Reefs holding more recorded species than anywhere else on earth, a maze of jungle-topped karst islets rising out of a turquoise lagoon, and liveaboard boats and stilted homestays as the only two ways to sleep there.
The best time to visit Raja Ampat is Oct–Apr, when typical daytime highs reach about 30°C (86°F).
