Papua Explorers Eco Resort is in the islands of Raja Ampat, which is on the northwest tip of the Bird's Head Peninsula of West Papua.
15 Deluxe water bungalows constructed using local architectural techniques and natural materials. Each room has a bed with mosquito net, ceiling fan, desk and chair, a seating area consisting of a two-seater sofa and a coffee table. There are two sun loungers on each veranda as well as a hammock to enjoy the breathtaking Raja Ampat sunsets. There is a stairway straight to the ocean on the veranda. Towels, environmentally friendly natural shampoo & shower gel, and soap are provided.
Diving in Raja Ampat casts a spell on all who descend into its abundant waters - scientists, photographers, novice and lifetime divers alike. Lying in the heart of the Coral Triangle, the Raja Ampat holds the prestigious title as the most marine bio-diverse place on earth - quite a title; but also fact. At its most recent count in 2011 the region of Raja Ampat was recognized to contain 1427 reef fishes, over 600 coral species (75% of the world's coral species can be found here), not to mention the pelagic life that is abundant in the area.
Papua Explorers Eco Resort has scheduled transfers to the island from Sorong every Sunday and Wednesday.
