Description

Boat

Bajau is a beautifully crafted traditional wooden yacht built with sustainability and guest comfort at its heart. Constructed from sturdy ironwood and teak, this vessel is designed to blend classic Indonesian seafaring aesthetics with practical, eco-focused cruising. With a length of 27.7 m and a beam of 6.0 m, Bajau offers ample space for relaxation, socialising and exploration aboard a conscientious and quiet ship.

Bajau runs primarily on solar-powered electricity, reducing generator use, lowering noise, and enhancing the tranquil ambience when anchored. The open living concept on the main and upper decks provides panoramic views and generous communal areas for dining, lounging, sunbathing, yoga or sunset drinks. The layout is tailored to encourage connection with nature and the surrounding seascapes.

Bajau typically cruises at around 8 knots, balancing smooth sailing with efficient passage between Indonesia’s top cruising grounds. Guests enjoy meals prepared daily using fresh, locally sourced ingredients, with a fusion of Indonesian and international flavours served to the table.

Bajau features a large, purpose-designed dive room with ample space for gear, camera equipment, and post-dive relaxation.

With a professional crew, including experienced hosts and support staff, life aboard Bajau is both comfortable and enriching.
