South Raja Ampat

Needs completely rewording to include both diving and above the water options: Farondi offers two dive sites, one is a cave diving experience which offers depths from 15 – 30m, very clear visibility and some wonderful marine life. Alternatively there is Verena’s Garden, a wall dive.
Above the surface Farondi is just as beautiful, head ashore to the beach or just enjoy the scenery from the deck of your yacht.

Shadow Reefs (Karang Bayangan) is renowned for its excellent scuba diving and is arguably the best dive location of South Raja Ampat sites.
Here you can find the giant mantas that regularly come here as a cleaning station as well as large schools of fish.
The Friendly Canyon Dive site, 10 minutes from Panun Island, offers the chance to see a number of impressive creatures, including turtles, puffer fish, bat fish, giant grouper and sometimes you can even encounter the remarkable Black Tip Sharks.

The Fiabecet area has a selection of dives where colorful soft corals and beautiful sea fans literally smoother the reef.
The soft coral here are truly outstanding. There is a deep underwater ridge connecting the island of Boo in the east to the island of Kalig in the west. Parts of this ridge rise up to form shallower waters and the dive sites of Boo West Corner, Batu Kecil, Nude Rock, Whale rock and Kalig Ridge.
Expect healthy fish life, plenty of pygmy seahorses, nudes, colorful anemones, reef sharks, and perhaps the odd wobbegong shark too.

Daram is the most easterly point of the Misool islands. The reef at Andiamo is stunning and large enough for at least two great dives. There is a submerged pinnacle where sea fans are surrounded by schools of fusilier and bat fish.
A short swim across the sandy bottom brings you to the main reef which is lush with soft corals.
In between the two islets is a gap thick with sea fans and is excellent for wide-angle photography.
On the surface you will need your camera too, head ashore for a walk along beautiful Daram Beach.

Wagmap Island offers a dive about 15m to 20m depth with nice visibility. It is a dive site for

encountering big fish such as giant grouper, barracudas, giant trevally and giant carpet sharks.

After your dive, proceed to Tomolol Bay and take the tender to tour the sacred Tomolol Cave - this limestone cavern has a whole river-sized waterway flowing through it and is one of South Raja Ampat’s greatest attractions.
