Pearl of Papua IS A PRECIOUS PEARL!
Great jovial atmosphere at our hotel among the other divers who were also being picked up really set us off on a great foot. Yayu (the owner/operator) is very organized and prompt, all with a congenial spirit. The small size of our group (11 guests) really fostered a personal experience. Lifetime friendships were formed. The coral was mind blowing. Yayu is extensively aware of the pelagic life as we were informed of what specifically to look for at each dive site. FABULOUS time with the Manta's at the cleaning station! Side excursions were also a very nice treat (hiking to top lookout at Piaynemo), a stroll through a tiny village on a small island topped off with FRESH coconut water!

- Yayu is the PERFECT Host!!! Gracious, considerate, accomodating, knowledgeable, humorous, not enough room to express the kindness of ALL of her staff.. There are swift currents, but the DM's and boat dinghy crew were acutely aware of every diver. I felt very safe. They take their jobs quite seriously. Lounge deck is FABULOUS! BBQ beach dinner was a blast. Ramah is incredibly kind, attentive and eager to help find anything you need..

A very friendly, well-run boat. It may not have the high-end polish of some newer boats, but it is clean, cool, and spacious. Tip: BYOB as the bar prices for beer, wine and gin,are high.

- Attentive and guest focused cruise director and crew. All the staff were more than keen to help. Striving to beat bad weather and find the big stuff.

Beautiful week of diving in raja ampat
The trip was wonderful. Despite spending two days of flying to get there they made pick up very easy and got us situated right away. They also set up all our gear every dive which made it super easy to get ready and stress free. The food and cabin crew were excellent and the diving was awesome. Highly recommend

Greatest moment ever!
Dive guides were so good. They showed me lots of fish, mantas, small creatures....Felt safe and secure even when there were very strong currents thanks to the help of dive masters there. The crew were super kind and friendly, making me smile all the time.
