Boat Rental Phinisi
Have you ever dreamed what you would do on a deserted island. Have you
ever dreamed about sailing on a pirate ship around crystal clear
waters!!! Who would you want with you, what would you love to eat, what
special fantasy can you dream up!

  | The
truth is we can give you access to numerous completely deserted islands.
You can pick your place from the charts; we will land you on shore with
chairs, umbrellas, cold drinks/food, and a handheld radio. You decide
how long you stay and what you want to do. Provide the dream and we will
insure the details. This may sound too good to be true but it is both possible and easy to access!!!! The Bugis Pirate Ship "Tidak Apapa" wants sailors with dreams to come and explore/adventure with us!!! Located 1 hour flight from Bali in the port city of Makassar, South Sulawesi, you will be on the boat and looking at islands within 1 hour of landing. If Scuba Diving is your dream we are ready to please. Kodingareng Keke is our nearest jewel, 10 km. from the city, with great diving. Kapoposang is rich in diversity with dramatic steep walls. Turtles, Mantas, even the occasional Silvertip Shark (yes I said silvertip) are there. Taka Bakang is an Atoll 60 miles offshore with a Submarine wreck. Do not forget the fishing is as great as the diving. |
