Day 1: Sorong – Pulau Dayang
Upon arrival at Sorong Airport, your private crew awaits for a seamless transfer to the yacht, moored just 20 minutes away. Once onboard, settle in with a refreshing welcome cocktail and light lunch as you set sail toward the heart of Raja Ampat. Your first anchorage is Pulau Dayang, known for its vibrant coral gardens and the chance to encounter graceful manta rays. Spend the afternoon enjoying curated beach activities or a guided snorkel. At dusk, sip sundowners on deck beneath flocks of Sulphur-crested Cockatoos and Blyth’s Hornbills silhouetted against the golden skies over North Batanta.
Day 2: Cape Kri – Yenbuba Village
Awaken to the serenity of Cape Kri, home to the world’s highest recorded marine biodiversity in a single dive. After an elegant breakfast on deck, immerse yourself in a day of water sports: world-class diving, snorkeling, paddleboarding, wakeboarding, and water skiing await. Later, cruise to nearby Yenbuba, a traditional Papuan village where smiles are warm and the pace is slow. Meet the locals, explore white-sand paths framed by coconut palms, or simply relax on the beach. End your day with a beachside bonfire and a bespoke cocktail soirée under the stars.
Day 3: Manta Sandy – Arborek
Sail toward the famed Manta Sandy, a shallow cleaning station where giant mantas glide effortlessly through crystalline waters. Whether diving or snorkeling, it’s a magical experience. Continue on to the picturesque island of Arborek, where villagers greet you with genuine hospitality and showcase their handcrafted wares. Spend the late afternoon unwinding in the spa, followed by a candlelit dinner onboard — a celebration of ocean-to-table cuisine paired with fine wines.
Day 4: Aljui Bay
Greet the day with sunrise yoga, followed by a leisurely breakfast as the yacht anchors in the serene Aljui Bay. Known for its karst limestone cliffs and secret coves, this is a perfect day for kayaking, diving, or a guided tender tour. Enjoy an alfresco lunch as the sun warms the deck, then explore the area’s underwater world or visit a local pearl farm. The evening brings a barefoot beach BBQ on an uninhabited islet, complemented by bespoke cocktails and gentle sea breezes.
Day 5: Pulau Pef
Arrive at Pulau Pef, a hidden gem of jagged islets and hidden lagoons. After breakfast, embark on a day of exploration: paddle through emerald waters, hike to prehistoric cave paintings, or dive among coral-encrusted bommies teeming with reef life. Above and below the surface, this is Raja Ampat at its most untouched. End the day with a sunset spa treatment followed by dinner beneath the stars.
Day 6: Yengefo – Starry Cinema Night
Wake up in the aquamarine-fringed paradise of Yengefo. Renowned for its marine sanctuary, the island offers superb diving and snorkelling — where you may swim alongside turtles, stingrays, and an abundance of reef fish. After a relaxed afternoon on board or ashore, enjoy a curated tasting menu for dinner, followed by a private open-air cinema experience under the celestial skies.
Day 7: Return to Sorong
Enjoy a final breakfast on deck as you return to Sorong. The crew will assist with your transfer to the airport, ensuring a smooth and effortless conclusion to your journey through the richest coral reefs on earth.
