Raja Ampat Workshop 2018
I just returned from a trip to Raja Ampat on the Arenui that started in January . I have travelled with Bluewater and Mark Strickland before. I can tell you this is a beautiful combination ! I loved my trip so much I booked the same trip again on a different year before I got off the boat. This was the most wonderful location I personally have ever dived, so much life ! The Arenui is TOP NOTCH and I learned so much working with Mark that I would book this in a heart beat if I had not already booked my next trip to Raja Ampat . I highly recommend this trip even though I am not going. The water was warm, the colors were amazing and the islands are so beautiful it seems that they cannot be real ! We saw huge Mantas, woebegone sharks, nudibranchs , ghost pipefish,gorgeous colorful soft corals and huge "fields" of staghorn coral teeming with life. This boat is five star, it is every bit as lovely as the pictures indicate. Super comfy and the pangas are well appointed too.
