Raja Ampat Islands

Raja Ampat Islands: The Raja Ampat (or 'Four Kings') islands are no doubt among the most sought-out dive destination in the world, but they’re also great for sailing, island-hopping and hiking. Located off the northwestern tip of Bird's Head Peninsula on the island of New Guinea in Indonesia's West Papua province, they are best explored through the sea with a slow boat. Here, a rainbow rose over Misool Eco Resort. How to get there: Fly into Sorong, the capital of West Papua, and then head out by boat.
