    Experienced Guides

     

    We've spent over 22 weeks creating images on 4+ dives

    per day in Raja Ampat over the past 6 years and know the

    reefs and conditions necessary for optimal image making.

     

    In 2004 we were able to get in 7 dives a day at several spots

    by mooring on the dive site all day and also doing night dives there.

     

    Kirk Cantrell and Mike Oelrich won 1st and 2nd place in

    the International 2004 photo contest sponsored by the liveaboard.

    Since 1999, Deb has written dive magazine articles; created

    several websites for the area; has contributed photos to dive

    magazines in Asia, the USA and UK; presented shows at DEMA,

    Seaspace and UPS club meetings; and wrote the Raja Ampat

    section of the Periplus Guide to Diving in Asia. Deb has

    organized trips to Asia and the Caribbean since 1994.

     

    This is not an exploratory trip. The ship?s captain has 6

    years liveaboard experience in Raja Ampat too.

     

     

    What You Will See

     

    The goal for these trips is to get the guests onto the best reefs

    for optimal image making and give them the freedom necessary

    to create their images.

     

    You will visit healthy reefs, unusual reef structures and

    memorable dive sites in the area with the most diverse

    marine life ever recorded.

     

    Huge schools of fish: barracuda, surgeonfish, fusiliers, batfish,

    sweetlips... macro creatures: blue-ring octopus, pygmy seahorses,

    double ended pipefish, shrimp gobies, nudibranchs, and loads

    of reef fish.

     

    Plus, beautiful unspoiled topside scenery.
