An absolute heaven of underwater biodiversity
The marine life in Raja Ampat ranges from the largest manta rays to the smallest pygmy seahorses. A complete menu of macro and pelagic action for the keen photographer.
Raja Ampat is stunningly beautiful area both above and below the water level. Raja Ampat’s startling underwater diversity is impressive and ranges from pounded slopes that drop away beneath the cliffs to deep bays, blue water mangrove channels, plankton rich upwelling areas to the Dampier Strait with unique fish assemblages that when taken together, add to produce the most impressive species list ever compiled on one of the world’s richest coral reef systems located right at the heart of the Coral Triangle. The beauty of Raja Ampat is indeed defined by the natural landscapes surrounding the islands above and below water with a selection of dive sites just minutes away from your resort.
