You’ve never seen colors underwater like this!! | Diving Raja Ampat

This video covers the highlights of our scuba diving trip to Raja Ampat in West Papua, Indonesia! We went on an 11 day/10 night adventure on the liveaboard Akomo Isseki from January 24 to February 3, 2023. We completed 25 dives across the southern (Misool) and central areas (Dampier Strait, West Waigeo, and Fam Islands/Penemu) of Raja Ampat. We witnessed unbelievable hard and soft coral gardens, huge schools of fish, reef and oceanic manta rays, wobbegong sharks, countless macro critters, and so much more. This video covers the following dive sites:
Misool: Yillet Kecil, Boo Window, Puri Pinnacle/Antichovy, Magic Mountain/Shadow Reef, Whale Rock, Neptune’s Sea Fan, Four Kings, Barracuda Rock, Wedding Cake, Tank Rock, Nudi Rock, No Contest, Goa Farondi
Dampier Strait: Yenbuba Jetty, Karang Bata, Cape Kri, Saporkren, Blue Magic, Mioskon
Fam Islands: Melissa’s Garden, Keruo Channel
