Located off the northwest tip of Bird’s Head Peninsula in Papua, Raja Ampat meaning "The Four Kings" is an archipelago comprising over 1,500 small islands, cays, and shoals surrounding the four main islands of Misool, Salawati, Batanta, and Waigeo. Widely regarded as the global epicenter of marine biodiversity, this pristine sanctuary holds the world's richest coral reef ecosystems.
