Dewi Nusantara
Your charter includes the vessel, full crew of 28, all meals and non-alcoholic beverages, dive equipment and guides, water sports equipment, tender boats, and standard itinerary activities. Alcoholic beverages, national park permits, and special requests are additional.
Dewi Nusantara accommodates up to 18 guests across 9 luxury cabins. Cabin configurations include the master suite with private balcony, deluxe double cabins, and twin-configuration cabins — ideal for families, couples, or dive groups.
Absolutely. While the professional dive center is a highlight, non-divers enjoy world-class snorkeling, kayaking, paddleboarding, island trekking, village visits, birdwatching, spa treatments, and simply relaxing on the enormous deck spaces. Many guests never dive and still rate it as a life-changing voyage.
Raja Ampat is a year-round destination, but peak season runs October through April with calmer seas, best visibility, and manta ray encounters. The shoulder months of May and September also offer excellent conditions with fewer vessels in the region.
For peak season (October–April), we recommend booking 6 to 12 months in advance, especially for holiday periods and large groups. Shoulder season dates may be available with shorter notice. Contact us to check current availability for your preferred dates.
