The last two to four hours of daylight
Private Sunset Dinner Cruise from Benoa Harbour
A private sunset dinner cruise from Benoa Harbour reserves a chartered yacht exclusively for your party for the last two to four hours of daylight, with a plated dinner served on board while the sun drops behind Bali's southern coastline.
What the charter includes
The vessel, the dinner, the route
Inclusions vary slightly between operators, but a properly arranged sunset dinner charter from Benoa covers exclusive use of the vessel, a licensed captain and service crew, fuel, marina and harbour fees, a welcome drink on boarding, a plated dinner of three to four courses, and still water and soft drinks throughout.
Motor yachts suit couples and groups of up to eight who want speed, air-conditioned interiors and a foredeck for the sunset itself. Sailing catamarans carry larger parties comfortably and offer more stable deck space for a seated dinner.
Dinner is a set plated menu agreed before the charter, prepared either in the vessel’s galley or finished on board by the crew, depending on the boat. The standard route runs out of the Benoa channel and along the Serangan and Nusa Dua coastline, holding position in open water for sunset before turning back after dark.

Good to know
Frequently asked questions
What time does the cruise depart and return?
Most charters board between 4:00 and 4:30 PM so you are on open water well before sunset, which occurs between 6:00 and 6:45 PM depending on the month.
How many guests can join a private dinner cruise?
Dinner service works best for two to twelve guests, which is the sweet spot for a plated meal with attentive crew.
What happens if the weather turns bad?
The captain has final authority on safety. If conditions rule out sailing, the standard practice among the operators we book is to reschedule to another evening or refund according to the terms you received at booking.
Can you arrange a proposal, anniversary or birthday setup on board?
Yes. Deck decoration, flowers, a celebration cake, personalised menus and a photographer are all regular requests.
Can the menu be adjusted for dietary requirements?
Yes. Menus are fixed in advance, which is exactly why adjustments are easy: vegetarian, vegan, halal, gluten-free and allergy-specific versions are confirmed at booking.
Are hotel transfers included in the charter price?
Usually not: charter rates cover the vessel, crew and dinner.
