The Itinerary

Following Indonesia’s two-year COVID closure we are excited and looking forward to next year’s trips. We have heard the reefs are even more spectacular, have had time to grow, rejuvenate and multiply. We have chosen magical Raja Ampat at the time of year when, historically, conditions above and below the surface have been best. The cruise will take us from Sorong through the Dampier Strait and then down to Misool. The diving in Raja Ampat is, quite simply, out of this world. The reefs are a painter’s pallet of color and variety; home to over 1500 species of fish and more marine life than anywhere else on the planet. It is literally the center of marine biodiversity. Big animals are common here, with manta ray cleaning stations, shark sightings, schooling barracuda, and jacks. Get ready for sensory overload, the reefs in Raja Ampat literally buzz with life! They are completely covered in colorful sea fans, sponges, with hard shallows and fields of soft corals. In addition to the amazing reefs and fish life, you’ll see numerous nudibranchs, crustaceans, pygmy seahorse, and cephalopods.
