Special!  Shimmi Surf Charters

For the amazing price of $99 per day you can charter the Shimmi (price per person per day for a group of six for a minimum of 7 days).

How can we do this?

Self catering. Bring and cook your food and drinks (provisions are easy to buy from a modern supermarket in Bali before departure, we will assist you).

Owner-skippered yacht with no crew (The legendary Captain Gideon has more than 10 years Indo experience). Just you, your friends and the captain ... no-one else.

No crowds. Maximum six guests on board.

Modern 45ft catamaran. Engines and all safety equipment.

Wind power. When the SE trade winds blow, Shimmi easily sails at 10 knots (which is a big fuel saving).
