Merapi is The specialist in diving trips to Papua. Besides divers paradise Raja Ampat we also propose Papua diving trips in Biak, Triton Bay near Kaimana and Cendrawasih Bay near Nabire.

Triton Bay is the most neglected diving wonderland in Papua. Besides rest, you’ll find so many species of fish and different corals here. On top of that you can dive or snorkel with the whale sharks.

Raja Ampat is a group of islands in West Papua (former Irian Jaya) composed of 610, mainly uninhabited islands. The four biggest islands are Waigeo in the north, Salawati (southwest of the second biggest city in West-Papua, Sorong), Batanta (north of Salawati) and Misool in the southwest. The name Raja Ampat is based on these four islands and literally translated means ‘the four kings’.
Raja Ampat is still a rather unknown area in Indonesia, but among divers it is a renowned diving destination. This because Raja Ampat hosts so many different species of fish and fantastic coral reefs, varying from hard to soft corals. The islands themselves are impressive as well with their silent lagoons, crystal white sand and water that varies in colour from bright green to bright blue.

Diving is possible all year long, but from mid-July till mid-September it is more likely to rain and the waves can be higher. The Raja Ampat archipelago is easy to reach via Sorong.

It’s a little more difficult to reach Cendrawasih Bay via Nabire, but here you can swim or dive with the whale sharks all year long (except during the week around full moon).
