West Papua · The Coral Triangle’s 1,500-island archipelago
Experience the world’s most biodiverse marine ecosystem. Luxury liveaboards, private yacht charters, world-class diving and snorkeling, island tours and resort stays — curated end to end by our local team.
Few places on Earth combine sheer remoteness with this much wonder. Raja Ampat sits at the convergence of the Pacific and Indian Oceans, where nutrient-rich currents have built reefs so dense with life that scientists have repeatedly recorded more species per square metre here than anywhere else on the planet.
A single dive at Cape Kri famously logged 374 fish species. Manta cleaning stations gather oceanic giants with five-metre wingspans. Limestone karst islands rise from glassy lagoons in Wayag and Pianemo. And around them, Papuan communities live in genuine harmony with the sea.
From liveaboard expeditions and private phinisi charters to overwater bungalows and authentic homestays, Raja Ampat Islands curates every part of the journey — flights, ferries, permits, guides — so you can step off the plane in Sorong and let the archipelago unfold in front of you.

Read guideReal words from guests who experienced Raja Ampat with our team.
“The diving was beyond anything I imagined. Three mantas at Manta Sandy on the first dive, soft-coral walls at Misool that felt like another planet. The team handled everything from Sorong onwards.”
“We booked a private phinisi for our honeymoon and it felt like our own floating villa. Wayag at sunrise, hidden lagoons all to ourselves, dinners under the stars. Every detail thought through.”
“I am not a diver and worried I would feel left out — instead I snorkeled with sea turtles every single day. The Papuan staff and the food at our eco-resort were unforgettable.”
