Located off the northwest tip of Bird's Head Peninsula on the island of New Guinea, in Indonesia's West Papua province, Raja Ampat, or the Four Kings, is an archipelago comprising over 1,500 small islands, cays, and shoals surrounding the four main islands of Misool, Salawati, Batanta, and Waigeo, and the smaller island of Kofiau.

Unique species that can be found when diving is some kind of dwarf sea horse, wobbegongs, fish and manta rays. Also there are endemic fish Raja Ampat, namely Eviota king, which is a kind of fish gobbie. At Manta Point which is located in Dampier strait Arborek, you can dive in the company of some tail Manta Rays benign like when you dive in Derawan Islands, East Kalimantan. If you dive at Cape Kri or Chicken Reef, you can be surrounded by thousands of fish. Sometimes a collection of tuna, giant trevallies and snappers. But stressful if we are surrounded by a collection of barracuda, even though it is relatively harmless (which is dangerous if we see a solitary barracuda or alone). Reef sharks are also frequently seen, and if you are lucky you can also see turtles were quietly eating sponge or swim around you. In some places like in Salawati, Batanta and Waigeo also seen Dugong or mermaid.
Because the area of many islands and narrow straits, then most of the dive at a particular time has a strong current. It is also possible to do a drift dive, dive, following the strong current with very clear water as he broke through schools of fish.
Do not worry if it is a vacation to the islands of Raja Ampat. There is already provided a great venue and complete with a package to travel there. Really nice tourist spot.
Really beautiful place on this one. For me the most important thing is to maintain and preserve the cultural and tourist attractions as well as the environmental nature. So that everyone could feel how beauty this island. Do not let anyone spoil let alone to destroy the natural habitat. Coral reefs are home to many species of underwater creatures. so, we must continue to guard.
