Ok so I know this is just another "help me decide" thread, but I really want to make the best decision possible for our upcoming trip. It will probably be the last one of this magnitude for a long while...My wife and I are planning to meet some friends in Thailand at the end of November. We have both wanted to do a liveaboard in Indonesia, so this is obviously the time to make it happen. So our timing would be in the November/ early December time frame. From the research I have done, it seems like Raja Ampat, Wakatobi, and Komodo are the best-of-the-best for diving. Would y'all agree? Do you recommend one over the other (or another all together)? Below is what my research has shown me. Again do y'all agree? Can't wait to hear!
Raja Ampat - Absolutely untouched. Large schools of fish. Some palegic (mantas, reef sharks, and occasional dolphins and whale sharks). Tons of coral. Tons of macro. [Viz only ok and currents ok in nov/dec?]
Wakatobi - Unique diving in the form of muck diving. Very little palegic activity. Incredible macro. [Less current and better viz compared to the other two?]
Komodo - strong currents. Palegic (mantas, sunfish, reef sharks). Macro. Diverse diving. [viz in nov/dec?]
