Raja Ampat sits at the very heart of the Coral Triangle — the most biodiverse marine region on the planet. For wide-angle photography, it’s hard to imagine a more spectacular setting: dramatic limestone islands, crystal-clear water, and reefs overflowing with life. Schools of fish move like living clouds above hard coral gardens, while giant mantas sweep gracefully through the currents.
From the famous jetty dives where soft corals explode with colour, to the vast seascapes of Misool and the channels of Dampier Strait, every dive in Raja Ampat feels like swimming through a living tapestry. Light shafts cut through the blue, silhouettes of trevallies hunt, and reefs are so alive it’s difficult to decide where to point the lens.
This gallery captures the sense of abundance and wonder that makes Raja Ampat one of the world’s ultimate wide-angle destinations.
