Snorkeling the Reefs of Misool, Raja Ampat! Misool is the second largest island in the Raja Ampat archipelago, and easily possesses some of the most stunning tropical scenery, both above and below the waterline, in the world. Hundreds of rugged, jungle-clad limestone islands string from the southeastern region of Misool, remnants of an ancient reef that has since been uplifted, to create a network of shallow bays, intimate island passes, and secluded lagoons. X As part of the Raja Ampat Bird’s Head Seascape, the turquoise-blue waters around Misool teem with life. Nearly 500 species of corals and over 1500 species of tropical marine fishes can be found in Misool and multiple habitats around each of the picturesque island groups promote the growth of shallow, vibrant, and diverse coral reef communities. X Our itinerary takes us to the best reefs and scenery that we have found in our nearly 20 years of combined experience snorkeling in the Raja Ampat. Whether we float idyllically above colorful coral gardens or along steep island drop-offs, each day our snorkeling adventures will be set amongst the magnificent backdrop of limestone islands that makes Misool such a special destination to snorkel. X ITINERARY Our snorkeling tour begins and ends in Jakarta, Indonesia. One round trip, internal flight Jakarta-Sorong-Jakarta. Upon our arrival in Sorong, we will board our boat and cruise towards Misool. Please note that although we visit many of the islands and island groups in the sample itinerary below, each of our departures is unique and that weather, tides, and opportunities to explore all play a role in the decisions about our daily schedule as well as the overall itinerary.

Overnight Gaia Love Day 3 – 5 Pelee / Wayil / Olobie groups Meals provided B,L,D The rugged limestone island groups to the southwest offer us the chance for big wall snorkeling as the reefs around many of these islands plunge hundreds of feet just a few fin kicks from shore. Colorful sea fans and soft corals adorn the walls while lush, healthy hard coral gardens pack the shallows. In the Olbie groups, snorkeling through huge schools of silversides that hide in the afternoon shade can be a surreal and thrilling experience! Overnight Gaia Love Day 6 Boo / Yilliet Meals provided B,L,D Yilliet and Boo give us the chance for some drift snorkeling where we get to see large schools of snapper, barracuda, and travally as well as schooling planktivores such as fusiliers and pyramid butterflyfishes. Turtles and sharks are common and the healthy reef near shore is a virtual aquarium of tropical marine fishes. Overnight Gaia Love Day 7 – 10 Wagmab / Lenkafal Meals provided B,L,D The northernmost string of limestone islands create network of quiet bay and narrow island passes that make perfect settings for our snorkeling activities. We’ll spend one day snorkeling a narrow channel where on one side we find a colorful wall of soft corals, tunicates, and variety of nudibranchs, and hard coral garden with mangroves on the other side. This area also boasts extensive shallow reefs, a marine lake, incredible fringing reefs systems around remote islets and the chance to explore a huge cave system by dinghy.

As an equatorial island archipelago, weather year round is hot and humid, with nearly daily rain showers occurring in the early morning or late afternoon. Daytime temperatures hover around 86Âș F 30Âș C and do not fall much at night. Water temperatures average around 82Âș F 28Âș C, though cooler temperatures may occur if persistent rains cause a thin layer of cool freshwater on the surface. Currents around Misool are generally light but may be strong at specific sites. While we plan our snorkel session around the slack tides, we also have several sites where having water movement is an advantage. These drift snorkels allow us to cover large tracks of reef without having to swim too hard. Our snorkel sessions are 100% boat supported and two dinghies will be there at all times to assist anyone for whatever reason. Most of the islands are steep and rugged with small pocket beaches. While we won’t have many opportunities to walk on the islands, there may be chances for a beach walk or two. We will have several scenic dinghy tours scheduled during our time in Misool. Please read more about our daily schedule here. WHAT TO BRING The following list is a suggestion of things to bring and applies to almost all of our trips specific items on a particular departure will be noted on the departure information. -A good fitting mask, snorkel, and set of fins. If your equipment is brand new, please try it out in the pool. Determining the fit and function of your equipment in the pool includes doing several laps with all of your equipment on. Doing several snorkel dives is also very beneficial. It is also important to clean your new equipment, especially your mask. Cleaning procedures for your mask include light scrubbing with toothpaste or dishwasher soap to remove the light layer of silicon that is used to preserve the mask during shipping and storage. All areas of the mask, both inside and out, need to be addressed. Doing this greatly reduces the chances of having your mask fog. Not doing this, even when using mask de-fogger, usually results in a fogged mask. -A wetsuit, rash guard, diveskin, or any type of clothing that can be used for thermal and/or protection form the sun. We suggest bringing a full 3mm wetsuit and some type of core insulation like a vest or shirt made of 1 – 2 mm neoprene Lavacore or Sharkskin shirts or vests. These items will not only provide thermal protection but protection from the sun as well. For those who feel that a 3mm suit may be too warm, please consider a full body skin or rash guard to ensure protection from the strong sun. With regards to thermal protection, remember the saying it is better to have and not need, than to need and not have. One that note
 -Head protection in the form of a wetsuit hood, a cap, or even a bandana. Anything that can keep the sun off of your head is extremely important. It is the most exposed part of our bodies when we are floating on the surface. -Biodegradable sunscreen lotion. Okay, this is a tricky suggestion. Even many biodegradable sunscreen lotions have been shown to harm and even kill tiny larvae baby marine life ranging from fish to all types of invertebrates especially coral. It is fine to wear on land, but we highly discourage the use of sunscreen lotions in the water. Having a full wetsuit or skin will do the job of protection from the sun much better than lotions and the suits also help with thermal protection. It is truly a win-win for everyone and the marine environment. -Casual, lightweight, tropical clothing -Sunglasses and a spare in case you lose your main pair -Comfortable footwear such as active sandals Teva, Keen, Merrell, etc. -Hats. We cannot stress the importance of a hat in the tropics! -All of our boats provide items like shampoo, soap, towels, etc. We bring this up because these items represent added weight and if they leak, less-than-fun times during the unpacking stage of the trip. Other items that may be considered -Lightweight rainwear to protect from the occasional afternoon shower -Binoculars DEPARTURES Mar 05 – Feb 17, 2024 ←Click to request a booking Accommodations Gaia Love Guides TBD Length 13 days Prices and Payment schedule $8600 USD per person, double occupancy $11,600 USD per person, single occupancy Reservation deposit $500 USD September 5, 2023 $4600 USD / $6600 USD single occ.

Menemani perjalanan anda menikmati keindahan Raja Ampat. Click I went to Raja Ampat islands last week where I enjoyed birdwatching to see red paradise birds and snorkeling to see tropical fish. I also had a short tour in the forest of the island and then continued my trip to Sopen village. Watching Red Paradise Birds The next day I woke up early in the morning and left the village for Wararaf forest in the north east area of Waigeo island by boat. We entered a river and then continued our trip on foot to the birding ground of Red Bird of Paradise Paradisaea rubra. I was an amazing trip, I was able to see several male and female paradise birds in a high tree. To watch them I used a pair of Visionking 10x42 binoculars. The lek of the paradise birds was approximately one hour walk from the place where our boat landed and the path was flat with some small river crossings. Red Bird of Paradise Paradisaea rubra River entrance to Wararaf forest While watching for the Red Bird of Paradise, I could also hear the sounds of Sulphur Crested Cockatoo and Papuan Blyth's hornbill. We watched the birds for around hours and then returned to the boat again. It was a great experience. On the way back to Sopen, I saw some sea birds including several Radjah Shelduck that I saw at the beach. While waiting for lunch, I saw some Brahminy Kite Haliastur indus and hawks flying over the village. Visiting Fish Lagoon and Hiking in The Jungle of Waigeo After lunch, I continued my trip to Fish Lagoon that was similar to Piaynemo or Wayag islands. Small karst islets covered with green tropical trees form a protected waters for fish and coral reef to thrive. The landscape was so beautiful. I also had a hiking trip through the jungle near the lagoon where I saw more birds such as Eclectus Parrot, Sulphur Crested Cockatoo, Western Black Capped Lory and Butcherbird. Local government was constructing a road that connects coastal villages. Most of the villagers in north-east region of Raja Ampat still use motorized boats to travel from one village to another. They do not have motorcycles or cars. So, when I was walking along the road I could only see trucks and bulldozer that belong to the road construction company. At the time there were no activities from the company. So, the forest was quiet. Only the sound of birds that I could hear. Fish Lagoon in Raja Ampat Snorkeling Experience Raja Ampat archipelago was one of the best marine environment with the highest marine bio-diversity in the world. I enjoyed snorkeling in several coral reef areas of the islands. White sandy beach with colorful coral reef and tropical fish were the typical scenery of Raja Ampat. I enjoyed snorkeling at Isanak beach, and DPL reef and Mamiaef island. They were so beautiful, fantastic! After spending one night walking at a small wooden house near a beach, I left Raja Ampat for Sorong city again. White Sandy Beach in Raja Ampat The eastern region of Raja Ampat has not been developed into a tourist destination. So, we would not see beach hotels or guesthouses in the villages where we visit. Visitors who are interested in visiting the region could stay in the villagers houses. East Raja Ampat Tour Package As a tour guide, I offer a tour package for visitors who are interested in swimming, snorkeling, sunbathing, taking island tours in Fish Lagoon as well as hiking and birdwatching in tropical jungle. In other words, we will explore the coral reef and rainforest of Raja Ampat to see its wildlife. Because there is no regular ferry service, we need to go there by motorized wooden boat.

VocĂȘ pode ir para Raja Ampat de aviĂŁo ou de ferry.*De AviĂŁoDesde Dezembro de 2016 hĂĄ voos diretos de Manado para Waisai, capital de Raja Ampat. A Ășnica companhia em operação Ă© a Lion Air, uma subsidiĂĄria da Wings Air. Outra opção Ă© voar para Sorong. HĂĄ vĂĄrios voos saindo de Jakarta, Bali e Makassar, e as companhias em operação sĂŁo Garuda Indonesia, Air Asia, Lion Air e Sriwijaya Air. VocĂȘ pode reservar sua passagem com Skyscanner que Ă© o site que eu uso confio. * De Ferry Em Sorong vocĂȘ pode pegar um ferry para Waisai, a capital city of Raja Ampat, com PELNI, empresa do governo da Indonesia. Mas os horĂĄrios dos ferries nĂŁo sĂŁo muito confiĂĄveis, e podem mudar sem notificação alguma. A melhor coisa Ă© pedir ao seu hotel que te atualize sobre os horĂĄrios dos ferries. Uma vez em Waisai, vocĂȘ terĂĄ que solicitar ao hotel pra te pegarem no porto ou no aeroporto. Melhor Ă©poca para visitar? VocĂȘ pode visitar Raja Ampat durante todo o ano, mas leve em conta que Ă© uma regiĂŁo com clima tropical, e nĂŁo tem dias do ano que vocĂȘ assegure que nĂŁo irĂĄ chover. Embora haja menos chances de chuva de Outubro a Abril, ocorrem fortes pancadas de chuvas em Dezembro e Janeiro. Se vocĂȘ estiver planejando mergulhar em Raja Ampat a melhor Ă©poca Ă© de meados de Outubro Ă  meados de Dezembro, quando o mar estĂĄ calmo, praticamente nĂŁo chove e nĂŁo venta. Evite o perĂ­odo que vai da metade de Junho ao meio de Setembro pois o mar estĂĄ agitado e chove bastante. Eu visitei Raja Ampat no final de Fevereiro, e cheguei lĂĄ debaixo de uma tempestade que nĂŁo dava pra ver nada. No dia seguinte ainda choveu, mas nos outros trĂȘs dias o tempo estava bom. Onde se hospedar em Raja Ampat? Me hospedei no Raja Ampat Dive Resort, e se vocĂȘ estiver procurando acomodação minhas recomendaçÔes sĂŁo EcĂŽnomico Raja Ampat Diva Homestay e Kakatua custo/benefĂ­cio Raja Ampat Dive Lodge, Alternative Stay e Augusta Eco Waiwo Dive Resort e Cove Eco Resort.

Damage to the vessel was minimal and it has already set sail after being questioned by official evaluation team found that the ship had been caught in low tide despite being equipped with GPS and radar instruments, according to team member Ricardo Tapilatu, head of the Research Center for Pacific Marine Resources at the University of Papua.“A tugboat from Sorong city was deployed to help refloat the cruise ship, which is something that shouldn’t have happened because it damaged the reef even worse,” Tapilatu said. “They should’ve waited for high tide” to refloat the 4,290-tonne Caledonian Sky, which was carrying 102 passengers and 79 crew on a 16-night journey from Papua New Guinea to the Philippines, damaged approximately 1,600 square meters of coral at a diving site known as Crossover incident resulted in the destruction of the ecosystem’s structural habitat and the reduction or loss of diversity of eight coral genera, including acropora, porites, montipora and stylophora.“This is what we found during our investigation into the site,” Tapilatu said. “We are currently finishing the report and will submit our recommendations to the district office next week.”The Caledonian Sky after it ran aground at Raja Ampat. Photograph Courtesy Stay Raja AmpatLocal homestay operator Stay Raja Ampat posted on Facebook “How can this happen? Was a 12-year-old at the wheel? Anchor damage from ships like these is bad enough, but actually grounding a ship on a reef takes it to a whole new level.”Due to Raja Ampat’s special biodiversity and its status as one of the world’s most popular dive sites, as well as the fact that the damage occurred in a national park, the evaluation team will recommend the company pay compensation of $800-$1,200 ÂŁ650-ÂŁ985 per square meter, for a total of $ according to Tapilatu. The standard rate is $200-$400 per square meter.“If the ship’s owner disagrees with the claim, then typically the government will take it to court,” Tapilatu said. If the company and government can reach an agreement, it will likely take a year or two for the district administration to receive the said the money would be used to revive the reef, a process he estimated could take a decade; to set more mooring buoys across the area to prevent ships from sailing into shallow zones; and to map out sailing corals just outside the impact zone left compared with those destroyed in the impact. Photograph Courtesy Stephanie Venables/Marine Megafauna Foundation/Mongabay“The government has had talks about compensation with the ship company, and I’m optimistic that this won’t go to court. Unfortunately, there will not be any moves for coral revival until we get the money.”Andi Rusandi, director for conservation and marine biodiversity at the Indonesian Ministry of Maritime Affairs and Fisheries, said local conservation and revival efforts were within the local government’s authority, but he said he would follow the its statement, Noble Caledonia said it was “firmly committed to protection of the environment, which is why it is imperative that the reasons for it are fully investigated, understood and any lessons learned incorporated in operating procedures.”

Raja Ampat, or four kings, is located off the northwest tip of Bird’s Head Peninsula in West Papa the western portion of New Guinea, politically associated with Indonesia. The four kings refer to the four main islands, Salawati, Waigeo, Batanta, and Misool, though legend has it that the names actually refer to four men who were hatched from four of seven eggs found by a woman the three other eggs hatched to reveal a ghost, a woman, and a stone. Each man lived on one of the four islands where they eventually became king. Legends and myths aside, one fact remains This region has an unusually high variety of marine life and is recognized as the world’s center of marine biodiversity. Dozens of surveys by the world’s leading scientists have found that the region possesses over 600 species of corals nearly 75% of all known species of reef-building corals and more than 1500 species of tropical marine fish about half of all known tropical marine fish. The astoundingly high level of marine life is due, in part, to plate tectonics, high amounts of water that flow through the region, and a variety of marine habitats that are found in the area. Pristine reef flats, secret bays, swift channels, deep drop-offs, shallow seamounts, mangroves, marine lakes, and protected coral gardens are but a sample of the types of marine habitats that can be found in the roughly 50,000 square kilometer area of Raja Ampat. Along with the four main islands, Raja Ampat has over 1500 breathtaking islands and islets that offer a scenic backdrop to the unspoiled underwater wilderness. The majority of the islands, especially the smaller islands and islets are made of limestone and the main islands are mostly volcanic in origin with deposits of limestone and sandstone. Dense jungle and rainforest dominate much of the hilly, craggy terrain, making perfect habitats for over 350 species of birds including parrots, hornbills, and birds of paradise. We wrote our snorkeling itinerary to take advantage of the huge diversity of marine life that abounds in Raja Ampat, from tiny neon gobies to large reef mantas. Whether we float blissfully above a shallow protected reef or get whisked along a fringing reef, each day we will snorkel in a variety of marine habitats that makes Raja Ampat such a special destination. Though our main focus will be on the incredibly rich underwater world, we will have opportunities to view rare or endemic birds, summit dramatic rock islands for incredible views, and relax on idyllic white-sand beaches – but not too long because we have a lot of snorkeling to do. We have guided over 50 snorkeling tours to this region and have come to know more than just a few islands and snorkel sites, largely unknown to other operators, that have some of the best reefs and scenery that Raja Ampat, the Heart of the Coral Triangle, has to offer!X ITINERARY Our snorkeling tour begins and ends in Jakarta, Indonesia. One round trip, internal flight Jakarta-Sorong-Jakarta. Upon our arrival in Sorong, we will board our boat and cruise towards our first destination within the Raja Ampat archipelago. Please note that although we visit many of the islands and island groups in the sample itinerary below, each of our departures is unique and that weather, tides, and opportunities to explore all play a role in the decisions about our daily schedule as well as the overall itinerary. Day 1 Jakarta / FM7 Hotel Jakarta Meals provided D Meet in Jakarta, Indonesia at our group hotel, the Bandara International, for the tour orientation and welcome dinner. As is often the case with our internal flight, we will depart for Sorong in the late evening, thus our overnight’ will be in transit to Sorong. Overnight FM7 Hotel, Jakarta. Day 2 Sorong / Gaia Love / Waisai Meals provided B,L,D Fly to Sorong and transfer to our live-aboard boat, the Gaia Love. Boat orientation and lunch before we depart for our snorkeling adventure into the islands. While we do not plan to have the chance to snorkel today, if time and weather permits, we will give it our best. Overnight Gaia Love. Day 3 Penemu / Fam Islands Meals provided B,L,D The Fam islands, Penemu being the largest, offer us the chance to drift snorkel along incredibly healthy, colorful walls where huge schools of fusiliers, unicornfishes, surgeonfishes, snappers, rabbitfishes, and sweetlips crowd along the edges while the current passes by. In the afternoon, we will snorkel in a quiet lagoon where we can lazily float above fields of delicate branching corals, some that can only be found in this specific habitat! Penemu Island is also home to some of the most stunning island scenery in Raja Ampat. We’ll have a chance to take a dinghy tour through the network rock islands and finish the tour with the chance to walk up 400 stairs for the ultimate in panoramic views! Overnight Gaia Love. Day 4 – 7 Alyui Bay / Wayag Meals provided B,L,D Ajyui Bay is one of the premier destinations in Raja Ampat. The bay possesses a variety of habitats including robust passages where brisk water movement supports a dazzling amount of bizarre and colorful life along the shallow edges of the islands, as well as protected reefs in private lagoons where a mixture of juvenile and adult reef fishes play amongst the tangle of staghorn coral thickets. We’ll also snorkel sea grass and sand flats to look for rare critters such as waspish and tasseled wobbegongs. To the north of Alyui Bay is Wayag, a remote island archipelago otherwise knowns as paradise. The convoluted network of picture-prefect, jungle-capped limestone islands create narrow passages, hidden lagoons, and shallow platform reefs. Our snorkels range from exposed seawards reefs to sheltered coral gardens and mangroves. Dinghy tours around Wayag rank among the best on the planet! We will meander our way through intimate passages made by towering limestone islands and stop off to put our feet in pure white sand before returning to our gorgeous moorage within the islands. Overnight Gaia Love. Day 8 Pef / Secret Bay Meals provided B,L,D The combination of limestone and mangrove islands in the Pef island group create magnificent shallow habitats that often possess a large diversity of sponges and sea fans. This is easily the best place to see the spot-tail blennny, marvel at enormous sponges both fan and barrel, and catch a glimpse of a ray or juvenile shark as they swim among the mangroves in the shallows. Secret Bay is a drift snorkel that begins at the mouth of channel and ends in an intimate bay. Along the way, we’ll get whisked by huge fields of purple and orange soft corals and sea fans! We will also tour the bay via dinghies to look for and hear birds and enjoy the scenery, the tides will determine our timing. Overnight Gaia Love. Day 9 Yangeffo / Gam Meals provided B,L,D The tiny mangrove islands of Yangeffo are separated from the main island of Gam by little more than a 75m-wide channel. Normally, mangrove islands would be fairly turbid and, as such, lack high coral abundance and diversity, but the channel focuses strong water flow that flushes the area of sediment. This results in clear-water mangroves where a huge number of corals use the prop roots of mangroves as substrate to grow upon. The clash of habitats’ makes for amazing snorkeling opportunities! We will snorkel both sides of the channel, especially to take advantage of the reef that extends from Gam. Overnight Gaia Love. Day 10 Mansuar / Dampier Strait Meals provided B,L,D Dampier Strait is where the big fish are found! The seaward reefs along Kri and Mansuar that are simply some of the best Raja Ampat has to offer. Huge schools of snapper, bumphead parrotfish, barracudas, unicornfishes, plus the thousands of reef fishes make this a must-do for fish-loving snorkelers. Look for sharks, turtles, and rays as they are common sightings as well. We’ll spend time along the jetty where current-exposed, weathered pilings act as substrate for forests of colorful sea fans. Overnight Gaia Love. Day 11 Batanta / Dayang Meals provided B,L,D Across Dampier Strait to the south, is the lush, volcanic island of Batanta. The shallow coral gardens around Dayang, located at the northwestern tip of Batanta, contain a mind-blowing diversity of hard and soft corals in every shape and color imaginable. Schools of fish number in the thousands and if we look closely out into the blue, a manta ray or dugong may be swimming by! Overnight Gaia Love. Day 12 Sorong / Jakarta / FM7 Hotel, Jakarta Meals provided B,L,D Disembark for our connection to Jakarta. Check in to our group hotel, the Bandara International. Farewell dinner at the hotel. Overnight FM7 Hotel, Jakarta.

There are several routes that usually chosen by tourist such as via Makassar, via Jakarta, and via Manado. All of them will need to transit in Sorong. There are many airlines that provide direct flights to Sorong. If you are from Jakarta, then you just need to fly to Sorong.

The team is amazing and welcoming. They do know perfectly their dive sites. They have 2 boats to go on trips or local dives organization was on point. We were able to dive every single day! I had my own dive gear which I highly recommend when diving overseas. Special thanks to Anni for being super responsive and helpful, thanks to Fatur for his great energy !!

Tripadvisor performs checks on express the wonderful experience my brother and I had here. I completed my OWD in 2017 and wanted my brother to discover joys of diving. Heike was an excellent instructor for my brothers OWD course and was incredibly practical regarding skills on top of PADI curriculum. Able to complete some amazing fun dives with the fantastic divemaster Mario, who was a joy to dive with and had great chat. Great attitude towards coral, able to point out and spot things. All the staff are incredibly friendly Heike, Paul, Captain, Romy, Pascal, quality gear and amazing experience. Loved the aspect of the dive centre being smaller than most, got a very personal touch to them. Couldn’t recommend this dive shop more and would also suggest looking into the homestays right next to them too. We stayed at Coconut house which was literally right next door to the dive shop.

Although this is a diving resort, they provided specially tailored trips for us as to snorkel in beautiful shallow reefs and even trips to see Manta staffs go out of their way to keep us comfortable and happy.

Tripadvisor performs checks on just and i mean hours ago finished a week of diving with Githa and Marsel at Arborek Dive Shop and what a phenomenal time we had. Manta madness. Githa is especially bubbly, passionate and enthusiastic and we loved the vibes. A few things to note they are not dive instructors, they are very good guides who are great at finding things but they wont teach you how to dive. My recommendation is you should have a MINIMUM of 50 dives before diving here. The currents are strong and unpredictable and often times Githa is filiming on her GoPro because 1 thats how she markets her business2 she is a part of a program to track and document local is a locally owned dive shop. They wont work on Sundays or religious holidays, so you would have to be a twit to ask them to or complain if they say no. There were a couple of absolute donkeys who suck at diving and refused to pay for their dives. Dont be those people. If you arent an experienced diver or youre expecting western standards, dont come. If you are a comfortable diver and love mantas and passionate divers then come and enjoy without hesitation.

There are acrually no more words needed to describe our stay at Pef. Amazing stands for all Pef teams like chefs, housekeeping, maintenance, back office, band and of course the dive team with which we spent our time the most. We were really sad to leave this place after our two weeks stay!The area offers great diving with alive reefs, lots of fish and convenient boats! Best is only one buddy team per guide. Never had such amazing conditions with all my previous diving. I can highly recommend this place for everyone. Pef offers so much to do beside the diving such as great snorkeling, kayaking, hiking, rain forrest walk,... there is always something you can do from young to old! Thank you Maya for creating such a great place!One day we will come back to Pef thats is clear!Written April 22, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on spent almost two weeks aboard the Pindito, making up to 4 dives each day. This boat runs so well and so smoothly. It's hard to imagine a better live-aboard diving crew really knows Raja Ampat. The cruise directors chose the sites carefully depending on conditions, plans, and the desires of the divers. The dive guides were skilled, knowledgeable, and careful. Everyone from the panga drivers, to the tank handlers, to guys looking after your equipment, to the stewards handing you a cup of water and snack or a hot chocolate after a night dive just went about their business with tremendous spirit and efficiency. I felt very well taken care food was delicious and the stewards not only knew who I was but what my food preference were. Because I'm a vegetarian, they made sure I had a good, tasty protein selection for every ship itself is nicely laid out and has a very cosy vibe.

The meals were fantastic, day after day. The location was perfect, with a great "house reef" just 100m offshore, fabulous birds in the trees overhead and birds of paradise not far away, and an interesting village nearby with another reef, cool cemetery, etc. Although not many guests were around to share boat trips, we managed to have two excellent days on/under the water, seeing dolphins, sharks, turtles, cuttlefish, nudibranchs, kajillion fish, and an incredible variety of healthy corals. Although internet is not the best, we were able to work remotely while at the homestay.

Moreover they have super-human abilities to spot really small and difficult t see animals such as pigmey seahorses, sea-ghost pipe-fishes, hairy shrimps, frog-fishes, etc. I have a PADI divemaster and hundreds of dives around the world, yet I did learn a good deal about how to find small wildlife from these guys! The diving was always performed in a safe and environmentally conscious way! Prices are honest if not cheap compared to all the other dive-centers I have seen in the area.

Tripadvisor performs checks on RPerth, Australia36 contributionsMy first trip to Raja Ampat in March 2023. Diving was superb with stunning coral in very healthy condition. Unfortunately the Southern area seems to have been plundered by fishing during COVID presumably when there weren't so many eyes on the area. Only small schools of barracuda, trevally etc. Only a few reef sharks seen on the trip. I was told by friends it was much better in terms of biomass pre-COVID. Hopefully it will bounce back in a few years... In terms of the iLike, it is a well-run boat thanks to cruise director Nicky and the crew. Very safe and professional. The boat has plenty of room for the guests to spread out, although shaded, cool areas were in shorter supply. The placement of the engine/generator exhaust pipes at the waterline mid-ship meant the main cabin needed its windows shut to avoid filling up with exhaust fumes, making it a hot place to be - especially with the open kitchen in this area also. The exhaust fumes had an annoying tendency to get sucked back into the dining area at the stern which meant for a sore throat after about an hour of sitting there. Luckily there were some shade sails on the foredeck which was also the smoking area. My surface time was spent trying not to get roasted in the sun whilst chasing clean air!The living quarters were comfortable with enough space for each guest. Obviously being a wooden ship there was all the expected creaking etc. so some earplugs for the first night or two is recommended until you get used it. The hull was reportedly deeper than other wooden ships with less rolling in bigger seas. Thankfully we had very calm seas so didn't get to test it out. The iLike is faster than other wooden ships in the area due to its dual engines so travel time was reduced and we covered a fairly large area during the trip. The dive equipment is well worn but reasonably well maintained. The dive tenders and boat boys do a good job with efficient transitions to and from the dive sites. The dive guides were good but nothing really outstanding - they just did their job. They were safe and reliable which is the main thing I guess. The cruise director Nicky did a fantastic job in organising the crew and guests. His enthusiasm was consistent throughout the trip, rain or shine. The food was impressive with the volume provided from small kitchen area. The food was basic but enthusiastically served and presented well. Alcohol was available to buy no BYO with prices in Euro, meaning a 200-300% mark-up for a can of Bintang. I find using a foreign currency to charge in this way off-putting. It is an unsubtle way to disguise overpriced beer – just price in IDR and I’m sure you’ll sell just as many. The drinks were accounted for on an honesty system with the tab settled at the end of the trip which was settling of finances at the end of the trip was really messy. Due to marine park and equipment hire fees not being included in the trip price, guests were expected carry a large amount of cash with them 500-600 Euros in some cases. I didn’t have the cash on me, there were no credit card reading/transfer facilities on the ship, and Paypal direct funds transfer was the only option offered. The internet speed on the mobile network in Sorong is super-slow so it’s recommended to set up Paypal for direct funds transfer before going on the trip load your account with enough Euro to allow instantaneous transfer as funds take a few days to clear when you load them. Unfortunately my final night was spent scrambling to try to get funds cleared instead of spending it with other guests doing the usual end-of-trip stuff. In the end I resorted to waking up and hour earlier and driving into Sorong to find an ATM and withdraw 1,000,000 IDR in multiple transactions. It was a ridiculous amount of cash to carry around and embarrassing to bring back and have counted in front of the Indonesian crew. The other financial issue is the matter of tipping. It is so gross to be asked for a tip with an envelope at the end of a trip. Just pay the crew what they are worth and avoid the cringe-worthy tipping exercise! It’s not part of Indonesian culture. It is a cash-grab from a captive audience and is gross when presented in this way. Gratuities for excellent service is fine but expected tipping is awful. If the crew are relying on tips which they aren’t then charge the guests more I’d happily pay extra to avoid end-of-trip transactions, pay the crew more, and stop doing this. It’s not the United States. It feels cheap. Stop it. All-in-all a good trip on a very well-run liveaboard. I’ll return to Raja Ampat in a few years and hopefully the biomass has been restored if the fishing is reduced. I worry that the best times are behind us in this region in terms of pristine reef habitats. The iLike is a nice ship but the clumsy/messy management of finances by the onshore/head office team by splitting up the bill etc. was disappointing. I’ll probably look elsewhere next time to avoid finishing the trip like that. It doesn’t leave a good impression. Hopefully those issues are rectified in future for other guests.

My friend and former boss at a dive business in South Korea has now established a dive boat operation after a couple of years of unbelievable effort. This is one of the must-see dive areas with unbeatable bio-diversity, tropical water, and still unspoilt. Most dive spots were great for snorkelers or they just used one of the two zodiacs to reach the perfect spot. We had 2 weeks on board on the beautiful traditional wooden craft. This really was a fantastic dive trip with plenty of new corals and creatures we had not seen before, impressive schools of fish, manta rays, sharks and some interesting overhangs and caves. It was the best ever to be on board on a well equipped and carefully restored dive boat. Plenty of space for torches, cameras etc. No worries on the dive deck including Nitrox. The charming crew did spoil us 24h! The dive guides briefings were always well explained, never in a rush and safety was always first. Our recommendation go for 2 weeks! it is so beautiful and the time goes too quickly. We also would say a big thank you to everyone. As we worked in dive business we know how much work is behind the scenes to make such a great unforgettable dive experiences. We hope to see you again soon! We just loved it. Also after the trip we stayed a few nights at a little island gateway were we could see bird of paradise.Written July 20, 2021This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

Let editor Chad Merchant and travel writer Petra O’Neill introduce you to one of the world’s greatest marine environments, the wondrous seascape where the Indian and Pacific Oceans meet. Breathtaking scenery, pristine waters, secluded island beaches, and the most stunningly diverse oceanic ecosystem on the planet This is Raja Ampat. Mention Raja Ampat to most people and you’ll be met with a blank stare. Mention it, however, to avid divers, and you’ll see a glaze of either nostalgia or unfettered longing wash over their eyes. Raja Ampat – meaning four kings’ in Indonesian, referring to the four largest islands in the area – is located off the far westernmost tip of the world’s second-largest island, Papua New Guinea, and is the Holy Grail for many divers. Though relatively easy to access, the area is nevertheless quite remote. From the Indonesian capital of Jakarta, nearly 2,800km distant, a four-hour flight is required to reach Raja Ampat’s primary point of entry, Sorong, at the tip of West Papua. It can also be reached via a flight from Makassar on the large island of Sulawesi. From Sorong, a boat is required to explore the many islands of Raja Ampat. It is this relative isolation, combined with the serendipitous commingling of oceanic currents from the Pacific and Indian Oceans, that gives rise to the region’s startling beauty and biodiversity. This is the marine wonderland where two oceans meet. Raja Ampat lies at the centre of the famed Coral Triangle, the global apex of underwater biodiversity. In Raja Ampat, that richness of life reaches its zenith, with some 75% of all the world’s known coral species found here. Vast schools of fish, an abundance of sharks, giant manta rays, and a great host of invertebrates are on display here, with over 1,500 species of marine fishes having been recorded, along with an incredible 537 species of coral. Into the world of Raja Ampat A ramshackle busy port town that is the main jumping-off point for Raja Ampat, Sorong has a dusty main street stretching along the shoreline lined with markets and general stores. The town offers almost no preview of the wonders of Raja Ampat, but there are nevertheless several points of interest, including a Buddhist Temple located on a hilltop with splendid views, a fish market with a bountiful array of fish and a bustling produce market with necklaces made from shells, colourful bilum bags, wooden carvings and tropical fruit and vegetables sold by women with broad smiles and teeth stained red from betel nut. Touring Raja Ampat is offered at many different levels, from budget to luxury. That said, even if you go on a shoestring trip, merely travelling to the regency is a near-status symbol among Indonesians. Airfare from Jakarta to Sorong is surprisingly costly, despite being available on two commercial airlines’ schedules and flights being generally full. A similar phenomenon exists for flights from Makassar. Once you’ve arrived in Sorong, however, the options for reaching the magical islands and seas of Raja Ampat are numerous. From live-aboard luxury charter yachts to local transport and basic home stays in a number of island villages, a vacation in Raja Ampat is everything you would expect it to be. There are no grand send-offs in Sorong, as the jetty is as ramshackle as the town itself. Regardless of the class of boat you will ultimately be on, your departure is decidedly low-brow. Passengers will typically climb down from the jetty of dubious construction, it must be said into a small dinghy or inflatable runabout that then heads to one of the many boats bobbing at anchor in the bay. Petra’s tender made its way to the Ombak Putih, a traditional Phinisi sailing boat whose name means white wave’, and she describes the scene Onboard were 17 other passengers – expats from Jakarta and intrepid travellers from the US, Netherlands, and Australia. We were about to embark on a journey of adventure, the course set westwards. The many islands of Raja Ampat are characterised by rugged coastlines and lush tropical jungles, with steep cliffs, narrow ravines and deep valleys. Much of the terrain is inaccessible, with waterfalls, secluded bays, and powdery white sand beaches that are still largely unexplored. The karst topography in the region is spectacular, a bizarre landscape of hundreds of tiny islands shaped like mushrooms that rise abruptly from the sea with bases eroded over time by the relentless motion of the sea. For the next 10 days, we would wake at sunrise before commencing our excursions on land and underwater. Best of all for me was the snorkelling, which had me flipping backwards into the sea several times a day. With my mask on, the world below was all-consuming, an onslaught of colour with countless species of fish that I noted diligently in my journal until the list became too long. My favourites were the yellow lionfish, angelfish, the golden trumpet fish, the purple, lime green and blue wrasse, giant multi-coloured clams, cuttlefish, parrotfish, and diagonally banded sweetlips. I snorkelled alongside inquisitive hawksbill turtles, and as my confidence increased, I went beyond the coral reef to deeper darker waters where barracuda and blacktip reef sharks patrol. In a saltwater lake, we were surrounded Isolation and splendour abound by hundreds of large golden jellyfish and while we saw whales and dozens of dolphins that came alongside the boat to play, the most amazing sight of all had to be the corals vibrant, multi-coloured, soft and hard, in a multitude of shapes resembling staghorn and crinkled champagne flutes. Meanwhile, Chad set out from Sorong to board Amandira, another traditional Phinisi sailing vessel whose name translates to peaceful and intrepid’ Owing to a rare and unexpected scheduling intersection of the 52-metre Amandira and 32-metre Amanikan, we were afforded the sublime opportunity to experience both of these incredible ships as we plied the waters of Raja Ampat and for six days luxuriated in the service and hospitality for which Aman is known. Amandira carries a crew of 14 to 15 for a maximum of 10 passengers, with Amanikan having a crew of 10 for six passengers, both ships including a dive instructor, private chef, masseur, waiter, and of course the marine crew. Some of the crew members perform double duty, and we found all the crew, without exception, to be friendly, capable, and accommodating. Our itinerary included plenty of excursions both above and below water. Red Bird of Paradise One of the more remarkable experiences early in our trip was a pre-dawn jaunt to the small island of Gam, as we set out to see the elusive Red Bird of Paradise Paradisaea rubra. With a wizened local guide leading the way, we hiked through the jungle to the top of a hill where we crouched behind a weathered blind and quietly waited. Naturalists and wildlife photographers often spend hours patiently waiting to observe Birds of Paradise, among the world’s most stunning and curious birds. Endemic to this region, the 42 species in this family – each more bizarre and spectacular than the last – routinely represent the pinnacle of an ornithologist’s observations. As the Red Bird of Paradise is found only on a handful of islands in Raja Ampat, and nowhere else in the world, we were fortunate indeed to see an extended mating ritual, with two males loudly competing for a female’s attention, dancing and displaying in the trees above us. We watched in rapt attention for an hour, then began our descent, the birds still locked in their cacophonous ritual. Petra’s own Bird of Paradise hunt, on the other hand, showed the more capricious side of nature, as she relates here A pre-dawn quest following in the footsteps of the naturalist Alfred Russel Wallace was a must-do adventure, but not even a pot full of Indonesian coffee allowed me to face the day at 3am with a smile, so I filled my pockets with coffee toffees to keep in reserve. Men from the village of Yembesir led us to canoes from where we silently glided over the water towards the island of Gam. From here, we clambered onto a rickety jetty before clinging onto ropes and hauling ourselves up on a steep upward climb in pitch darkness. Sitting on hard wooden planks, we waited for dawn to break with the village men peering enthusiastically into the treetops mimicking the mating call of the Red Bird of Paradise. And then they came one at first, followed by several more. We could see the curious bobbing, flapping, and weaving dance, so took aim with our cameras, waiting for the birds to descend. But nature is unpredictable. They flew away, so I sucked on the toffees to keep the adventure sweet and began the slippery, muddy climb down, accompanied by the squawks of black cockatoos and the chuffing of hornbills. Later, at the island of Batanta, we hiked from Arefi Village where local guides escorted us through the lush rainforest to a waterfall. The guides motioned for us to swim in the refreshing pool, but there was a second, much larger waterfall – and we could hear it. We continued on the uphill climb, following a rock-strewn freshwater stream that we ultimately had to cross in order to reach the waterfall, which was just as powerful and spectacular as its sound had forecast. Village children at Arborek We also met with local villagers and experienced an ancient traditional culture, viewing rock paintings of hand prints, stencilled fish, and human figures dating back 5,000 years. At Arborek, an island village that provides homestay accommodation to divers, we were given a traditional dance performance by young children who then ran and skipped behind us as we circumnavigated the idyllic tiny island. For both Chad and Petra, the striking scenery in the Wayag archipelago in the north of Raja Ampat, was one of the trip’s most beguiling wonders. Chad shares his experience In Wayag, another pre-dawn morning saw us climbing a series of steep limestone faces – a trek not for the faint of heart, it must be said – to reach the summit of Mount Pindito, which afforded us with breathtaking, postcard-perfect panoramas of the stunning turquoise lagoons and forested karst islands of North Wayag, as the sun breached the horizon in the distance. This was one of the more strenuous activities we undertook, and in truth, it presented quite a challenge for most of our group, but the crew managed to keep us safe and we were rewarded with some of the finest views of the entire voyage. Later that day, we found ourselves swimming with sharks, as a quartet of sleek blacktip reef sharks cruised effortlessly around us, oftentimes nearly at arm’s length. Though these are not considered a dangerous species, being in the water with such graceful predators was thrilling nevertheless. Petra agreed wholeheartedly Wayag was certainly the highlight of our trip. Few areas in Indonesia can lay claim to such natural splendour as the Wayag archipelago. The beauty of these karst spires is equalled only by the brilliant colours and vibrancy of the reefs and marine life. On a small boat, we explored the maze of mushroom-shaped islands, coves and lagoons, narrow channels and inlets, caves, and sandy beaches. And between towering jagged limestone cliffs that rise dramatically, we climbed almost vertically to reach the highest point, from where we looked across at the wide expanse below. The time spent in the company of the boats’ crews and new friends was also a marvellous part of the experience, as Chad found While still in Wayag, in a fitting end to such a remarkable day, we were provided with one of the most memorable moments of the cruise a starlit barbecue dinner on a secluded island beach. The combined crews of the two ships spent the afternoon setting up a dinner that was frankly jaw-dropping in its nuanced execution. And when the moment came, and the guests of Amandira and Amanikan were taken to the small island, we stepped onto the transformed beach, spellbound with delight. Sunset from onboard Amanikan A wonderful dinner, sparkling company, and a flawless culinary performance from the crew – they even got in touch with their musical side, breaking out the bongos and guitars after dinner and treating us all to a very nice mini-concert. Afterward, we released lanterns into the cloudless, star-splashed night sky over the Raja Ampat islands and retreated – utterly satisfied and content – back to our luxurious accommodations on board. It was truly a magical time, affording memories that have only sweetened over the weeks since. Getting there Fly to Makassar UPG with AirAsia, Silk Air, or Garuda Indonesia, from where you’ll catch a very early morning flight to Sorong SOQ with Garuda or Sriwijaya Air. From Jakarta CGK, flights on Nam Air and Garuda are offered. Where to stay If you need an overnight stay in Makassar, the no-frills Ibis Budget hotel is located within the terminal building. Bring your earplugs. In Sorong, the Swiss Belhotel is the best in town. While you’ll find spartan resort accommodation and homestays on islands such as Misool, for exploring nothing compares with travelling by boat. Sea Trek Bali offers many itineraries to explore eastern Indonesia. To learn more about Amandira and Amanikan, visit Sunset at Raja Ampat Weather The best time to visit is from October to April when the weather is milder. The seas in Raja Ampat are generally fairly calm because of the many islands and surrounding large landmasses. Further information Doug Meikle from Stay Raja Ampat [email protected] provided invaluable advice. Check on entry requirements. The Surat Jalan travel permit is not required for Raja Ampat or Sorong. A marine park entry permit costing about US$75 is required, though tour operators generally arrange this.
