Raja Ampat

Indonesia

Aman’s well-known luxury experiences translate beautifully under the twin-masted, Phinisi-inspired sailing yacht, Amandira. Custom-designed and handcrafted from local hardwoods, the vessel travels under sail and by motor, combining ancient romance of the spice trade with modern amenities fit for royalty.

With five total cabins (capacity of 10 guests), a dedicated crew of 13 will provide intuitive, personalized service and can accommodate weddings, honeymoons and more. Both steady and graceful, the 170-foot vessel always comes with a dive master, captain, cruise manager, housekeeper, waiter, spa therapist and experienced chef to serve up Indonesian specialties or dishes according to guest preference. One Master cabin, two Deluxe cabins and two bunk-bed cabins come air-conditioned and outfitted with handmade teak and ratan furnishings. Upper, middle and lower decks provide areas for lounging, sunning, dining and entertainment. But the star of the show awaits on deck and beyond.

Aman voyages in Indonesia allow exploration of the realm of the Komodo dragon, storied Spice Islands, and vast underwater sanctuaries. Climbing volcanoes, diving with manta rays and basking in rosy sunsets are all part of the Amandira experience.

Diving Raja Ampat

All adventures through Raja Ampat can be tailored to guest preference, and the staff at Amandira are happy to design custom experiences. While Amandira offers a range of rare adventures in Indonesia, our Elevated Lifestyle partner Huffman Travel highly recommends the Raja Ampat diving expedition – a five-night voyage through one of the world’s most exceptional marine areas where the Pacific and Indian Oceans collide.

The great islands of Waigeo, Misool, Salawati and Batanta have been aptly named Raja Ampat – literally translated to ‘the Four Kings.’ Pristine nutrient-rich waters nurture 1,300 species of fish and hundreds of corals, as well as scores of mantis shrimp and rare animals like sea eagles and the famed birds of paradise. Beyond the sea, guests explore karsk forests, hidden jungle caves, sea caverns and pearl farms. Above all, travelers come to Raja Ampat for the variety of dive sites including shallow, macro, fast drifts and underwater sea mounts.

With state-of-the-art onboard diving equipment and experts at hand, guests receive an unparalleled underwater experience. With nitrox on board, experienced divers can remain below for longer and stay safer, while new divers can become PADI certified under the guidance of a qualified instructor. Other waterborne adventure includes paddle boarding, kayaking and snorkeling. Wellness activities range from private personalized massage, beach yoga, meditation and health-focused menu enhancements.
