Very professional and experienced dive guides, equipment is cleaned daily by the crew, hung up to dry and also brought completely to the respective boats, unfortunately no toilets on the boats

Our dive guide Hengky is very experienced and competent and exudes a great sense of calm.
Unfortunately, we didn't know which sites we would be visiting before the dive boat set off, which I found strange, especially as a photographer. After all, you want to have a choice and dive according to your interests.
Some of the sites we visited were not very spectacular by Raja Ampat standards, although the local divesites also had some very beautiful sites.

But I was also lucky enough to have the guide Hengky and the boat to myself and to be able to choose my favorite dive sites myself. So I was able to dive the P47 in a strong current with Hengky as my photo model.
The surface interval in the small village of Arefi with its friendly inhabitants or on the island of Wai were highlights for me.
In my opinion, too little attention was paid to the protection of the coral reefs! Neither at the briefing nor anywhere in the bungalow was there an urgent warning to touch anything. Unfortunately, I saw other divers deliberately holding on to corals in order to take a video with their action cam or destroying entire coral branches with their fins. That shouldn't be the case.
The base manager himself is always on site and approachable, and other senior staff are also available for guests and sometimes available for an interesting chat.
Although the camera room is rather small, it offers everything a photographer could wish for. (Own workstation with sockets, light, Kleenex, AirCon, clean, ...)
I thought that was great.

All dives, whether local or day trips, take place by boat. All you have to do is make your diving requests and dive, the guides organize and take care of everything else, e.g. setting up equipment, catering, etc. The dive sites on the day trips are even more interesting!

Very professional dive center, with specialists for underwater photography. You learn here incredibly much and have at the end of the vacation a variety of breathtaking
pictures.
Also here you feel incredibly comfortable and you can focus exclusively on relaxation, diving and feeling good.

Especially the dive center management is very eager to fulfill the wishes of the guests, even if the planning is often not easy due to the weather.
Most of the boats are very small and simply equipped (no toilet or possibility to change), but diving is always done in small groups (maximum 4 divers per guide, but mostly less), which we found very pleasant. The dive sites themselves were really fantastic, the surface breaks are made on lonely beaches or also near small villages, which is a really nice change. The trips to the Fam Islands, Mansuar and to Kri were super nice. We also liked the possibility to do daily either a sunset or night dive. Overall well organized dive center with mostly motivated guides.
