ACTIVITIES

Besides the diving, we offer some activities along the trip according to weather conditions and the final trip itinerary.

In Triton bay, we propose a ride with the dinghies into the lagoons at dawn. The bay offers a labyrinth of shallow lagoons between quartz islets covered with rainforest, where inhabits thousands of birds. Turn of the boat engine and listening to the bird songs in the early morning is a truly moving experience. In the channel between Namarote island and the mainland is a cliff which was probably, a long time ago, a cave that is now open and reveal ancient art rocks paint- ing. We stop there and look at them from the boat.

In Momong, on the coast of Papua, we take the time for a short afternoon trek in the rain forest where, if we are (very) lucky, we may sight some tree-kanga- roos. In Misool, we will visit the ranger’s station and snorkel in front of their beach in a natural shark nursery where small black tips are swimming around in one meter of crystal clear water. A short hike to the viewpoint of the “love lagoon” (a lagoon in the shape of a hearth!) is also scheduled.

Guests are welcome to ask a boatman to bring you a shore at any time, as long as the schedule allows it. Our four complementary kayaks and paddles are also available to go on shore or in the lagoons whenever the boat is anchored. All these activities are subject to weather conditions as well as the planned daily schedule and itinerary.

WEATHER

The weather is variable, even during the "dry" season, in this part of Indonesia, rain showers often happen. The sea is generally calm, with a few temporary storms. Temperatures are around 30 °C.

VISIBILITY

In Triton Bay, the visibiity is an average 10 meters and can be lower in case of heavy rainfalls.
Raja Ampat's waters are dense with life and visibility can be limited. It is typically in the range of 10-20m, depending on the local condition that can vary from one dive to another. In Sabuda and Momong the water is clear.

TEMPERATURE

The ocean temperature all year long is between 28° and 30°C (82°-84°C). .

CURRENTS

On this itinerary the currents are generally moderate on most of the dive sites, and there’s always the possibility to do the dive in a current protected are. Wallacea Dive Cruises has a long experience diving these dive sites and always pays attention to dive in the right places at the right time to avoid difficult or dangerous currents. Before each dive, our guides conduct current checks so that our briefings will always inform you about the up-to -the-minute diving conditions 

ITINERARY & NAVIGATION:

The map shows the general cruise itinerary. It can slightly vary depending on weather conditions, currents, visibility, and tides. There are 4 overnight crossings on the trip, otherwise, we navigate between dives or in the early morning.

TRITON BAY:

The development of soft corals there has little equivalent in the world. On most of the dives we generally find the soft corals in the shallows (0-5m) on rock and boomies, then come the black and tubastrea corals with lot of sweetlips and snappers. Below 12-15m the bottom is mostly sandy or rubble with interesting critters (nudibranchs, frogfish...). Some spots can have a lot of baitfish, eventually attracting devil rays and other predators. The “bagans” are platforms for baitfish fishing at night, eventually attracting the whale sharks. We dive there in the morning, in small groups of 4 guests turning on 30 minutes shifts.

MOMON & SABUDA:

Momon is a very special place for it’s magnificent landscape. The mountainous coast is covered with primary forest and a river from the highlands ends up into the sea as a large glorious waterfall (we go to swim and play there). A small islet have thousands of bats flying out at sunset. We dive on a seamount outside the coast: huge school of jacks, napoleon wrasse, eventually manta and even whale shark. The bat islet is a good macro dive.

One night navigation brings us to Sabuda, at mid-way between Misool and the coast of Papua. It is a very scenic group of islands with beautiful lagoons and white sand beaches. The diving is interesting with big schools of fish (surgeon fish, trevallies, barracudas), eventually mantas rays. A second night of navigation is necessary to reach Misool.

MISOOL:

The 5 last days of the trip are in the South of Raja Ampat, around Misool and its satellites islets. Excellent for wide angle pictures, mantas, and massive schools of fish... The underwater topography is dominantly rocky, with ridges and rock formations. The very colorful reefs display an abundance of soft corals and huge gorgonians. Macro subjects are abundant as well, with the four kinds of pygmy seahorses, tiny crabs, nudibranchs, and other rare photogenic life all over. The last dive of the trip is at 8 AM on the penultimate day, and we reach Sorong before 4 AM on the last day.

Minimum of Advanced Open Water Certification with 30 dives at sea required.
