Launched in 2008, Dewi Nusantara set new standards within the industry - raising the bar for comfort, design, space, service, and safety. The 57-metre ‘Goddess of the archipelago’ was purposefully designed to deliver maximum comfort during long periods at sea, and unparalleled space to spread out during your voyage. In fact, this vessel boasts one of the largest master suites of all liveaboard dive vessels, with panoramic ocean views, Jacuzzi, and lounge. And, the elegant style throughout Dewi Nusantara is second to none, with all interiors meticulously realised by Bali-based designer Bruno Helgen.

With 21 years of continuous operations behind them, Dewi Nusantara’s team is always ready to provide expert local knowledge and round-the-clock high-standards of service - no matter your desires. The vessel explores remote and iconic Indonesian regions such as West Papua, Banda Sea and Halmahera, with each adventurous itinerary generally lasting 11 nights. Luckily, Dewi Nusantara is as close to a five star experience as is possible in these faraway corners of the Indonesian Archipelago, allowing guests to truly make the most of this ultimate adventure vacation destination.
