It would be highly recommend to arrive in Indonesia at least 1 day prior the cruise. There is several hotel options in Sorong. If you fly in to Manado an stay there for a few days (Lembeh Strait or Bunaken) you could take a short flight the day of embarkation to Sorong.

MY Emperor Raja Laut

Asia’s geography, climate, logistics and infrastructure present its own unique challenges and, with this in mind, the Raja Laut was designed with the specific requirements for yacht charter in South East Asia.

Raja Laut means ‘King of the Sea’ and stepping on board this ‘schooner style’ inspired yacht, built from tropical hardwood, you will experience a truly regal sense of sailing the Indonesian seas; freedom, style and comfort.

Raja Ampat, which in Indonesian means the Four Kings, is a Marine Park world renowned for being the epicentre of marine biodiversity. The park covers a large area with approximately 170 nautical miles separating the northern and southern extremities. It would be possible to dive for weeks and weeks without seeing the same sites twice.

Raja Ampat can be divided into three sections covering the North, Central and Southern Sections. Spectacular scenery both above and below the water make this heritage area unique and a bucket list item for both divers and lovers of nature.
