Located within the Indonesian archipelago off the northwest tip of the Bird’s Head Peninsula in West Papua (Irian Jaya). Comprising hundreds of jungle-covered islands, the area is known for its beaches and coral reefs rich with marine life. Raja Ampat, translated directly as “four kings,” was named for the 4 main islands in the area – Weigeo, Batanta, Salawati, and Misool.
Diving in Raja Ampat will take your breath away with the marine life thriving from the seafloor to the surface and the colorful reef teeming with activity.

The only problem with diving here is that you’ll be so spoiled by the near-perfect conditions that you may never want to leave or dive anywhere else again!

I saw a crocodile fish and a wobegone shark. The boat was very comfortable. I look forward to my next trip won the Gaia Love.
