This area is made up of 600 gorgeous islands, most of which remain untouched by the modern world. Set sail out of Sorong and head to the beautiful island of Kri, where you’ll enjoy beaches and coral reefs like no other. Continue to the Boo Islands, a cluster of tiny isles carpeted with lush green jungles. Next, make your way to the island of Misool and hike to the traditional village of Lenmolas. Here, you’ll befriend locals and get a taste of this remote Indonesian life and culture. Finally, live in paradise as you relax on smooth white sand and dive in crystal blue water on the most beautiful beaches Indonesia has to offer.

This itinerary is an example. It’s designed to inspire you and provide you with thoughtfully curated ideas. You can choose to do this exact itinerary or completely personalize it. All trips are 100% bespoke.

Highlights

  • Pristine & Remote Reefs: Raja Ampat is a diver's dream destination offering pristine reefs teeming with abundant sea life due to its remoteness. Envelop yourself in the undersea world which you can have entirely to yourself.
  • Island Hopping: In between your underwater adventures, break surface and explore the lands which are equally remote and untamed. These endless green isles offer coves, lagoons, jungles and rare foliage and birds.
  • Private Schooner: Set sail on a luxury schooner that is entirely yours. Replete with plush interiors, stocked with comforts, and staffed by a skilled and experience crew, all you have to do is enjoy the sun & seas. The days are entirely yours to swim, dive, trek, and eat the freshest seafood directly from the sea.
