Indonesia, the world’s largest archipelagic nation, is unlocking new potential for marine tourism with significant developments in its marina and boating infrastructure. As the country positions itself as a premier destination for yachters, both domestic and international, these advancements signal a new era of seamless, secure, and enriched cruising experiences. At Kokoba Marine Indonesia, we are at the forefront of this transformation, offering strategic support and on-the-ground expertise for those ready to explore the Indonesian seas.
A Growing Vision for Marine Tourism
Indonesia’s Ministry of Tourism and Creative Economy has laid out an ambitious plan to attract high-value marine tourism, targeting yachters, divers, and ocean enthusiasts. With over 17,000 islands and an extensive coastline, the country is ideally suited to become a global marine tourism hub. Recent investments and government initiatives are focusing on improving marina facilities, easing clearance procedures, and enhancing port accessibility across key regions like Bali, Labuan Bajo, Raja Ampat, and the Riau Islands.
What This Means for Yacht Owners and Operators
The expansion of Indonesia’s marina network opens up numerous possibilities:
- Better Infrastructure: Modern berthing facilities, improved access to fuel and supplies, and enhanced security standards are making stops more convenient and reliable.
- Simplified Bureaucracy: Ongoing reforms aim to streamline customs, immigration, and quarantine (CIQ) processes, making it easier for foreign-flagged vessels to enter and cruise Indonesian waters legally.
- More Destinations, Less Hassle: With upgraded marinas and support services, yachters can now plan longer, more diverse routes throughout the archipelago without logistical headaches.
