**A Bali private boat charter runs roughly IDR 8,000,000 to IDR 44,500,000 (about USD 500-2,500) for a full private day, priced per boat rather than per person. Your rate tracks vessel size, on-board comfort and the route you pick to Nusa Penida, Nusa Lembongan or the south-Bali coast. All figures are as of 2026 and subject to change.**

How much does a Bali private boat charter cost per day?
Per-day charter pricing is quoted for the whole boat. Ten guests or two, the boat costs the same — you’re renting the vessel, captain and crew for the day. The table below pulls together published “start from” full-day rates from named Bali operators, most of them for the standard Sanur-to-Nusa Penida day.
| Vessel | Guests | Full-day rate (IDR) | Approx USD | Source (as of 2026) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 12m speedboat | up to ~12 | from 8,000,000 | ~500 | Sanur Water Activities |
| 13m semi-yacht | up to ~15 | from 9,000,000 | ~560 | Sanur Water Activities |
| Monohull SW3 | 15 | 11,900,000 | ~740 | Parahu.com |
| Monohull RS | 12 | 16,500,000 | ~1,000 | Parahu.com |
| Queen 10 | 10 | 18,000,000 | ~1,090 | Parahu.com |
| Mironia | 12 | 21,500,000 | ~1,300 | Parahu.com |
| KFISH | 12 | 23,000,000 | ~1,390 | Parahu.com |
| Queen 18 | 15 | 28,000,000 | ~1,700 | Parahu.com |
| Catamaran JEM | 14 | 34,500,000 | ~2,090 | Parahu.com |
| Forever Lux | 12 | 42,900,000 | ~2,500 | Parahu.com |
| JA (25 pax base) | 35 | 44,500,000 | ~2,500 | Parahu.com |
Parahu.com’s published Nusa Penida day-charter list is where most of these fixed per-boat numbers come from, and a few of its boats add per-head charges above a base group size — the RHI, for example, is quoted at IDR 18,500,000 for 7 guests with each extra guest at IDR 1,550,000, and the 35-seat JA adds IDR 1,000,000 per guest above 25. Sanur Water Activities (Heaven’s Corner) supplies the entry-level end, labelling its trips “Private speed boat from Bali” and listing the 13m semi-yacht with an air-con cabin, karaoke and flat TV, and the 12m speedboat with a Bluetooth speaker and a sun deck with bean bags.
USD figures are approximate and move with the exchange rate; treat the IDR numbers as the anchor.
What does a per-day rate include — and exclude?
Inclusions vary by boat, so confirm every line on your quote. As a working rule, a full-day private charter usually covers:
- Private, exclusive use of the whole boat for the day
- Captain and crew, fuel and standard safety gear
- Snorkel equipment and drinking water
- The boat’s own comfort features — for instance, the 13m semi-yacht’s air-con cabin per Sanur Water Activities, or a speedboat’s sun deck
Commonly billed separately, or only on request:
- Hotel pickup and drop-off — Sanur Water Activities charges an extra IDR 250,000 per car
- Lunch, unless the itinerary states it (the same operator’s sample day includes lunch at Maruti Beach Club)
- The Nusa Penida land tour — car hire plus Kelingking, Broken Beach and Angel Billabong entrance fees
- Marine and park fees, plus crew gratuities
How do per-day prices compare across Bali operators?
Beyond the table above, a few named operators give useful reference points. Bluuu Tours lists private Nusa Penida yacht tours from IDR 13,000,000 (about USD 750) per boat. Blue Marlin Bali advertises its Accura 39 from USD 750 for a four-hour sunset or coastal cruise and USD 950 for an eight-hour full day to Nusa Penida, with sunset charters from USD 750 per boat for up to 17 guests.
One contrast matters for your budget. A Viator Nusa Penida premium day is listed from USD 73.62 per person, with private hotel pickup at IDR 300,000 per car each way for up to five people. That’s the per-seat model — you share a scheduled boat and pay a head count. A whole-boat charter is the opposite: one price, the boat is yours, and no strangers join your day. For a couple, a shared per-person tour is often cheaper; for a family or a group of six-plus, the per-boat rate is usually the better value and always the more private one.
What does a full private day actually look like?
Here is a real Sanur-to-Nusa Penida schedule as published by Sanur Water Activities. The crossing from Sanur to Nusa Penida runs roughly 30 to 45 minutes by speedboat.
| Time | Stop |
|---|---|
| 07:00 | Hotel pickup (extra IDR 250,000 per car) |
| 08:00 | Briefing at the Sanur counter |
| 08:30 | Sailing |
| 09:30 | Swim with manta rays at Manta Bay / Manta Point |
| 10:30 & 11:30 | Snorkel sessions (Crystal Bay, Toyapakeh) |
| 12:00 | Lunch at Maruti Beach Club |
| 14:00 | Kelingking Beach |
| 15:00 | Broken Beach |
| 16:00 | Final snorkel |
| 17:00 | Sail back |
| 17:45 | Hotel drop-off |
Your day is yours to reshape. Groups swap in the Nusa Lembongan side — the Yellow Bridge and the mangroves — or spend the whole charter along the south-Bali coast past Uluwatu, Jimbaran Bay, Tanjung Benoa and Nusa Dua. Manta sightings and weather are never guaranteed; a good captain reads conditions and moves the plan to match.

Bali private boat charter per day price FAQs
Is the price really per boat, not per person? Yes. A private charter is quoted for the whole vessel for the day. Adding guests only changes the price on boats that publish a per-head charge above a base group size, and your quote will state that clearly.
How far ahead should I book? Peak season and holidays sell out the better boats first, so lock your date as early as you can. Off-peak, a few days’ notice is usually enough — message us and we’ll confirm live availability.
