Trip Report Raja Ampat 2024

[TostitoBandito]

Yeah I haven't been on the Blue Manta yet (booked for 2026) but one of the coolest things was certainly the look of the bathrooms. Ordinarily in many liveaboards you get a tiny bathroom with enough room for a toilet, sink, and often times a shower that barely fits a person (if you even get a separated shower area). Some just have the shower drain into the center of the room.

This boat looks like a freaking hotel. The size of the rooms and especially bathrooms is crazy by liveaboard standards.

if you’re a photographer or videographer, you’ll appreciate its camera room.

Huge bathroom like in a hotel, where the shower is in a section by itself, separated from the toilet and sink.

Agreed - huge bathrooms on both boats. However, I only used the in-room shower once (on the last morning) as the showers on the dive platform are awesome and always hot (not always very hot in the rooms if lots of folks are taking showers) - so showered after each dive (they have shampoo/ body wash on the dive platform).

I did the same. They have 6 shower heads on the dive platform.
