Divers: 15

Pearl of Papua sets itself further apart from other Indonesia diving cruises by running shorter trips: from 6 to 10 nights' duration, in and out of Sorong. This makes it a great option for those with constraints on time or budget.
Up to 15 divers can be accommodated in 7 en-suite cabins on board what is a relatively small liveaboard which prides itself on customer service. With 3 dive guides it always means small diver groups and plenty of personal attention. Aiming to provide a luxury experience at a great value, Pearl of Papua features an air-conditioned saloon/dining area with entertainment facilities and a sun deck with chairs and mats for those who prefer to relax outdoors.
Trips on Pearl of Papua mean that the wonderful dive sites of Raja Ampat are now open to more people, since the shorter trips and affordable prices make it possible for many more divers to experience this wonderful region. If that includes you then, with Pearl of Papua, the world is your oyster.
