This is Raja Ampat (4k) - dive into the dream of biodiversity
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 5 окт 2019
- Breathtaking dives in Raja Ampat, West Papua, Kri Island, Indonesian coral reefs. As part of Coral Triangle Raja Ampat in West Papua has the highest biodiversity and the most colorful reefs on the planet, around 75% of the world’s coral species live here.
The size, maturity and healthiness of corals in this region is insane! A large part of the marine life in Raja Ampat is protected by 7 Marine Protected Areas (MPA's).
Raja Ampat is an archipelago of over 1500 small islands, including the four main islands of: Misool, Salawati, Batanta and Waigeo.
We started our trip in Amsterdam (The Netherlands), 2 flight transfers, 2 boat transfers and +30 hours later we arrived at Kri Island at Kri Eco Resort + Papua Diving for 10 days. Together with my daughter, Isabelle, we made 22 dives at the most beautiful dive sites there are.
All the dive sites are 5-25 minutes from Kri Island: Kri Eco Jetty, Chicken Bay, Mikes Point (!!), Blue Magic, Sardines, Sapokren Jetty, Melissa’s Garden (!!), Chicken Reef, Sorido Wall, Friwenbonda, Citrus Reef, Cape Kri and a lot more!
We stayed on Kri Island, at Kri Eco Resort. Kri Eco Resort is located in the center of the Raja Ampat Marine park at Kri Island. Papua Diving provides guided dives for Kri Eco Resort and (sister resort) Sorido Bay Resort. The local Papuan dive guides of Papua Diving are the best experienced dive guides in Raja Ampat.
Raja Ampat has more than 1000 species of fish, 540 species of coral and 700 species of mollusk. Predatory fish such as Barracudas, Blacktip Reef Sharks and Whitetip Reef Sharks are fully present. Large Oceanic Manta rays are attracted to the rich plankton waters. Schools of fish are everywhere and sometimes a bait ball can be seen. Beside the beauty marinelife the Kri’s forests are rich in birdlife and reptiles.
A special part of the marine park are the Mangroves at Hidden Bay (6:06), they offer critical nursing environments for juveniles of fish species. World's largest amount of mangrove coverage can be found in Indonesia. The Mangroves where one of the highlight’s of this trip!
During our stay we made excursions to Fam Islands, Hidden Bay and The Passage, they are the very definition of paradise.
- (7:00) Fam Islands are a group of islands in the Raja Ampat Archipelago. White limestone cliffs plunge into the sea. Ultramarine blue lagoons are nestled next to monumental pinnacles and untouched beaches.
- (6:06) Hidden Bay has a mangrove system of clear mirror-still blue water, where soft corals grow on the roots of mangrove trees. Rising above the foliage hornbills and parrots swoop between the trees. Hidden Bay is a complex network of interconnected water channels and lakes.
- (7:23) The Passage lies between the island of Gam and Waigeo. It can be described as river flowing between the two islands. The nutrient rich waters that are drawn through by the tides feed a vast wealth of marine biodiversity. Above water the sheer limestone cliffs make this a place excessively beautiful.
Places like this are sensitive to climate change. It's frightening to see how many people close their eyes for climate change. Climate change and a decrease of biodiversity are caused by overpopulation. Overpopulation is the main cause of most urgent problems in the world.
This film is the result of around 20 hours of 4k video footage and a few months editing. Shot in May / June 2019.

- Sony FDR-AX700 4K with Gates housing, Gates GP34 Wide Angle Port and Sealife Sea Dragon 2500 lights.

sharks visiting coral reefs is such a good indicator of the overall health of that ecosystem 🦈

thank god raja ampat is the most expensives trip that u can found in indonesia..not everyone has the opportunity to enjoy these underwater paradise, even we're the locals..make it exclusive and remain protected from the hands of irresponsible humans!..thanks for this beautiful footage that u shared with us.
The key to conservation in Raja Ampat was getting the locals on board, especially the fishermen. It's expensive because of it's location. It's totally unethical to insinuate that if you're not rich, you're irresponsible.
@@tropicaltrev1617 i think what he mean is if overcrowded it will kill the nature
@@noefvon true
keep the beauty of nature and cleanliness, don't destroy nature, don't litter and take it, leave it in its natural habitat...
My earth, my world belongs to all of us, take care of our health, beauty, shade, coolness, water clarity, cleanliness ... don't create pollutants that pollute the nature of everything on earth... create waste / recycling waste that is useful and can reduce industrial waste pollution world...
I'm 4 years late but I just wanted to thank you for putting in the effort with your white balance. A rarity with underwater videos on RUclips. Thanks for all the color. 🙌🏻
this more beautifull then national Geographic footage
I almost cried from the sheer beauty of it all!

This is probably the best video I've seen of Raja Ampat. Great job!
Alam yg sangat indah semoga dilestarikan buat anak cucu kita
Wow.
after kold
was about to say the same. It shows that the person behind the camera is very experienced and been diving in many places so that person knows which ones to shoots. Thank you for making this video 🙂
It's wonderful and 😎
The most beautiful sequence of images that I have ever seen in my life.... just perfect audiovisual combo! The colours are mind boggling!
I never even thought of scuba diving ever in my life. I watched this video... And now me and my wife are doing our first open water dives this weekend! Thanks for introducing us to this hobby!
Wow, that's fantastic. Lots of fun!
woooh~
I'm 17, I tried diving, and I love it so much. I want to work as a diver or something
Look how beautiful Raja Ampat is. This is just Raja Ampat, there are many more underwater paradises in Indonesia such as Bunaken, Derawan, Wakatobi and others waiting to be visited. As Indonesian, I confimed that I am so proud to be Indonesian because at the time of creation, God smiled when he created our land 🥹☺️
I cried watching this in the end. It was so beautifully captured at one point i felt like i was there myself and I cried at the beauty of it. SubhanAllah. ❤️ You are lucky.
thank you and support us to guard and save our ocean ,,,love from indonesia
the most beautiful coral reef ive ever seen.. So Colourful, So Rich of species, So Healthy, what a perfect ecosystem, i think this is the best in the world.. i hope it will keep it that way..
Wonderful Indonesia 🇮🇩
Papua
Indonesia 🇮🇩
Probably the best video of Raja Ampat I have ever seen, and the background music is fantastic.😍
Goosebumps. No matter how many times i see this video. Raja ampat is the real paradise on earth
Does heaven look like that? This is not montage. It’s pure art!!!! 🤯😍😍
When I try to imagine paradise, I figure it out exactly like this.
I from vilege friwen Raja Ampat islands waigeo
Thats exactly what I've been thinking about, it's will even be more beautiful and I can't imagine how beautiful its gonna be...
Wow, this is the best coral reef diving video that I have ever seen. Nice job with the footage and the background music! It makes me want to quit my job and move my family to the South Pacific!
This is south west pacific
This is some of the most extraordinary footage I’ve ever seen
This is more like NatGeo or something. How the camera catch the colors of the objects is so incredible. Perfection!
If I had any doubt before, after seeing this video, I´m sure that it will be my first dive destination after all these crazy days are gone. Amazing video, the colors, the editing, the music, absolutely perfect. Thank you.
I went to Raja Ampat a few years ago and it was crazy how beautiful it was. great job capturing it! I enjoy your shooting style
real life Pandora! we need to protect this!! Thank you for this beautiful video
thank you for making this amazing and such a great documentary! as an indonesian who never been Raja Ampat before, it feels like i know the beautiful of Indonesia more! love ya and be healthy always, hope you have agreat day! xx
I dived 7 times last summer. One of the most incredible experience in my life. Such a magical world. 💙
Thank you very much for the effort of making this breathtaking video. I went to Raja Ampat 4 years ago and I am forever grateful for the amazing experience.
Am crying watching this, I hope everybody can see this and not taking our nature for granted
its one thing to capture the beauty of the ocean & its another to beautifully put it together in a video. You aced both! 10/10 thank you!
you are so blessed to be able to see this paradise in person. thank you for sharing your skills. reaching that place is one skill. shooting the video is another skill. editing and adding the music are another special skill. only person with warm heart could share them with the world. God Bless you.
My earth, my world belongs to all of us, take care of our health, beauty, shade, coolness, water clarity, cleanliness ... don't create pollutants that pollute the nature of everything on earth... create waste / recycling waste that is useful and can reduce industrial waste pollution world...
I went to Seraya Island in Komodo, Indonesia and it was amazing, but quite small compared to Raja Ampat, and I'm looking forward, I regret a lot not going before!
The landscape of raja ampat is absolutely insane, but u take a great capture. Especially the undetwater footage, the angle, the animal, the lighting, the schooling fish combine with light.
I've been there once and offcourse wants to go there again.
Well done
After watching this video, I feel like knowing everything I wanted to know about Raja Ampat. Such beautiful images. This definitely deserves more views, great job!
you havent seen the island views 😁 it's beautiful too
Some amazing shots you got there! Underwater life in Indonesia is magic and now I have a new place on the list to visit!
Indonesia, the only country in the world, with thousand of extremely beautiful dive spot in the world. Seriously, even if you took your whole life, exploring Indonesia underwater, uncover the beauty, from Sabang to Merauke, it will never enough and never will be. But diving is scary though, that pitch black darkness slop when I put my head below the ocean surface, give me anxiety. But seeing video of Indonesia diving scene, is always give me a whole new meaning about what is life, what is our purpose as human, as life being.
There reasons why Sabang island is claiming 1st spot in world diving magazine for 5 freaking years. An other top 9 is dominated by other Indonesian dive spot. If I were rich, diving and underwater photography will be my first course to enjoy my life, only to explore these Indonesian majestic scene.
Best video I’ve ever seen on RUclips, great job, congrats
Exquisite, thank you for posting! The only place I have dived that even comes close is Anilao, Philippines, but the sheer numbers of fish In Raja Amat are way beyond. It is like a dream. It is amazing how SCUBA diving makes one aware of climate change on such an immediate level-- I see changes for the worse in repeat places I have gone just over the past 10 years, in terms of fish numbers and coral health. If only we could find a carbon-neutral way to get to Raja Ampat!!! I hope there is still time to see it in the way you present it here.
ini sih harus trending. gila, pengambilan footage nya keren banget, merinding dibuatnya. musiknya juga ngena banget
Indeed, God is creative in his creation, God bless the Lord of the worlds 💚
Very true! This video makes me think of how awesome and amazing the world made new will be, if it is this beautiful in its fallen state!!
Saat orang Indonesia sibuk berbondong-bondong pergi ke luar negri justru orang luar sibuk pergi ke Indonesia karena kekayaan alam yang indah ini.
Mantab
betul . . .
MAHAL BANGET. Sengaja dibikin mahal sama pemerintah biar orang2 Indonesia gak sibuk berbondong2 pergi ke situ.
biarkan saja, mending mereka keluar negri. kalo mereka ke tempat seperti ini nanti malah rusak keindahannya
Lebih murah ke LN drpd ke Raja Ampat bro...
This is some of the most impressive ocean cinematography I have ever seen. Well done and thanks for sharing!
Subhan Allah, beautiful underwater paradise!!!
Maa syaa Allah beautiful..hope one day, I can visit there...🙏
😉

I went here once when I was 5, it was a majestic experience and will hopefully experience once more next year. This video was great and wow, this truly is paradise.
One of the best underwater high quality footage! Those colors in high resolution of such a diversity is just breathtaking. Compliments.
Indescribable video! I do a lot of diving here in south Florida, but nothing compares to Raja and the images captured in your video! Excellent production, lighting and music! 🤙
The biodiversity is magnificent, hopefully one day I will get to dive this beautiful site. Cheers for sharing.

Beautiful and timeless. Thanks for this. 💙
To all local and foreign tourists ... look at the beautiful natural treats that can soothe the soul ... as a citizen of Indonesia I ask for help to be able to protect and preserve the environment by not littering on the beach ... let's protect this nature as a shared heritage
Worth watching. I was impressed. Cinema-photography, editing, well done. Perfect guys, don’t change a thing 11 out of 10.
Speechless!
Incredible work, you have proved that, without too much talk, without much captions, it is still possible to create wonderful videos that will tell the story by the video itself.
Thank you, may God Almighty bless you with all goodness 🤲
this video is incredible, and I've now added Raja Ampat to my travel bucket list
Wonderful INDONESIA 🇮🇩 👍💕

Best RUclips underwater video I’ve seen.
this is insane! thank you for the beautiful footage you've shared, truly paradisee 😍
Beauty, healthy and rich..!!
Great job..!!
Great video! Recently we were in Raja Ampat (see our travelvlogs) and were amazed by its amazingly lush underwaterworld. We spent two weeks learning how to scuba dive and it was one of the best things we have ever done. This footage brings back fond memories. Keep up the good work!
Beautiful video! I started a bucket list savings account just to visit Raja Ampat
Defenetly best video ive seen from Raja Ampat... so many memories :-) thanks for this beautiful piece of art
Thank you for sharing. As a person from the Maldives who remembers such healthy and vibrant reefs from my childhood, this really moved me. Overpopulation will be our undoing.
thats why Indonesian government make travelling to Raja Ampat very very very expensive so not many tourists will go there to keep the ecosystem like that.
Wow ! Over - and Under water paradise ❤!❤wonderful footages, Thank you ❣☝
BRAVO! best Raja Ampat video I've seen! So much thriving coral and fish eyecandy!
I was there a few months ago, it was incredibly beautiful. it was a great work. thank you for your effort. great video.
Que lugar espetacular 😍 estou maravilhada 💚💙. Com certeza quero visitar algum dia, beleza magnífica obra de arte de um Artista que caprichou, Deus é tão maravilhoso, Ele nos deixou tantos lugares e coisas bonitas para nós apreciar, uma pena que muitas pessoas não reconheçam , que nós seres humanos venham ter consciência que o meio ambiente precisa ser cuidado , amado e preservado. Estou encantada ❤️
cantik banget negeri gueeeee.. bangga Indonesia ku❤semoga tanah air ku selalu dalam lindungan Allah, dijauhi oleh hal2 buruk. Aamiin
✨ Super Video - Super Raja Ampat ✨
Amazing video, makes you feel to have a touch of your trip , great work really appreciate showing us the biodiversity of Raja Ampat ,,, many thanks for Sharing the video
I was confused between some dive location but after your video

i was craying when wach this video and got goosebumps , soo emotional, good job bro
A-M-A-Z-I-N-G!!! Great job, great color correction, great stability, nice editing, breathtaking places
Bagus sekali ! Every picture is true!!! We went there in 2008 and enjoyed Raja Ampat on a local liveaboard.
Stunning! I feel like I should have paid to watch this.
Why Corona has to jail me into my house?
I need to dive
Breathtaking video, awesome
Just go swim man, the sea is free of Covid!
Without human the marine life flourishes again and they are wanting for your next visit!
You saw all this in only 22 dives, what a great dive place this must be :)
Excellence of the highest order - When it comes to both subject and cinematography It simply doesn't get any better than this. Cheers! Riz Story~
Absolutely mind blowing!! Gotta do it ... 😊👏🏼
I can't wait to visit this place one day!!! So freaking gorgeous
I am so grateful to have been there 3 times, all dive spot are incredible and you see school of fish everywhere. This place made me fall in love with scuba diving !
Amazig video... I almost cried out of happiness looking at the underwater wonderland!
I was there last year/early this year, this takes me back
I want to go, great footage!
I am Indonesian but I have never been to raja Ampat, nice Vidio
Thank you, for took this video. Its Amazing, Wonderful, insane, incredible, 🙏💜💜
Saya bangga dengan Indonesia. Indonesia punya pemandangan laut yang tidak kalah cantik dengan yang ada di luar negeri. Salam Indonesia lestari!🐟🦭🐬🐋🐳⚓⛵🐠
Yang jadi masalah sekarang adalah
Indonesia negara kedua penyumbang sampah plastik terbesar dan terbanyak kelautan diseluruh dunia setelah china .
bukannya tidak kalah, tapi tidak ada tandingannya
Great vid though...
You also have to visit Bunaken North Sulawesi Indonesia, which is also part of the coral triangle with various biodiversity👍
I would love to do!
@@JurrienWiss agree. That spot is very famous in Indonesia (and more affordable)
Sensationelle Aufnahmen, die demütig machen. Eine Verneigung vor der Natur.
Vielen Dank für dieses Erlebnis.
!!! My best friend, It's always great. Your video is excellent quality. We liked and enjoyed to the end. Thanks
