Why Senja works for Raja Ampat

Senja is a 28-metre two-masted phinisi built from Sulawesi ironwood and teak, with four ensuite cabins for up to eight guests and a crew of eight. Her wide sundeck, shaded aft lounge and forward bowsprit make her a natural for slow-paced Raja Ampat itineraries — dropping anchor off uninhabited islands, running the tender to hidden reefs, and lighting up at night over glass-calm bays.
