Blue Manta 11D10N

After an exhilarating 11-day tour of the many underwater wonders of Raja Ampat and Misool on the Blue Manta Liveaboard, it’s time to say farewell to this incredible voyage. Our dedicated personnel made sure you were comfortable and safe at every step of the trip, from the time you arrived at Sorong Airport or your hotel until the time you left.

Every dive site, from the beautiful Manta Ridge in Dampier Strait to the colorful reefs of Daram Island, gave a unique and stunning picture of the underwater life. Every dive showed how beautiful Indonesia’s underwater world is, whether you were amazed by the rainbow of colors at Melissa’s Garden or the exciting Big Fish in the Kri area.

You will notice how much your journey on the Blue Manta Liveaboard has altered your soul when you think about the memories you made, from the exciting dives to the cultural experiences you had in the villages. Everything about this trip was meant to be better than you expected, from the friendships you made with other travelers to the knowledge of our crew.

As you get ready to leave Usahamina pier in Sorong, take a moment to enjoy the calmness of the water and the warmth of the sun one final time. Whether you’re going back home or not, the spirit of adventure and discovery will always draw you back to the magnificent depths of the sea.

On behalf of the complete Blue Manta Liveaboard team, we thank you for choosing to start this amazing trip with us. Until we meet again under the sea, may your adventures be full of wonder and discovery.
