“The crew was EXCEPTIONALLY helpful and knowledgeable”
The Ratu Laut - meaning Queen of the Sea, offers year-round liveaboard diving in Indonesia. At 30m long she caters to just 12 guests in 2 large quad cabins and 2 smaller twin cabins. All cabins feature AC, fresh towels, and linen. 2 shared bathrooms are located on the upper deck. Also on the upper deck is a large open-air shaded dining area and lounge. The top deck is home to the sun deck with sunbeds and bean bags.
Diving focuses on Raja Ampat, and the cruise director will choose the best dive sites on the day based on the weather, currents, and tides. Divers can expect to do up to 4 dives per day, including a sunset or night dive. The captain, dive guides, and crew of the Ratu Laut have years of experience in the Indonesian waters. The Ratu Laut phinisi is operated by Barefoot Conservation NGO, and all profits from the trips go towards science, research, and conservation programmes, so you can rest assured that you are helping the marine environment when you dive with the Ratu Laut. Marine Biologists and Manta Ray Scientists will also be on the trip to collect data and do presentations on the research being conducted on manta rays.

Awesome diving experience in Raja Ampat
Everything was great. The dive sites were carefully selected and we never really had a bad dive. The crew took excellent care of us and made the trip as comfortable for us as possible. It was an awesome trip and the value for money is excellent from my point of view.

Great weather. Great conditions. Excellent diversity of dive sites. The huge, dense schools of fish were the highlight for me. I’ve never seen so many fish in one dive

Incredible trip :)
The liveaboard was incredibly beautiful. On the one hand this fascinating underwater world, so colorful, so much life, Raja Ampat especially Misool is a dream! Plus the small "shore excursions" (Heart Lagoon, Sunset, Jellyfish Lagoon...). On the other hand, this helpful, always friendly crew, with whom you have a lot of fun. If you want luxury, you should look for another ship. If you want to dive and have a good atmosphere on board, this is the place for you. The ship is simple but clean and has everything you need. At the beginning it is a little strange that the toilets are right next to the dining table, but you get used to that very quickly. Diving is professional. Dive guides are great!! (Thanks Oves for swapping masks underwater, because my new borrowed mask was very foggy (old one broke). Now I could see the manta rays and you could only see shadows...)Thank you all, I had a wonderful holiday and I want to come back very soon!
