Discover the world’s most hidden paradise…

There are few unspoiled places left in the world, unexplored, far from the tourist circuits. Places where the natives look at you as if you were the first tourist they have ever seen in their lives. Magical, secret and spectacular places. Remote places unaltered by man. There are few places like Raja Ampat left.

This is partly due to it being one of the most inaccessible destinations in Southeast Asia. You may not know anyone who has been there and you may find little information on the internet.

Raja Ampat is considered one of the top five diving spots in the world. The archipelago’s location at the western edge of the Pacific Ocean favours the presence of strong currents and tides with a great nutritional wealth that attracts all kinds of marine species to its waters: 537 species of coral, 1,459 species of fish and 699 species of molluscs. Some of them, like the wobbegong shark, can only be seen here.

The image of a labyrinth of limestone islands crowned with vegetation and surrounded by turquoise lagoons has captivated Westerners since the first European sailors set foot on these lands in the 15th century.

Life on board

S.M.Y. ONDINA

Sailing on a “phinisi”, a typical Buginese schooner built using traditional techniques from tropical wood, through the seas of this route is a unique, romantic and adventurous experience. Having the chance to explore this diving destination, with virtually unexplored areas on board the SMY Ondina, is something exceptional.

 

It was built in South Sulawesi by the seafaring Bugis tribes and custom-built under the direct supervision of Operations Director Ricard Buxó: “by a diver for divers”.

 

It’s spacious interiors comfortably accommodate 16 passengers in 8 double cabins, each with air conditioning and private bathroom, of which the two forward cabins have two single bunk beds each, while the remaining six cabins are equipped with a double bed and a single bunk above.
