To reach Raja Ampat you fly into Sorong and then cross to Waisai, the archipelago’s capital. The public ferry only sails once or twice a day, and if your flight is late you can miss it. With a private speedboat you leave when you land.
How it works
- We meet you at Sorong airport with a name sign.
- Car transfer to the port with your luggage.
- Private speedboat to Waisai in about 2 hours, depending on the sea.
- Option to continue to your homestay, resort or boat in the Dampier Strait.
Who it is for
Groups and crews boarding a phinisi or staying on the islands, and anyone whose flights do not match the ferry.
Good to know
The price is per boat. The marine park permit is arranged in Waisai. Keep your luggage well protected from spray.
Available: all year; from June to September seas can be rougher.
