Going even Further: What awaits Fenides Liveaboard in 2026
“As we look ahead to the 2026–2027 season, we are excited to share our newest plans for November 2026 through April 2027”, announces Fenides Liveaboard.
“This year, we are venturing even deeper into one of Indonesia’s most untouched frontiers: Halmahera”.
For guests seeking something truly outside the box, the upcoming expeditions combine adventure, culture, and effortless leisure in a way that only Fenides can deliver.
Fenides Liveaboard will explore remote villages, meet local communities, chase waterfalls hidden in the jungle, and discover pristine snorkelling and diving in areas rarely visited by anyone.
Surfers can expect uncrowded waves and immaculate reef setups, far away from the usual routes.
These journeys will operate either from Bitung, just a short transfer from Manado International Airport, or from Ternate, depending on the chosen route.
The recommended itinerary is a 12-night voyage starting in Manado, the perfect length for a proper exploration of the deep northern Moluccas.
Sumba Awaits: Off the Beaten Path Luxury for May to September
Looking ahead to the May-September season, Fenides Liveaboard would like to share a set of itinerary ideas that step away from the expected and take you into one of Indonesia’s most captivating regions.
Sumba has been gaining attention for all the right reasons. It is wild, beautiful, culturally rich, and wonderfully untouched.
If you are truly seeking something truly outside the box, Sumba offers an experience that feels both adventurous and effortlessly glamorous. Horseback rides on sweeping beaches, dramatic waterfalls tucked into hidden valleys, traditional villages preserved by ancient customs, and a coastline brushed by perfect surf. It is a place for travellers who want freedom, authenticity, and space.
The best time to visit Sumba is from May to September. These months bring warm, dry weather and crystal clear conditions that allow the island’s landscapes and colours to shine. This is also the prime swell season, with long-period Indian Ocean waves arriving consistently along Sumba’s untouched coast. It is perfect for surfers seeking quality without crowds.
A 7-night Sumba itinerary works beautifully. For those looking to elevate the journey even further, Fenides Liveaboard recommend combining Sumba with Komodo National Park for a 10-night expedition that blends culture, beaches, dragons, manta rays, reefs, and wide open horizons.
