Raja Ampat
Raja Ampat is a stunning archipelago of more than 1,500 small islands spaning over4.6 million hectares of land and sea, of which over 2 million is Marine Protected Area. Located off the northwest tip of the West Papua province in the heart of the Coral Triangle, it is often referred to as the ‘Last Paradise on Earth’, and for good reason.
Raja Ampat is known for its stunning natural beauty and rich marine biodiversity. As one of the world’s most stunning natural wonders it is a popular destination for diving and snorkeling enthusiasts, with clear waters and vibrant coral reefs. Raja Ampat is one of the most marine biodiverse locations on earth. The archipelago is home to more than 1,600 species of fish, 75% of the world’s known coral species, 6 of the 7 known species of vulnerable to critically endangered sea turtles, and 17 known species of marine mammals. The reefs teem with an abundance of life and colour that cannot be found anywhere else on the planet.
The name Raja Ampat translates to “”Four Kings,”” which refers to the four main islands in the archipelago – Waigeo, Salawati, Batanta, and Misool. This rich archipelago provides food and livelihood for the approximately 50,000 local community members living in Raja Ampat’s 117 small villages
