Day 1: 
Reception at Sorong airport. Transfer to the boat. Welcome drink, briefing. Departure in the afternoon. Check dive.

Day 2-11: 
After checking in and when the boat is ready to lift the anchor, we will navigate the rest of the day and the night to reach Misool, where we will spend the first four days. We will visit the most iconic spots of Misool: Daram, Fiabacet, Wayil and the Boo area, where all the most fantastic dive sites await you. No long navigation in Misool; all the dive sites are close to each other.

Misool is excellent for taking wide-angle shots and encounters with mantas and massive schools of fish. The abundance of sea life, both fixed fauna such as corals and gorgonians along the lush reef, as well as the stunning quantity and diversity of fish swimming above, is just astonishing.

After a night navigation, we stop at Pulau Pisang in the Maluku Sea on our way to Halmahera. Great dive sites with a mix of ridges, slopes, small walls and plateaus with plenty of fish and colorful coral reefs. After another night of navigation, we reach the west part of Halmahera and continue further north to the Patienti strait between Halmahera and Bacan island. 
 
The 2 islands of Saleh and Kusu, plus some other smaller ones, partially close the strait, forcing the water between the islands with currents bringing a lot of life. we will then dive for 2 days in the area of the Goraichi islands. Seamounts and rocky islets form the dive sites, attracting a great deal of marine life.

Our last dive will be near Tidore and Ternate islands. 

Day 12: Disembarkation
Breakfast, Check-out according to guests' flight schedule. Transfer to Ternate airport, check-in assistance.
