Bali Hai Cruises · Benoa Harbour

Dinner on the water, seven couples at most

Bali Hai Cruises takes a 64-foot catamaran out of Benoa Harbour towards Nusa Dua for a five-course dinner with a live acoustic band. Couples pick it because there are seven couples on board at most, which feels close to private without the cost of chartering a boat.

Romantic Five-Course Dinner Cruise from Benoa

About this experience

You arrive at Benoa Harbour to a welcome drink and a floral lei, then board a 64-foot catamaran strung with lights. It sails towards Nusa Dua while dinner is served: five courses with a tropical theme. A three-piece acoustic band with a saxophonist plays and takes requests. The whole outing lasts about 3 hours, around 2.5 of them on the water.

It is a shared cruise, but a small one. The listing caps it at seven couples, and one guest even described it as a private experience. Drinks after the welcome drink are bought on board, so budget for wine. Return transfers in south Bali depend on the option you choose.

Two small things to remember. Bring a passport or ID; the listing asks for it at the harbour. And the dinner menu is set, so tell the crew about allergies when you book. A guest with an allergy says they handled it easily.
