Day 3 & 4: Wayag Islands

For the next two days, we’ll explore the beautiful Wayag Islands, known for their small green islands, white sands, and turquoise waters. This area is perfect for water enthusiasts to enjoy. Kayak through hidden coves or tender to secluded beaches with crystal-clear waters.

Hike to the island peak for breathtaking views of rock formations and surrounding waters. The trek ends at a white sandy beach, where you can relax and enjoy a stunning sunset while the crew prepares a delicious meal on the deserted shore.

Day 5: Excursion in Gam Island

Before dawn, we set out to see the mystical Red Bird of Paradise. With our crew, you’ll visit Gam Island, where villagers will guide you through the jungle to a bird-watching platform.

After seeking the exotic bird, we’ll return to the boat for breakfast surrounded by Kabui Bay’s mushroom-shaped islands. The bay leads to a narrow channel with strong currents, offering views of sea fans, sponges, and corals. We’ll then explore the quiet waterways of Gam, tendering through mangrove forests. If lucky, we might swim with stingless jellyfish near the surface.

Day 6: Arborek & Batanta

The Dampier Strait, named after explorer William Dampier, features tidal surges that create strong currents carrying plankton. These currents attract hundreds of Mantas to Arborek Island. We’ll dive or snorkel the shallow sandy bottom to observe these graceful mantas.

After lunch, we’ll visit Arborek village, home to sustainable fishing and friendly locals. We’ll explore the village, meet the residents, and buy handmade crafts. We’ll then return to the boat for our last night in Raja Ampat, watching a beautiful sunset over the islands.

Day 7: Batanta to Sorong

This morning, the boat arrives back in Sorong. After a hearty breakfast, our dedicated crew will guide you to the local airport for your flight home.
