The boat comes with custom sea hammocks, gently suspended just above the water, and a 'tamago' floatie for those moments when you just want to kick back and enjoy the sunset

Additionally, there's a cosy lounge area on the deck, perfect for sipping your favourite drink as you soak in the breathtaking views.

The entire boat can accommodate up to six guests.

So, you can call your best buds and book a private cruise, or opt for a shared cruise and meet new friends!

There are three cabins available with two queen-sized beds and two single beds.

Blankets, wall sockets, towels, a bathroom, privacy blinds, and fans are provided. Since it can get pretty chilly at night, thick blankets are available upon request.

'Thicc', buttery, fresh pancakes await you in the morning.

Throughout your stay, they offer non-alcoholic beverages. However, you're free to bring along your own alcohol ('corkage fee' is one jump off the boat :P).
