Sea Kayaking
Take one of our sea kayaks and enjoy nature.
Carpe Diem offers two sea kayaks for our guests
After an eventful day going a quiet paddle is a relaxing way to unwind.
Maybe you'll see a turtle go by or simply enjoy the clear waters in the bays or hard to reach mangroves and experience all of the wildlife up close.
Stand Up Paddle Boards
Still feeling energetic?
Why not try one of Carpe Diem's Stand Up Paddleboards.
Stand up paddle boards (SUP) offer a fun, relaxing way to play on the water. With a minimum of gear, you can paddle in the ocean surf.
Paddle boarding delivers a full-body workout and thus has become a popular cross-training activity. And since you stand at your full height, you can enjoy unique views of everything from sea creatures to what’s on the horizon.

Wonderful Indonesia is home to some 17000 islands and as such we are never far away from a stunning beach.
Allow our crew to whisk you away to picture postcard beaches for some relaxation or exploration.
And whilst you experience these breathe taking natural treasures, we will set up a BBQ just in time for sunset.

Some examples would be a visit to the famous Kelimutu volcano in Flores with its three coloured lakes, a visit to Run Island in Banda which was famously once the home to the world's only supply of nutmeg, leading the British to trade it to the Dutch 1667 in return for New York in, a trip to a sea gypsy village or a walk with the dragons of Komodo, the world famous Pink Beach of Komodo or the breathtaking views of Piaynemo in Raja Ampat

A typical day would involve
6 o'clock rise for a 6:30 sunrise yoga and meditation session
Al Fresco breakfast at 8 tea, coffee, juices, breads, eggs, cheese and fruits.
After breakfast you have the option to enjoy a morning dive or simply stay on board and relax, kayak, snorkel, read anything really.
After the morning activity you are free to relax and use all the available facilities onboard or maybe simply chill out on deck in the sun before a light lunch is served at 12:30.
Mid afternoon, there will be a second scuba dive followed by an evening yoga and meditation session at 5.
After which al fresco dinner will be served on deck and you are free to enjoy a glass of whatever takes your fancy with your shipmates, fellow yogis and dive buddies.
