Our 12-day Dive & Adventure Travel starts in Kaimana, located in West Papua Province in Indonesia. In 2008 Kaimana Regency designated 6,000 square meters of land as a special Marine Protected Area – known as Triton Bay. Some of the highlights however include the bobbing pygmy seahorses as well as elegant whale sharks. Triton Bay and the Iris Strait nearby is often less visited due to its isolated location but it has made a name for itself among serious divers as the place to come in Indonesia if you are looking for abundant marine diversity, and a serene atmosphere away from the crowds. After 4 days we set our course north west direction Misool, the golden South of Raja Ampat. In this unique underwater world we spend the rest of our journey before sailing towards Sorong.
Raja Ampat, or the Four Kings, is an archipelago comprising over 1,500 small islands, cays, and shoals surrounding the four main islands of Misool, Salawati, Batanta, Waigeo and the smaller island of Kofiau. The Raja Ampat archipelago is the part of Coral Triangle which contains the richest marine biodiversity on earth. Raja Ampat is the place where coral species reach 75% of all known species and fish nearly 1,300 species. Raja Ampat is also a paradise for bird watchers. The Raja Ampat islands are a truly natural phenomenon with enormous biological diversity.
