Great Raja experience!
Yayu and her team provided a consistent dive experience across the 8 days touring around Raja Ampat. They did their best to get us good time slots at all of the major sites to make the challenging currents manageable and keep us well fueled with plenty of tasty food.

A week we will never forget!
The most amazing week spent in Northern and Central Raja Ampat. The boat owner, Yayu, was the perfect host and she made sure that we were all looked after so well by her excellent crew. The food was amazing - all prepared fresh and lots of choice. The boat and all the dive equipment was in great condition. Our room had aircon, an en-suite and a beautiful view of the ocean (we stayed in the Sea View Cabin) and we were surprised to find that there was housekeeping every morning. The diving itinerary was carefully planned so that we were the only divers at almost all of the dive sites. The conditions were also taken into account to avoid us doing dives where the currents were too strong to properly enjoy it. Overall, I couldn’t recommend Pearl of Papua and Raja Ampat enough.

Great mid range option for Raja Ampat
Seeing wobbegongs, octopus, turtles and loads of different corals. International crowd of people and very reasonable accommodation. Beautiful unspoilt islands. The beach party was amazing. English was limited with some dive guides, this could be better for divers.
