KORA Phinisi Yacht sailing beyond the horizon in Komodo National Park
Our Story

Beyond The
Horizon.

Redefining luxury expeditions through the untamed beauty of Komodo National Park and the Indonesian archipelago.

Koral & Ora

KORA represents the delicate harmony between the vibrant life beneath the surface and the rugged majesty of the land.

Born from a deep reverence for the ocean, KORA—uniting Koral (the living coral gardens) and Ora (the indigenous name for the Komodo dragon)—was established with a singular vision: to offer discerning travelers a gateway to Indonesia's most pristine marine sanctuary in effortless comfort.

We believe that true luxury lies in the privilege of unhurried access—standing atop Padar's volcanic ridges at dawn, drifting alongside gentle manta rays, and retreating to a handcrafted floating sanctuary as thousands of flying foxes cross the dusk sky.

The Heritage

The Phinisi Legacy

Every vessel in the KORA fleet—Kanha Citta, Kanha Loka, and Kanha Natha—is a living tribute to UNESCO-recognized Indonesian maritime craftsmanship. Handcrafted by master boatwrights of the Bugis-Makassar tribes in South Sulawesi, our schooners are built using ancestral techniques passed down through generations.

Constructed from dense tropical Ironwood and aged Teak, these majestic vessels once sailed the historic spice routes. Today, they are custom-engineered with modern marine navigation, panoramic ocean-view suites, and expansive teak sundecks.
