The Short Answer
USD 10,600 for the whole boat with one to twelve guests in 2026, USD 12,000 for thirteen to eighteen. In 2027 the same charter is USD 11,700 and USD 13,100.
Days one to three follow the 3D2N route. Day four adds Rangko Cave, Seraya Island and Sabolo or Bidadari before the run back to Labuan Bajo. Park fees are settled separately.
The extra night is what turns a checklist into a holiday: the same sites, but with time to swim twice, and a slower morning for anyone travelling with children.

The Route
Day 1The first stop out of Labuan Bajo. A short climb, then the photo session everyone starts the trip with.
Day 1Sheltered water and a shallow reef — the afternoon snorkel that follows lunch aboard.
Day 1Sunset, then thousands of flying foxes lifting off the mangroves at once.
Day 2Climbed at 06:00, before breakfast. Three bays, one ridge, the best light of the day.
Day 2Crushed red coral against turquoise. Snorkel straight off the tender.
Day 2A ranger-guided trek at Loh Liang. Dragons on their own ground.
Day 2A sandbar that surfaces with the tide. An hour, all of it photographed.
Day 2Karang Makassar, where the current brings the mantas through.
Day 3A drift over turtle-grass and coral heads on the way back east.
Day 3A long snorkel on the third morning, with no rush to be anywhere.
Day 4Shallow water straight off the jetty on the final morning, before the run home.

Published open-trip departures on Catnazse are the 3D2N. The four-day itinerary runs as a private charter, so you take the whole boat and choose the date.
Generally yes. The stops are the same, but the extra night removes the pressure from the second morning, and there is more time in the water between transfers.
Catnazse is a snorkelling liveaboard — there is no compressor or dive deck on board. The booking desk can arrange diving separately with a licensed Labuan Bajo centre.
Yes. Destinations may change depending on weather and field conditions, for your safety and comfort, and adjustments may occur in cases of force majeure.
