Hello fellow divers! Needing some input on what to expect on my first dive trip to Raja Ampat. I am planning on staying at the Cove Eco Resort near Gam and the Fam islands this coming December.
I have gone down the never ending rabbit hole of trying to understand what to expect as far as visibility in December in the area. I do love good vis.
So, can anyone tell me what their vis experiences were diving in this area in December? How many meters roughly? If the vis was significantly diminished did it impact your experience, or was the fish life just so incredible that it didn't really matter?
I have heard that going during the windy season offers better vis due to less plankton blooms. Anyone recommend that season over the seemingly more popular time of november-march?
Thanks so much!
