Experience the breathtaking contrasts of West Papua's coastline on a 900 nautical mile voyage. This region is a land of towering mountains and sprawling rainforests, and a global hotspot for biodiversity. We'll sail into the legendary Raja Ampat archipelago, a jewel of the Coral Triangle where thousands of unique species thrive. Our journey also includes a visit to the serene Cendrawasih Bay for a once-in-a-lifetime encounter with magnificent whale sharks, before we finish in the secluded beauty of Triton Bay, where we can again encounter whale sharks.
