Immersive Adventures and Family Moments: A Bespoke Voyage on Dunia Baru
In the heart of the Raja Ampat yacht charter region, where emerald jungles rise from crystal waters, Dunia Baru delivers not just a journey—but a memory etched in ocean spray. For Stewart Campbell and his young family, a week aboard this luxury phinisi yacht unfolded into a seamless blend of diving thrills, cultural connections, and rare family ease.
Handcrafted from ironwood and teak, the 51-meter private yacht charter Indonesia stands as a floating masterpiece of traditional artistry and refined comfort. With a seasoned crew that quickly “adopts” children into their onboard family, even the youngest guests feel at home.
Guided by Clive White, Dunia Baru’s expert PADI instructor and cruise director, the family explored some of the world’s most vibrant reefs—encountering sharks, rays, and vibrant marine life in dive sites like Melissa’s Garden and the Wayag Archipelago. Days ended with barefoot landings at villages like Sauwandarek, where the crew introduced the family to the region’s culture and Dunia Baru’s legacy of giving back—highlighted by the creation of a local Learning Center focused on conservation and education.
Back on board, the experience was complete with elegant dining by Chef Nyoman, who fused local spices with international flair, elevating each meal into a celebration of the surrounding seas.
Whether it’s diving in Komodo National Park, exploring Raja Ampat’s karst islands, or watching blacktip sharks from the tender, Dunia Baru invites guests to rediscover connection—between family, ocean, and self.
