Frequently asked questions
Which yachts fit 6 to 8 guests in Raja Ampat?+
Dewata (6 guests, 3 cabins), Fenides (up to 11 but works well for 6–8), Alila Purnama (10 guests, 5 cabins) and Silolona (up to 10 guests) all suit this group size on a private charter.
How much does a private yacht for 6–8 guests cost?+
Nightly rates range from about USD 6,045 (Dewata) to USD 15,500+ (Alila Purnama). Per-person cost typically drops to USD 750–2,200 per person per night depending on tier.
Is 6–8 guests a good group size for Raja Ampat?+
Yes — one of the most efficient group sizes. Yachts are cabin-matched, dive briefings stay personal and the yacht feels genuinely private rather than half-full.
What's the ideal length for a group of this size?+
7 nights gives you Central Raja Ampat plus one region (Misool or Wayag). 10 nights combines both. 5 nights suits shorter windows but limits geography.
Can 6–8 guests do mixed diving and non-diving?+
Yes — 3 divers + 3 snorkelers is a normal split. Yachts run two dive skiffs so divers and non-divers can go different directions.
How are the cabins usually configured?+
Most 6–8 guest yachts have a mix of doubles and twins, with one master cabin. Twin/double convertibles are available on some vessels — confirm at booking.
