How To Get To Raja Ampat
The Right Itinerary: Depending on what you want to see, check the destination’s season and the best time to visit to ensure you get the most out of your liveaboard diving trip. There are two seasons in Indonesia: dry and wet. Because the equator runs horizontally through the country, when the rainy season is in the north, it means the dry season is in the south. Not all itineraries can be completed all year.
The Right Duration: How many days you can realistically give up work or other commitments, taking into account that you can’t get on a plane 24 hours after your last dive, not too long for you to enjoy the diving experience as much as possible, and see all the dive spots you want without rushing because you don’t want to do it on vacation. Not for too long because diving is exhausting; there is no need for you to repeat the previous dive, especially if you are a beginner.
The Right Price: From modern liveaboards to traditional (phinisi), luxury, and cozy/adventurous options, consider the activities available on board. More importantly, don’t miss out on our La Galigo Liveaboard deals: find our latest Liveaboard deals here!
