Take the Aurora liveaboard 12D11N trip via the fabled waters of Raja Ampat and the remote beauty of Triton Bay, Kaimana, to witness the unspoiled splendor of Indonesia’s final frontier. This carefully planned tour is intended for divers looking for unspoiled reefs, incredible biodiversity, and a deep sense of exploration away from the more popular northern itineraries. The trip travels well into the Southern Raja Ampat archipelago, where colorful coral walls burst with life and famous locations are teeming with beautiful mantas, schooling fish, and reef sharks. Moving into the calm maze of Triton Bay, you’ll discover a world of stunning limestone karsts, elaborate coral gardens, and unusual marine interactions—all in the center of the most biodiverse seas in the Coral Triangle.
From gliding through serene coves ideal for macro photography and critter hunting to diving current-swept passageways teaming with pelagic life, this Aurora liveaboard safari offers the ideal mix of excitement and wonder. Intimate experiences with the region’s renowned fauna, such as the gentle whale sharks of Triton Bay and the mysterious walking epaulette sharks, are guaranteed by the vessel, which acts as your doorway to inaccessible locations seldom reached by shorter voyages. The Aurora liveaboard offers the comfort and capacity to thoroughly enjoy this far-off paradise with professional direction and an emphasis on immersive exploration. For divers who appreciate peace, biodiversity, and a spirit of adventure, this 12-day journey is more than simply a dive trip; it’s an excursion into the heart of Southern Raja Ampat, offering unmatched underwater scenery and a genuinely genuine experience.
