A very experienced boat crew that know the Raja Ampat destinations better than anyone else, and the re-found beauty of this elegant wooden yacht, extensively re-fitted and furnished in 2006, with its en-suite private cabins, combine to provide a unique adventure. The crew are very attentive and friendly, the boat stable and quiet under motor; a combination that will soon have you unwinding and feel right at home.
Pindito's nitrox facility can mean extended periods beneath the spectacular equatorial seas of the Banda Sea, Alor, Irian Jaya and Flores diving - Maumere. For photographers or those who want to maximise their time marveling at these amazing dive sites that the Pindito visits, complimentary nitrox is indeed an excellent perk on these Raja Ampat dive trips.
