Coral Triangle Safaris (CTS) was established in 2017 from a passion to explore this beautiful country, Indonesia, the world’s largest archipelago with over 18,000 islands. The best kept secret beaches and dive sites are only accessible by sea and one of the best ways to travel to them is on Sequoia, our handcrafted yacht. We understand that each guest is different and therefore, we craft a specific safari that will meet you family’s needs. Your choice of activities and interests will help define your safari whether it is venturing out to sea or relaxing across from a majestic island. Our goal is to help you and your family see and enjoy one of the world’s most beautiful places-The Coral Triangle-at the end of the earth-as safely and comfortably as possible.
Completed in 2017, Sequoia is a modern take on the classic wooden yacht. Named after the giant Sequoia tree, one of the oldest living organisms on earth, this handcrafted yacht was designed as an heirloom vessel for generations of families to enjoy. Using traditional, Indonesian Bugis boat construction, the hull and super structure are comprised or Ironwood and Teak. The interior fittings and mechanical components are integrated into a state of the art American engine room and electrical power systems. Custom designed light fixtures illuminate the night sky and the underwater lighting allow you to see some of the magic below. With Sequoia, East meets West with modern, custom-made amenities, melded with Indonesian tropical island beauty. You will be able to enjoy this remote island wonderland in complete comfort.

Sequoia is equipped with USA marine technology. We only use the most sophisticated, reliable, ecological, quiet, low emission – no smoke, efficient system which translates to a safer and more comfortable journey.
Equipped with 9 full scuba diving sets including 2 for children. The center features a Bauer Dive Mate compressor with large fill bank makes it possible to fill scuba tanks in a few minutes.
All divers are required to carry signaling flags and the Dive Master has a VHF (GPS) radio to use after resurfacing to communicate with the dive boat. This safety feature helps ensure that the Whaler can locate surfaced divers in an instant.
The 7 m (22 ft) Boston Whaler Dauntless is the primary mode of transportation for day trips and all scuba, snorkeling, tubing and waterskiing activities. The Mercury 225 HP OptiMax engine provides more than enough power achieving speeds of 75 kmh or 47 mph.
An additional smaller aluminum 5 m (17 ft) Tracker V16 is used for short journeys to shore when the Whaler is out so guests can go to shore at any time.
There are 6 separate 250W High Intensity Discharge Lights installed in the hull of Sequoia to give you nighttime illumination down to 20 m (60 ft).
These lights allow you to attract and view many fish. It also adds to the feeling of security as Sequoia is illuminated around its perimeter reducing the feeling of darkness in isolated bays and coves.
