Raja Ampat diving is an unbelievable experience regardless of the itinerary. However, by far the most popular itinerary is North & Central because that is where the most popular dive sites can be found such as: Blue Magic, Chicken Reef, Melissa’s Garden or Eagle Rock and Black Rock.
Liveaboard diving in Raja Ampat will enable divers to do at least 3 dives per day with occasional night dives where possible. The dives start early morning and typically finish in the afternoon with approximately 2 hours surface intervals.
When not diving, relax on the deck, bask under the tropical sun, or stargaze in the clear night skies. Share stories with fellow divers, enjoy freshly prepared meals, and perhaps even pick up new diving skills from seasoned instructors onboard.
