The Nongsa Neptune Regatta is back from its 2 year COVID hiatus with over 20 yachts and power boats converging for the annual race to the Equator! The popular island-hopping style regatta has had a strong following in the Southeast Asian yachting community, suitable for sailing and power boats of all sizes, be it, beginners or experienced sailors, the regatta also takes participants on a voyage through virgin sailing waters of great splendour.

The Nongsa Neptune Regatta takes place entirely in Indonesian waters with a start and finish at Nongsa Point Marina (N01°11’.90 E104°05’.80), the passage race days will take participants through a multitude of tropical islands of all shapes and sizes leading to the jump-off point for the equator Pulau Sikeling (N0°08’.00 E104°13’.98) with a sprint race over the equator.

A traditional line-crossing ceremony with King Neptune will either be something you’ll never forget or possibly something you can’t remember the next day, no matter what, you’ll meet great people with plenty of stories to share.

The Nongsa Neptune Regatta is unmatched on the sailing calendar, a yachting event not to be missed, to find out more email: marina@nongsapointmarina.com
