Ayana Lako di’a is a modern phinisi, a wooden sailing ship that has been an integral part of seafaring cultures of South Sulawesi since the early 20th century and listed as UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage. One of the largest luxury vessels in Western Flores, Ayana Lako di’a provides a modern suite accommodation in nine fully air-conditioned cabins with ensuites, and features a library, lounge, bar, an indoor dining area and daybeds on the main deck.
The Lako di’a Shared Luxury Cruises will depart for the first tie on April 12, and will be conducted from Friday to Saturday during most weeks up until October 19. The itinerary will bring guests to Komodo National Park’s most spectacular destinations with a mix of marine and land excursions. These include Kalong Island, a tiny mangrove islet home to thousands of fruit bats; Padar Island, which provides a panoramic view of four crescent-shaped beaches below green-capped mountains; Pink Beach, which gets its colour from a microscopic creature that produces a red pigment on the fringing coral reefs; and Komodo Island, home of the iconic Komodo dragon, the largest lizard on earth.
The Shared Luxury Cruise includes full-board meals, including afternoon tea, free-flow mineral water, a range of non-alcoholic beverages, water activities like snorkelling, kayaking and stand-up paddle boarding, leisure activities such as karaoke, film screenings and yoga, Komodo National Park entrance fee, airport transfers, and digital documentation.
