Navila Liveaboard

The boat as her owner photographs her

Updated 3 November 2026

This Navila photo gallery holds 42 photographs of the cabins, the deck, the jacuzzi and the dining room. All 42 were taken for the boat's owner and are resized only: no generated images, no composites, no guest faces. We are adding our own guests' pictures as they arrive.

Photographs supplied by the operator

Every photograph in the gallery below belongs to the owner's own catalogue. They show the two Master cabins and the Private cabins, the indoor dining room and the jacuzzi. They show the relax areas at the bow, the middle and the stern, and the hull at anchor and from the air.

We have resized them for the page and changed nothing else: no generated images, no composites and no guests' faces.

A tap on any picture opens it larger, and the arrows move you on to the next one, through all forty-two photographs of the cabins, the deck and the dining room.

What the pictures leave out

A photograph is a decision about what to show, and a few things stay outside the frame. We list them so that you are not left to guess.

Cabin size. A wide lens makes any room look larger, so judge a cabin by its bed, its bathroom and its window.
The sea. Every image is taken in good light. Weather, swell and the captain's choice of anchorage vary with the day.
Services. A picture of the jacuzzi shows the tub on deck. A picture of the lounge does not promise a signal for the internet on board, which depends on where the boat is.

What the pictures do show truthfully is the arrangement itself: one double bed in each cabin, a bathroom behind a door of its own, teak, a long dining table and shaded places to sit.

Pictures we have yet to receive

The gallery is the owner's view of the boat. A guest's view is different, and more useful: the cabin with luggage in it, the deck at dusk, the towel on the rail. We are collecting those, and they will be added here as they come.

Each picture from a guest is used only with permission, which we ask for in writing, and we leave faces out. We name no one beyond a first name when a guest wishes to be named.

If you travel on Navila and take photographs you are glad of, send them to the same WhatsApp thread after you return. We will ask before anything is published, and you can say no without giving a reason.
