Raja Ampat, Indonesia

These images are from a 10-day snorkelling trip to Raja Ampat in Indonesia in January 2026, organised by Snorkel Venture, https://snorkelventure.com/. We travelled to Sorong in Southwest Papua, on the Island of Guinea and joined a liveaboard boat the Coralia, https://www.coralia-liveaboard.com/.  With a snorkel guide from Snorkel Venture and more from Coralia we were very well looked after. Another great holiday with fantastic snorkelling, incredible fish, coral and great company. We visited many islands near Missol, including a Leopard Shark breeding centre, https://www.misool.info/blog/2024/10/31/reshark-everything-you-need-to-know and and more islands in the Dampier Strait.
