Trip Report - Cendrawasih Bay & Raja Ampat - July 2012

[Equator Diving]

We just finished our 11 night trip to Cendrawasih Bay & Raja Ampat on the Damai II liveaboard. Simply amazing trip! Whale sharks of course were the highlight but Raja was also excellent!

There's a full trip report and LOTS of amazing photos on our website

One of our favourite photos

great photos, great trip report. i am constantly being eluded by whalesharks so it may just be that i have to take a trip to this place, and is a great excuse to go dive raja or other parts of PNG as well!!! Any photos of the white ribbon eel? would love to see if this is a colour mutation or if its the closely related ghost ribbon eel.

there is a few places in philippines where you can see whale-sharks...snorkeling in donsol,and around southern leyte,plus there is whaleshark feeding,(which i hate),in sourthern cebu,onslob.....
also,in western australia on ningaloo reef when the coral is sparwning,there are whalesharks for around 6 weeks,i think around march april...
hope this helps
