Median and range, by yacht category
Median rather than mean, because two ultra-luxury vessels would otherwise pull the average well above anything most groups book. The per-berth column is the nightly rate divided by full occupancy.

Charter fee only. A minimum charter value of US$15,000 applies over a general five-night minimum, and the marine park permit, diving, premium alcohol, Sorong transfers and crew gratuity sit on top.
Method
Every rate in this index was collected directly from the yacht’s owner or managing operator. None comes from a broker feed and none carries a markup. Rates are whole-yacht nightly rates in USD for the 2026/27 season, which runs 2026-10-01 to 2027-04-30.
- What is counted. The 18 yachts with a published nightly rate. Yachts quoting on request are included in the fleet total and excluded from every price figure, rather than estimated.
- What the rate covers. The yacht, crew, all meals, soft drinks, snorkelling equipment, tenders and standard water toys. Fuel is included on shorter itineraries and charged as an advance provisioning allowance on some larger yachts.
- What it excludes. The Raja Ampat marine park permit, diving, premium alcohol, transfers to and from Sorong, and crew gratuity.
- Per berth. Nightly rate divided by maximum guests. It is a ceiling, not a price: a part-filled yacht costs more per person.
- Revision. Recomputed from the fleet data on every deploy, so these are the figures we would quote from today. Availability and pricing are reconfirmed with the owner before any quote.

About the index
What is the median nightly rate for a private yacht in Raja Ampat?
+
Across the 18 yachts in this index with a published rate, the median whole-yacht nightly rate is USD 10,790. The range runs from USD 4,450 on Anne Bonny to USD 27,000 on Lamima. Median is used rather than mean because two ultra-luxury vessels would otherwise drag the average well above anything most groups actually book.
How is this index compiled?
+
Rates come directly from each yacht owner or managing operator, not from a broker feed, and carry no markup. Every rate is a whole-yacht nightly rate in USD for the 2026/27 season, excluding the marine park permit, diving, premium alcohol, Sorong transfers and crew gratuity. Yachts without a published rate are counted in the fleet total but excluded from every price calculation rather than estimated.
Why is the per-person figure lower on larger yachts?
+
Because nightly rates do not scale with berths. The per-berth figures in the table are the nightly rate divided by full occupancy, and on this fleet that works out at USD 803 to USD 1,625 per person per night. Half-filling a larger yacht is often cheaper per person than filling a smaller one, which is the single most counter-intuitive thing about pricing a Raja Ampat charter.
How often is the index updated?
+
It is recomputed from the fleet data on every deploy, so the figures on this page are the figures we would quote from on the day you read it. The season window the rates apply to is shown next to them, and rates are reconfirmed with the owner before any quote is issued.
