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

Superb end-of-season cruise!
We were 3 a couple and a girlfriend and our cruise was fabulous. You are picked up from the hotel, you are taken from the dock to the boat in a dinghy. Everything is simple. Once there, the welcome is warm and everyone takes care of you. The dive deck is spacious and once the checks are done, you will find your tank directly on one of the tenders. The briefing room, which is also the dining room, is decorated with simplicity and comfort. You feel very good there. On the upper deck, a large wooden table (which can be used as a dining table if the weather permits) and two well-padded sitting areas allow you to enjoy the view. At the very top is the sundeck and its 6 deckchairs also perfect for relaxation.The dives are obviously very beautiful and the guides flushed out all the little wonders we want to find in Raja. Pipefish dragon, blue ringed octopus, seahorse pygma, wobbegong shark, cuttlefish and nudibranchs in numbers.The most positive point for us will remain the team: 100% Indonesian, with the owner Yayu who dives with you and tells you stories at dinner. We dived well, ate well, slept well, talked well and laughed a lot. If I had to do it again, I would immediately sign up for the same cruise "fo shur!!"Thank you again for these unforgettable moments!Ps: the room on the upper deck is definitely worth the extra euros invested. Waking up with a view of the islands and the sea is really worth it.
