Wonderful trip on a boat with a lot of charm and comfort and sumptuous dives. Unforgettable 🥰
Wonderful holiday interlude on a dream shooner. Well appointed and comfortable with family (adults). Unforgettable dives on preserved places where an organization and quotas restrict access for the benefit of the underwater fauna and flora but also of the divers🥰. The crew is very well organized. Everything went smoothly, in a good mood, in complete safety and comfort on wonderful places. Congratulations and thank you all. I recommend and will repeat the experience if possible.

Magic above and below
A diving holiday unforgettable for me with dives, sometimes a bit challenging, in places as remote as they are beautiful. Splendid pearls set in an emerald sea. Wonderful corals in excellent health, for now, refuge for an indescribable amount of fish.

Amazing diving, amazingcrew, higly recommended!
Our liveaboard to Misool and Central Raja Ampat was just wonderful. The abundance of fish, the healthy corals, and some of the 'big' attractions made the diving absolutely stand out. Add to that the great and fun group we had on board and the absolutely amazing, happy-energy crew, and this has just become a trip to remember. Furthermore, we loved the safety standards on board and we felt that the crew was in control of everything, including safety, throughout the whole trip (enabling us to have fun and not worry). Thank you Raja Laut and the amazing crew for an unforgettable trip!

Fantastic trip with a great crew
We joined this liveaboard in May and had an unforgettable trip. The crew was absolutely wonderful — kind, attentive, and always making sure everyone was comfortable and well taken care of. The food was excellent, with fresh, delicious meals that somehow got better every day. The boat was clean, well-organized, and thoughtfully run, making life on board easy and relaxing. Our dive guide was a bit quiet at the beginning and didn’t point out much underwater — it seemed like he expected us to explore and find things on our own. But after we shared some feedback, he became much more engaging and started showing us more marine life, which really elevated the experience. The only small downside is that all cabins are below deck, so you do hear the engine when the boat is moving. But that’s part of the liveaboard experience and easily outweighed by everything else that made the trip so special. Overall, a fantastic adventure — great diving, great people, and memories we’ll never forget!

Fantastic liveaboard in Raja Ampat
Raja Ampat is an unparalleled diving paradise. The service on board and the attention to detail were second to none. The diving, planning and logistics exceeded our expectations. And the food was always good and varied. Even though you can tell the boat (Raja Laut) is almost 20 years old and we had a little bad luck with our cabin (#1) (because it was right next to the engine room; thus loud and diesel smell - the other cabins did not have this problem), we felt completely comfortable and can recommend the tour almost without reservation.
