The Boat

Pagi Bumi is a 33-metre traditional Phinisi, hand-built from ironwood and teak by skilled boat builders from South Sulawesi.

The design combines classic Indonesian maritime heritage with a clean, modern interior, creating a calm and comfortable space for life at sea. The boat features three air-conditioned cabins, offering an intimate setup that is perfect for small groups or private charters.

On deck, guests can enjoy a spacious rooftop area ideal for relaxing between surf sessions, watching the horizon or planning the next stop. The layout encourages a slower pace of travel, where time is split between surfing, cruising and enjoying the surrounding ocean environment.

The Surf

Chartering Pagi Bumi gives you the freedom to explore some of Indonesia’s most consistent and uncrowded surf zones. With the ability to move based on swell, wind and tides, each trip is shaped around finding the best possible waves on any given day.

Depending on the route, guests can access a variety of reef breaks, beach breaks and remote peaks, many of which are only reachable by boat. This flexibility allows surfers to avoid crowds and maximise time in quality conditions, whether chasing long peeling walls or more powerful, hollow waves.

Indonesia’s reputation as one of the world’s premier surf destinations is well earned, and travelling by charter unlocks a more exclusive experience – where the focus is on scoring waves in pristine, less-travelled locations.

Accommodation

Accommodation aboard Pagi Bumi is designed for comfort and simplicity, with three well-appointed cabins featuring air conditioning for a restful night after long days in the water.

The small number of cabins ensures a more private and relaxed atmosphere compared to larger charter boats, making it ideal for groups of friends or families travelling together. Communal areas provide space to unwind, socialise and enjoy meals, while the open decks offer plenty of room to relax outdoors.

Life on board follows a natural rhythm — surf, eat, rest, repeat — with the ocean always just steps away.

Onboard Dining

Meals aboard Pagi Bumi are designed to complement an active surf lifestyle, with fresh and nourishing dishes served throughout the day. Expect a mix of Indonesian flavours and international favourites, keeping guests fuelled for early starts and long surf sessions.

Dining is typically a relaxed and social experience, enjoyed together on deck or in the communal dining area. Snacks, fresh fruit and drinks are available between meals, ensuring energy levels stay high throughout the trip.
