BIYC Reopens!
The historic Banyuwangi International Yacht Club (BIYC) has officially reopened its doors to the global sailing community, marking a new chapter for maritime tourism in East Java.
The revival comes under new management and through a strategic partnership with PT Pelindo Property Indonesia, ending a nine-month operational hiatus.
The reopening was celebrated by hosting a welcome ceremony for the international sailing expedition "Sail to Indonesia 2025." The club's marina welcomed a fleet of yachts from numerous countries, including France, the United Kingdom, Italy, Denmark, Russia, the Netherlands, and Australia.
The Regent of Banyuwangi, Ipuk Fiestiandani Azwar Anas, officiated the event, highlighting its significance for the region. "The revival of BIYC is a landmark event, heralding a new era for marine tourism and premium leisure in East Java," Mr. Regent stated.
The welcome ceremony featured traditional dance performances, held as a gesture of respect for the international guests. The visiting sailors were in Banyuwangi from October 4-7, 2025, using the stopover to explore the region's renowned natural beauty and rich cultural heritage.
This year marks the second time Banyuwangi has been selected as a port of call for this major international maritime expedition. The event is part of a series of Indonesian stopovers organized by PT Pelindo. The expedition began in New Zealand with a fleet of 32 yachts that crossed the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans, sailed through Australia, and are now navigating a route through Indonesia's premier marine destinations. Before arriving in Banyuwangi, the global sailors had already visited Tual (Maluku), Labuan Bajo, Lombok, and Bali. Their journey will continue to several other tourist ports across the archipelago.
The reopening of BIYC follows a change in management and the finalization of a necessary cooperation agreement with PT Pelindo Property Indonesia, signaling a stable and promising future for the club.

Location
Java Island epitomizes the pristine beauty of untouched nature, with equatorial forests harboring many hidden waterfalls, over 100 volcanoes with wooded slopes, and a winding coastline dotted with numerous bays and beaches. The eastern part of Java Island, where the yacht club is located, is a natural reserve area that is rarely visited by tourists.
Banyuwangi is a small town in the eastern part of the island, serving as a transit point between Java and Bali. The ferry connecting the two islands departs from here. Banyuwangi is also the closest point to the famous Gunung Ijen volcano. Several national parks are situated near Banyuwangi Yacht Club, along with the world-renowned surfing spot, Grajagan Beach.
The coastline of Java Island is winding and forms a large number of coves and bays, convenient for mooring boats of any draft. The comfortable climate, without seasonal temperature fluctuations, makes this location especially attractive to Russian visitors, with temperatures ranging from +23°C to +26°C throughout the year.

Investments & business
Melding dreams to realty to success
In recent years, interest in sailing and water tourism has been steadily growing in Russia. Yachting schools for both adults and children are being developed. However, climate conditions and the limited capabilities of the Russian coastline encourage the search for partners in southern countries with more favorable climates.
To attract tourists to Indonesia and Banyuwangi, where the season lasts all year round, we are developing partnership programs with Russian yacht clubs and children's yachting schools. These programs will expand our range of services and further develop the yacht club. We anticipate that the upcoming launch of direct flights between Moscow and Denpasar will significantly boost our business.

The Banyuwangi Yacht Club is one of the few successful examples of Russian business investment in the development of sports and tourism in Indonesia. Despite the challenges posed by the coronavirus epidemic and lockdowns, our club has not lost any ground and continues to grow.
The province of East Java and the islands of the Bali Sea are highly attractive for investment and tourism, as they are not yet overpopulated with tourists and maintain their pristine beauty. We are working to create a network of yacht clubs throughout Indonesia under a unified management system, connected by routes and sharing a common development strategy.
The yacht club is dedicated to sports and tourism. We invite organizations and departments associated with tourism and sports, as well as trade and investment companies, to join us at the Banyuwangi Yacht Club. We are ready to provide the best conditions for events of any level and complexity.
