Just the two of you, a skipper and crew

You decide when to linger

A private day around Trawangan, Meno and Air built on a snorkel-for-two turtle stop, a quiet Meno beach landing and a champagne-optional sunset cruise. You are not sharing a bench with twenty strangers.

A Gili Islands honeymoon boat charter is a private, per-boat day trip for two — a turtle snorkel stop, a quiet Meno beach landing and a sunset cruise, with the route and pace yours.

  • You pay for the vessel, not two seats on someone else's schedule.
  • Privacy, timing and the small romantic details a fixed group tour cannot bend to.
  • Meno is the quiet, undeveloped middle island — which is why it anchors almost every honeymoon route.
  • Want forty extra minutes over the coral instead of racing to the next mooring? That is your call.

Three shapes for two people

Which romantic route suits you

All run best in calm, clear water — practically, the May to September dry window. Every rate is operator-set and confirmed only after we check boat availability for your date.

Sunset cruise for two

Ask for price per boat

  • 2–3 hours
  • Late afternoon off Trawangan's west side
  • Drinks aboard
  • Sunset over the Mount Agung horizon

Meno quiet-beach half day

Most asked for

Ask for price per boat

  • 4–5 hours
  • A turtle-snorkel stop
  • The underwater statues
  • A private beach landing on Meno

Three-island romance

Ask for price per boat

  • 6–7 hours
  • Trawangan facilities
  • Meno beach plus turtle and statue snorkel
  • Air reef stop and a sunset return

The snorkel highlights are real draws, but the honest caveat stands: wild turtle sightings are never guaranteed, whatever the season or the skipper's local knowledge.

The charter is the canvas

Touches you can request

These are what make it a honeymoon rather than a boat ride. All arranged on request and priced separately.

Sunset drinks package

Sparkling wine or soft drinks with light bites aboard. Confirm dietary needs when you enquire.

Private beach picnic

A set-up on a quiet Meno stretch with mat, shade and lunch for two. Weather-dependent, and delivered by boat.

Proposal or vow setup

Discreet flowers and a private moment, timed with your skipper. Share the plan early so the crew can stage it quietly.

In-water photos for two

Snorkel or on-deck couple photography, subject to a photographer being free on your date.

Extended snorkel time

Additional guided reef time at your favourite stop. Adds to the total charter hours.

When it feels best

May to August brings clear skies and warm weather, with June and July quite busy — book well ahead.

September still has good weather with the odd shower and is a quieter, better-value month, which many couples prefer.

October to April is not recommended, as regular rainfall can disrupt travel and roughen the seas.

If your honeymoon falls during Ramadan, expect a calmer island atmosphere — some shops close and beach parties pause, which can make a sunset cruise feel even more private but shifts your dining options.

Five steps

How booking works

  1. Message us

    Your dates, the number of guests, and which itinerary appeals.

  2. Get a tailored quote

    We check boat availability for your date and confirm a per-boat price plus any add-ons. Nothing is locked until you approve it.

  3. Confirm the details

    Flag a proposal, an anniversary, dietary needs or a preferred sunset timing so the crew can prepare quietly in advance.

  4. Secure the date

    Follow the confirmation and deposit steps; your slot and boat are then reserved.

  5. Meet at the jetty

    Your skipper meets you at the agreed jetty — no cars, so pickup is on foot from the pier.

Getting here: fly Bali to Lombok in about forty minutes, then roughly two hours by car to Bangsal, then twenty to thirty minutes by boat. Fast boats also run daily from Padang Bai, Serangan and Amed, crossing in about 1.5 to 2.5 hours.
