Mona Lisa is a traditional wooden “phinisi” schooner. Built in 1996, she was completely refurbished in 2006 with a modern teak wooden interior and the latest navigational and safety equipment. She is designed to comfortably lodge 12 people in six teakwood cabins. Her black-sailed silhouette is a well-known sight in the area.
T he trips combine leisure sailing and diving in a way that makes Mona Lisa an ideal choice for both divers and non-divers; there is something for everyone. Dives are organized up to 5 times a day and are for all tastes and levels. Most dive sites are available for fantastic snorkeling and our guests also enjoy private excursions on white sand beaches, fishing and trekking escorted by park rangers to discover the wildlife on the islands. You will not be rushed either – Mona Lisa sets sails from Labuan Bajo in Flores, which eliminates the time-consuming and potentially boring traversals from Bali and saves more of your precious time for cruising around the islands at a relaxed pace. To arrive at Labuan Bajo, you will take a domestic flight from Bali.
There are six cabins, some of which can be configured either as double or twin share. Single travelers are catered for, provided that they are willing to share a twin cabin with another single guest. All cabins are air-conditioned and have an en-suite bathroom with a hot shower and a sink.
The teak interiors lend the ship a warm and welcoming atmosphere. The main deck comprises a salon which doubles as the dining room, and a library offering a collection of books about the local fauna, flora and history. There is also a TV and a DVD player for immediate viewing of your photos. The bar offers beer, wine and other alcoholic drinks. Mineral water, soft drinks, coffee, and tea are available 24h. On the upper deck there are deck chairs and space for relaxing both in the sun as well as in the shade. Meals are of international standard with a focus on seafood.
M ona Lisa carries sets of dive gear for rent, and Nitrox is also available at an extra cost (unlimited nitrox dives over seven days). The use of dive tanks and weights, snorkeling gear, sea kayaks, and fishing gear is included.
Mona Lisa has an Indonesian crew of nine and a multilingual cruise director, as well as an experienced dive master who knows the sites well.
Our main concern is safety on board. The vessel is fitted with all internationally required safety equipment and a well appointed first-aid box to treat all kinds of minor injuries. We have an agreement with an air-charter company in Bali using a sea-plane in case of emergency evacuation.
