Elbark
The wooden phinisi Elbark under full sail at golden hour off the Komodo islands

Komodo · Labuan Bajo, Indonesia

Elbark, a handcrafted phinisi for the Komodo sea.

Private charters and small open trips aboard a traditional wooden sailing yacht — sunrise dives, pink beaches, and warm Indonesian hospitality.

Elbark is a luxury wooden phinisi sailing yacht based in Labuan Bajo, offering private charters and small-group open trips through Komodo National Park in eastern Indonesia. She is built for couples, families, and small groups of divers and travellers who want an unhurried island journey — Komodo dragons, manta rays, and Padar sunsets — with a full crew handling every meal, dive, and anchorage. Sailings run year-round from Labuan Bajo, from two-day escapes to longer explorer voyages.
