AQUA BLU – Unravelling the secrets of the Banda Sea Aqua Blu is the first western-style superyacht to be based year-round in Indonesia, unlocking a region of more than 18,000 islands scattered across the heart of the Coral Triangle. This is a cruising ground like no other, where jungle-cloaked volcanoes rise from the sea, coral reefs blaze with colour, and ancient spice routes still pulse with life. Remote, rich in culture, and wildly biodiverse, it’s a part of the world few yachts reach.
Interior living – A sanctuary at sea Aqua Blu’s interiors bear the unmistakable signature of Cor D. Rover, the acclaimed Dutch designer behind some of the world’s most iconic superyachts. His vision brings a sense of elegance to the vessel’s light-filled spaces. Guests can sip cocktails in the sky lounge bar as the sun sets, lose track of time in the library, or settle into the cosy TV room for a relaxed evening. For those seeking even deeper relaxation, a Balinese spa offers a tranquil escape inspired by the healing traditions of the region.
