Beautiful Birds, Bays, and the Underwater World.
Raja Ampat Islands are situated on West coast of Indonesian’s province West Papua. Although the islands are among the best snorkeling spots of Indonesia, they are still wild, not flooded with a wave of tourists. Just a few villages are located on the largest islands.
Safari covers Kaimana, Triton Bay, Raja Ampat, Misool and Waigeo.
