Welcome to Raja Ampat


Paradise Dancer Live-aboard Raja Ampat to North Sulawesi Indonesia

SPECIAL :: Indonesian Incentive - $1000 Off!

Based in Raja Ampat, Indonesia, November through March, the Paradise Dancer will explore the bio-diverse
waters of the Raja Ampat Islands.

Paradise Dancer is a traditionally-crafted, threemasted wooden motor sailor, stretching 188 feet long, 39 feet wide and accommodating 18 adventurous divers. All of the state rooms are larger than traditional liveAboard state rooms (at 180 sq. ft. each, more than 60% larger than an average liveAboard cabin) and each cabin has private ensuite facilities and air conditioning. There is also a 470 square foot "Master and Commander Suite " at the stern of the main deck that features a king size bed, separate sitting area with a sofa, and table with chairs that reminds guests of the "captains quarters" from the schooner design that inspired her.

Charters will be 11 nights, 9 & 1/2 days of diving, 3-4 dives per day. Between October and March the Paradise Dancer will cruise out of Sorong exploring the virtually untouched areas Raja Ampat islands. This is one of the world's richest areas in terms of marine biodiversity and truly a pristine paradise just waiting for you to discover.

According to the vessel's managing partner, Guido Brink, "Our goal is to build the finest liveAboard yacht in the region and then put it in the best diving locations during the best diving season for that area."
