The Sea Safari VII

The KLM Sea Safari VII is Indonesia's largest and most spacious luxury Phinisi liveaboard. One of the very few dive vessels in Indonesia built according to international marine class specifications, the ship spans an impressive 54 meters long and 11 meters wide providing guests with an abundance of space and luxury. The Sea Safari VII is our dedicated vessel for all scheduled cruises in the Far East of the Indonesian Archipelago including the Raja Ampat region.

Indonesian 'Bugis Prahus', commonly known as Phinisi, are made from locally grown timber according to a tradition that dates back to long before Portuguese colonists reached the area. The classic beauty and elegance from the Sea Safari VII combines this traditional craftsmanship with modern conveniences, providing our guests with luxurious comfort even in the remotest waters of the Indonesian archipelago. The Sea Safari VII is Indonesia's ultimate luxury liveaboard scuba diving vessel.
