Raja Ampat and the Spice Islands

Between heavenly islands and unique coral reefs, set sail to explore the legendary “Spice Islands” and Raja Ampat. From Darwin, set a course for the Moluccas and Banda Neira, the cradle of the nutmeg trade, between colonial vestiges and lush jungle. Then explore the Raja Ampat archipelago, a string of more than 1,500 islands and karstic cays rising from the crystal-clear waters of the Coral Triangle. In West Papua, discover the sublime Kiti-Kiti Waterfall before heading to the Kai Islands, a little slice of paradise boasting some of the most beautiful beaches in Indonesia. Over 12 days, take the time to explore this part of the world and its unique marine biodiversity with expert naturalist guides. A rich history - you will be sailing along the ancient Spice Route - and breathtaking scenery await you, while the seabed will reveal itself during water-based activities. The wildlife encounters are possible experiences and cannot be guaranteed.
