About Panunee

The Panunee is a luxury yacht built for year-round diving in Indonesia, and her range is the reason to pay attention. Itineraries reach Komodo, Raja Ampat, Cenderawasih Bay and Alor, with dive sites including Crystal Rock, Castle Rock, Batu Balong and Manta Alley inside Komodo National Park, plus the Banda Sea, Gunung Api and the Dampier Strait. Round trips from Labuan Bajo run seven nights and roughly 18 dives.

What you'll see below

Castle Rock's sea fans hide pygmy seahorses while schools of barracuda, trevally and mackerel pass overhead, and white tips, black tips and gray reef sharks patrol the blue. Sebayour rewards macro hunters with jawfish, leaffish, bubble coral shrimps and porcelain crabs; Bidadari's stone towers are draped in hard and soft corals, with nudibranchs and bumphead parrotfish working the slope.

She was designed by divers for divers. The dive deck is shaded, with rinse hoses, DIN adaptors, tenders and sidemount support, and Nitrox is available on board. Between dives there's an air-conditioned saloon, a sun deck, a camera station with separate rinse, outdoor dining and a BBQ area — and an experienced chef handling the cooking.
