The King Millenium II is an aluminium catamaran built in Australia in 1995 and refurbished in 2007 specifically for surf charters.
She's faster than most boats operating in the region, with a cruising speed of 12-15 knots. Being a catamaran, she's also more stable than a mono hull and also safer. And with 4 triple share a/c cabins that each have their own TV and DVD player you'll be able to fully relax in between sessions. And if you're not already feeling like a rock star, then take the jet ski* out for a spin! Trips are to the Mentawais, Telos, Nias and beyond!
The King Millenium 2 has plenty of interior and exterior space to relax in. And whats more is that you can expect a great nights sleep. Catamarans are renowned to be far more sturdy thanks to their double hull that reduce "swaying" when anchored up. Not only will you have a better nights sleep than the majority of other charter guests in the region (that are staying aboard a mono hull) - but you'll probably get less seas sick too.
Cabins includes:
* 12 beds (A/C)
* 4 x private "triple" share cabins
* Full air conditioning
* Each private cabin comes with its own TV and DVD player
The catamaran also features a large interior living room with large couch, a plasma screen TV, DVD, Wii gaming console and a home cinema system.
There are also several exterior chill areas to relax in. The main exterior deck, at the back of the boat is the main spot to relax in and the deck below is where your meals are served. At the front of the boat there are 2 additional decks with seating.
Facilities and Equipment:
* Large lounge with TV with DVD player
* 2 x bathrooms
* Home cinema system
* Wii gaming console
* 2 back decks and 2 fore decks, all with shading
Included in all packages:
* Daily meals
* Snacks, fruit Juices & soft drinks
* Unlimited Tea, Coffee and Water
* 2 beers pp / day
3 large, healthy delicious meals are served each day. A mix of Indonesian and Western/European cuisine served for breakfast, lunch & dinner.
Vegetarians can be catered for with prior notice.
A variety of snacks are also served in between meals. Each serving is based around fresh local produce such as fish, fruit, vegetables, pasta and meat. Guests are entitled as many fresh fruit juices, soft drinks and bottled water as they want within a reasonable limit.
The package includes 2 daily beers; all extra beers are paid at local prices.
The Crew of The King Millennium 2 has many years of experience in surf charters. All the crew speak English and treat the guests such that they feel at home.

Thank you to David, Poti and the crew on the KM2 for a great surf trip. We scored some epic surf at the bush, perfect macas, super fun HTs and pumping lances left. We also scored some heavy uncrowded waves down south and tonnes of fun sessions around playgrounds. The boat was great. The food delicious. We got taken care of as we'd hoped. Highly recommended! Rich
Jimmy Hodge
Thanks to Poti and the crew for delivering the goods. Super knowledgeable and experienced - definitely a well-oiled operation. The boat itself was epic & loved the fact it was a catamaran. Slept like a dream each night too despite Beno's snoring lol! Food was tasty and plenty of it. Heaps of snacks too. We just couldn't fault the trip at all. We'll be back, terima kasih!
