What’s the best way to dive in Raja Ampat? By liveaboard, right? That is what we thought until we discovered the Misool Eco Resort and we have had to seriously re-think that assumption. We are now able to offer you an Early Bird special offer at 10% off! This offer is only available from Dive The World. Read on to find out more …

When you set foot on the jetty and make your way to the central restaurant, the view tells a story. A small shallow bay where turquoise waters gently lap a fine sandy beach is the first to catch your eye. Then you see the two rocky arms of the bay stretching out with delightful chalets lining the shore. Beyond, you gaze out across the remote, rich waters of Raja Ampat to distant verdant islands on the horizon.

Dive The World has the following exclusive offer especially for you:

In a time when the word ‘Eco’ appears everywhere, it is great to see a resort with credentials including:

• Every single piece of lumber used in building has been milled from salvaged driftwood and free-fallen timbers collected in Raja Ampat
• Collected rainwater is used for showering
• Grey water is processed with waste water gardens and then redirected to flush toilets
• The resort has implemented a community agreement for a 200 sq km Marine protected Area (no fishing zone)
• Their conservation initiatives are funded by WildAid and they now have boat patrols 4 times a week to protect their no-take zone.
• There is an emphasis on employing and buying from local people as well as implementing social projects to provide alternative means of income to local people

Note that all this good work is in addition to providing you with some of the best diving you can imagine. Dive sites like the legendary Fiabacet come within the Marine Protected Area. The fabulous Farondi island and The Passage are both within easy reach, plus the house reef provides the type of night dive any resort can be proud of. There are so many excellent diving spots nearby that the list is practically inexhaustible.

In short, Misool Eco Resort will soon become a place that tops every serious diver’s ‘Must visit’ list. If you go now, you will have bragging rights forever more! on the other hand, the serenity and hideaway nature of the resort makes it the perfect spot for honeymooners.
