Video "Dreaming Of Raja Ampat" is about a scuba diver’s lifelong dream of exploring Raja Ampat, the “Last Paradise on Earth,” becomes reality. While daydreaming amidst the winter chill, she's magically transported to this underwater wonderland. There, she swims alongside majestic manta rays, quirky wobbegong sharks, and vibrant coral reefs teeming with life. This adventure captures the beauty and wonder of this marine paradise.

Most of footage in this video has been filmed in the Dampier Strait area, which is our favourite part of the Raja Ampat. A few clips were taken during our trips to the Misool area.
