Located at the heart of the world’s Coral Triangle, almost every corner of this archipelago is worth discovering, with promises of rich wildlife and glorious views. It doesn’t matter where you plunge for a dive or snorkel in Raja Ampat.
Raja Ampat is a stunning archipelago comprising over 1,500 small islands. These host thousands of species some of which are endemic to the region. With their sublime scenery of steep, jungle-covered islands, fine white-sand beaches, hidden lagoons, spooky caves, weird mushroom-shaped islets and pellucid turquoise waters, Raja Ampat is without question one of the most beautiful island chains in the world.
The Coral Triangle is recognized as the worldwide epicenter of marine biodiversity. Not only for corals and fish but many other marine organisms as well and therefore a global priority for conservation. The region covers only a very small portion of the planet’s oceanic area. Yet, it has the majority of all known coral species in the world. It is habitat for roughly half of all Indo-Pacific reef fishes and almost half of the world’s reef fishes.
