There are some areas where soft corals and sea fans dominate, others with an amazing range of hard corals, seagrass beds, mangroves, shallow reefs, drop offs, caves, black sand and white sand.

Maps & Itinerary
Raja Ampat is huge! Covering a total area of around 50,000 sq km, and encompassing hundreds of islands, it offers an astounding diversity of habitats, which translates to wildly different diving experiences.
In many places brightly coloured soft corals can be found close to the surface which, with perfect visibility and bright sunlight, create stunningly beautiful dive sites and spectacular photo opportunities. You even get to dive in some habitats that are endemic to Raja Ampat, the most representative of which is the clear water mangroves with corals growing right next to them.
Not only are there a massive amount of fishes in Raja Ampat, but all the levels of the food chain are well represented, with many species that are endemic to the area. You may encounter anything from pygmy seahorses to top predators; Wobbegong sharks and epaulette sharks are just two of the more unusual creatures can be found in the waters that make up Raja Ampat.
On a typical day we offer up to 4 dives: 3 day dives and a fourth sunset or night dive. The diving day is scheduled as follows:
- Light Breakfast followed by a briefing and Dive 1
- Full Breakfast, relaxation period, briefing and Dive 2
- Lunch, relaxation period, briefing and Dive 3
- Snack relaxation period, briefing and Dive 4, where possible
- Dinner
The itinerary and dive locations outlined above are an example only and may be subject to change depending on weather and logistics, local regulations, guests’ experience, flight schedules*, and is at the Captain’s discretion. Adverse weather can affect the Raja Ampat itinerary which includes several overnight sailings.
*Please be advised that domestic flights in Indonesia are often subject to delays, schedule changes and cancellations which can result in missed connections and / or late embarkation. We strongly recommend that you make arrangements to arrive in Sorong the day before your itinerary’s embarkation date.
