Had the best time!!
Absolutely loved this trip on Aurora. Every minute I felt well taken care of and even spoilt :-) Such a professional, dedicated, fun, committed crew. Delicious food - I might have gained some weight.. Boat has starlink, so I unexpectedly stayed connected to the rest of the world throughout the whole trip. The dives sites are stunning, but we also had some land excursions that blew our minds away! This trip exceeded my expectations by a lot, thanks to the amazing boat and crew of Aurora. Thank you so much!

Excellent Choice in Raja Ampat
The organization is excellent as well as the crew. The food and details such as a dry towel after each dive also stand out. to improve the price and maintenance of the boat (furniture) but little else. a 9/10

Wonder dive experience! The best.
Had a wonderful trip with the Aurora crew. The diving was excellent, the highlight being hammerhead sharks but every dive was good and most amazing. The staff went over and above to make the trip super special. New equipment, 4 divers per DM, though we had a DM for the two of us. The diving was from a tender so super easy getting into and out of the water. Food was varied and excellent, and cold soft drinks always available. Room were reasonable size and cleaned every morning while we were diving. There’s plenty of space to chill out between dives. Definitely highly recommended, will go diving on the Aurora again if I can! 😊😊😊

Summer trip in Central Raja Ampat
We had a great time in the comfortable cabin. Crew was always attentive and happy to adjust to guest preferences. Food was very good, dive guides excellent. The briefings could have matched the dives a bit better or been more informative about fauna. Conditions were as to be expected during low season

Great boat, fantastic helpful crew . A really good week
A 10 minute dive with a huge oceanic manta, on another dive 4 black mantas playing with our dive group for ages. Shoals and shoals of huge variety of fish and beautiful coral everywhere. lots of macro stuff too. All with the wrap around of a good boat, a great crew and beautiful scenery. Worth the LONG trip to get there (but don't bother to stay in Sorong unless to sleep)
