Intimate Phinisi Adventures Through Indonesia
EcoPro Duyung Baru is a 27-metre traditional Indonesian Phinisi offering relaxed diving expeditions for a maximum of eight guests. With only four cabins onboard, the vessel provides an intimate, personal atmosphere in which divers can explore Indonesia without the crowds associated with larger liveaboards.
Each tastefully decorated cabin is air-conditioned and has a private en suite bathroom, providing guests with a comfortable retreat after a full day in the water. The small guest capacity creates more space for everyone and allows the attentive crew and dive team to offer a genuinely personal level of service.
Between dives, guests can stretch out on comfortable loungers on the sun deck or gather in the welcoming indoor saloon and dining area. The relaxed layout makes it easy to find a quiet corner or exchange stories with fellow travelers at the end of the day.
The kitchen is at the heart of life aboard Duyung Baru. Fresh meals and snacks are prepared throughout the day, combining the flavors of Indonesian home cooking with touches of familiar Western cuisine. Dining together adds to the warm, sociable character of the journey.
A spacious dive deck provides plenty of room for preparing equipment and storing gear. Experienced local guides lead guests through some of Indonesia’s most diverse underwater environments, where encounters may range from tiny reef creatures and colorful coral life to sharks, turtles and graceful manta rays.
Operating throughout the year, Duyung Baru explores Komodo National Park as well as selected routes around South Sulawesi and Wakatobi. With her traditional character, small groups and welcoming onboard atmosphere, she is an inviting choice for divers who value authentic experiences and personal service.
