A beautiful and very comfortable boat
Everything from start to finish was excellent- from quality of rental equipment to the lovely post dive drinks (juices or teas depending on weather). The crew were super nice and so helpful. Food was plentiful and excellent - bowls of fresh fruit available all the time.

Amazing diving, amazingcrew, higly recommended!
Our liveaboard to Misool and Central Raja Ampat was just wonderful. The abundance of fish, the healthy corals, and some of the 'big' attractions made the diving absolutely stand out. Add to that the great and fun group we had on board and the absolutely amazing, happy-energy crew, and this has just become a trip to remember. Furthermore, we loved the safety standards on board and we felt that the crew was in control of everything, including safety, throughout the whole trip (enabling us to have fun and not worry). Thank you Raja Laut and the amazing crew for an unforgettable trip!

Fabulous week in Komodo
We had a fantastic week aboard Emperor Raja Laut diving in Komodo for our honeymoon. Flor and Sophie guided us safely through 20 dives at a variety of sites with knowledge of and respect for the local reefs and wildlife. We saw a huge diversity of wildlife, including manta, turtles, octopus, cuttlefish, and countless nudi, among others. Sprinkled in were land excursions to see a local village, a pink sand beach, and two hikes - one with an incredible view of Padar island. The boat staff was lovely and kept us comfortable throughout our stay. FYI there can be strong current at some sites in Komodo, so this is not an itinerary for freshly certified divers.

A beautiful boat in a beautiful location
We visited a variety of sites, enjoying both macro life and pelagics like mantas and sharks. When we were in south Komodo, we were virtually alone; only one other dive boat was in the area. The reefs were so healthy with brilliant colors and abundant life. Our divemasters, Sophie and Flo, were wonderful hosts and guides. I enjoyed our shore excursions, hiking a tall peak for a great view and also seeing the Komodo dragons in the park. My week, we only had 7 divers out of the 12 possible, so we got very individualized service (and I had my own cabin!).

- The reefs were in fantastic shape, our divemasters were fun and knowledgeable, and the boat was newly renovated.

Magic above and below
A diving holiday unforgettable for me with dives, sometimes a bit challenging, in places as remote as they are beautiful. Splendid pearls set in an emerald sea. Wonderful corals in excellent health, for now, refuge for an indescribable amount of fish.
