Review of Raja Ampat diving

[billt4sf]

1 - Too many fish. Slow it down, please.

2 - Annoying baby sharks

3 - Someone hung their wetsuit on MY peg!

4 - Sun was out topside

5 - Soft coral colors very distracting

6 - Water same temp all year - boring!

7 - Water too wet

8 - Too many people saying Hello all the time.

9 - Wife in Phils taking care of aged mother, too many good-looking women.

10 - Women getting younger, bikinis getting smaller...


....Add yours.....

Couldn't get a clear view of the reefs, to many damn fish in the way.
Oceanic Manta are to big to fit in camera frame.
To many photo subjects to shoot, causing ADD to go to 10.
To many kinds of fish to remember to properly ID.
Epic diving ruins other destinations.
Ready to die now cause I've been there done that, can die happy.
Topside to pretty interfering with getting a proper nap.
Food to good and plentiful on LOB causing weight gain.
To many facinating guests to get to know properly.

Damn I better book another trip!

Ruined Caribbean diving

Dang Wobbegong Sharks under every bommie.
That manta wouldn't get out of my way so I could take a picture of the dolphin.
The guide keeps showing me pygmy seahorses!
Wake up... it's another _______ fill in the blank with: whale, pod of dolphins, and/or pilot whales.
Every time I take a picture of the sunset it looks like I am using a filter.
Men getting older and speedos getting smaller!!! (oh wait are these supposed to be positive negatives or negative positives?)

Too many coral types to be able to see all of them....stressful.

I agree with poster who said "ruined Caribbean diving". Phinisi sailing ships too beautiful, making all other lob's so hoohum. Colors have left me grasping for a descriptor, frustrating

(What boat were you on that had all the good food? I was less impressed)

 

[Darnold9999]

Damai I and Dewi both had excellent food. Ondina less so

Too many fish is a good thing. Where I live Florida there are barely any fish because people spearfish them all probably. I would like to dive there! My shop is going to Zanzibar

I was not thrilled with the food on the Dewi. I've heard there's been a chef change or two. Perhaps that's the difference.

Your shop is moving to Zanzibar is a surprise to me. I'm not too impressed with diving in Zanzibar.
