Special Snorkel Cruise

Keep the Wow's coming

Snorkeling is one of the most accessible ways to experience Indonesia’s vibrant marine life, and with Pindito, you don’t have to be a diver to explore the ocean. Our special snorkel cruises are designed for those who prefer to stay on the surface while still encountering breathtaking coral reefs, schooling fish, and incredible marine biodiversity.

The best part? Snorkeling adventures can be integrated into any of our existing itineraries. Whether it’s Raja Ampat, Komodo, Banda Sea, or beyond, we tailor each trip to ensure snorkelers have access to the best sites alongside divers. With expert guides, comfortable water access, and carefully planned excursions, every journey is designed to make the most of what Indonesia’s waters have to offer.

Raja Ampat

Traveling on a live-aboard dedicated to snorkeling is a dream-come-true. It is a remarkable way to get to remote and pristine reefs that would be impossible to reach otherwise. Most live-aboards are for divers only and focus largely on deeper reefs. The Pindito crew has a designed a special trip for us that will feature shallow reef systems that highlight the marine diversity of this astonishingly beautiful area. It’s so special to be on a live-aboard because the underwater scenery and marine life is ever changing! You unpack once. Then you live in your bathing suit and shorts for 10 days in a relaxed and friendly atmosphere. There is wonderful camaraderie on board as everyone is sharing the same passion. Area highlights include pygmy seahorses, mandarin fish, wobbegongs, turtles, majestic mantas and even dolphins!

The astonishing variety of marine life is staggering. The diversity of marine habitats translates to wildly different snorkelling experiences. We can experience snorkelling with large groups of mantas or Whale Sharks in Saleh bay as they feed and barrel role with ease through the blue. We may swim through large schools of fish Fusiliers, surgeons, banner fish, triggerfish and squadrons of jacks and barracuda. You will be delighted by huge sea fans, sponges, and beautiful coral gardens. Our day-to-day itinerary will be dependent on wind and sea conditions to ensure we are in the best place at the best time. Our 11 days will be full of fantastic snorkelling, village visits and relaxing time on board with other like-minded adventurers.

This special cruise offers guests a glimpse into the world of the largest mammals on earth. Learn incredible details from a qualified expert on whales and dolphins and watch them with your own eyes! The crew is organized into “observation teams” who also keep a sharp eye on the water surface for blows or other signs of whale activity, as some species can’t be located by acoustics alone. The Whale expert and MV Pindito knows the areas that are preferred by these large marine mammals (including sperm, Bryde’s and orcas or killer whales) and both our long experience and trained eyes do the rest. On this cruise we offer approx. 24 dives.
