This 12 days/11 nights cruise is a fantastic combo of Raja Ampat and Halmahera. The adventure begins with the famous Misool in the southern part of Raja Ampat National Park, crossing west toward the south of Halmahera. The abundance of sea life is just astonishing with both fixed fauna such as corals and gorgonians along the lush reef and a stunning quantity and diversity of fish swimming above. The dive sites’ underwater topographies are also varied and interesting filled with dramatic pinnacles, long ridges, walls, hidden caves, rock formations, azure lagoons and much more. The fauna ranges from the tiny pygmy seahorse to the oceanic manta rays. Raja Ampat’s signature are the huge schools of fish: clouds of fusiliers that attract predators like tunas and trevallies, barracudas, schools of inquisitive spadefish, schools of sweetlips, groups of bumphead parrotfish, Napoleon wrasses, and much more! In Halmahera many of the dive sites are sea mounts with a rocky substrate and plenty of large soft coral covered bommies in all different colors. The fish life is intense; you have to see it to believe it!
