Structured, multi-day private phinisi voyages departing Sorong. Each itinerary maximizes dive time at the epicenter of the Coral Triangle — 75% of all known hard coral species, 3–4 dives per day, all-inclusive.
A Raja Ampat liveaboard package is a structured, multi-day dive voyage aboard a private phinisi schooner. Departing from the port of Sorong, each voyage is designed to maximize dive time at the epicenter of the Coral Triangle. Voyages grant experienced divers access to remote, high-current environments and pelagic aggregations, moving beyond the scope of day-boat operations.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the best length for a Raja Ampat liveaboard trip?

For a first-time visitor, 7 or 10-night itineraries are ideal. A 7-night trip provides a comprehensive tour of a single region (Central or South), while a 10-night voyage allows for a multi-region expedition. Shorter 5-night trips suit repeat visitors with specific site objectives.

Is a private charter different from a standard liveaboard?

Yes. A private charter grants exclusive use of the entire vessel, crew, and resources — complete control over itinerary, daily schedule, and site selection.

What are the marine park fees?

The Raja Ampat Marine Park fee (PIN) is IDR 1,000,000 per person for foreign nationals, valid 12 months. We facilitate purchase prior to arrival.

Do I need special insurance?

Yes. Comprehensive dive insurance with emergency medical evacuation is mandatory. Standard travel insurance often excludes scuba diving — DAN or equivalent required.
