A geological masterpiece of karst formations rising from emerald water — a focused private-phinisi day expedition to Wayag, accessed with precision and luxury.

From the Helm
Wayag is not simply a collection of islands — it is a labyrinth of karst formations sculpted by millennia of ocean and wind, its iconic conical peaks emerging from emerald waters in a landscape unlike anywhere on Earth.
The passage itself is part of the narrative: calm, nutrient-rich waters and verdant islandscapes prepare you for the climax — ascending a designated viewpoint to reveal the intricate tapestry of lagoons and islets below, with pristine snorkelling in the surrounding bays.
How We Craft It
Day trips depart from Waisai (the capital), close to Wayag — far less transit than from Sorong. We arrange seamless high-speed Sorong–Waisai transfers and coordinate all permits in advance, maximising your exploration window.
Exquisitely appointed 18–25 m luxury phinisis (or high-performance tenders) configured for day excursions — stable yet nimble for Wayag’s intricate waterways, comfortably 6–12 guests, with shaded lounging and modern amenities.
Seasoned crews with intimate local knowledge for safe passage and the viewpoint ascent, a dedicated chef serving a bespoke menu of fresh local seafood, and safety equipped beyond regulation.
Transparent Investment
Premium 20 m phinisi · up to 8 guests · full day
