Activities
Day 1–2: Arrival in Sorong

Day 5–6: Wayag Lagoon
Sail into Wayag, the iconic karst landscape. Morning dive, then hike to the viewpoint for the postcard shot. Afternoon kayaking through lagoons. Evening beach barbecue under the stars.
Day 7–8: Deep Dives & Drift
Advanced dive sites—drift dives through channels with eagle rays, reef sharks, and turtles. Surface intervals spent exploring uninhabited islands and snorkeling hidden reefs.
Day 9–10: Biodiversity Hotspots
Dive the heart of the Coral Triangle. Over 1,500 fish species, vibrant coral gardens, and the highest marine biodiversity on Earth. This is what Raja Ampat is known for.

I've been diving for years but Raja Ampat was something else. The underwater world, the sailing between islands, the people on board — it all just came together perfectly. By day three the boat felt like home and the group felt like old friends

I almost didn't go. A sailing trip with strangers on the other side of the world felt like a big leap. But from the moment we left the harbor it just clicked. The diving was incredible, the pace was perfect, and I came home with people I know I'll travel with again.
