Head to Mansuar if you
want to encounter groups of
manta rays.

Raja Ampat is famous for its
striking karst island seascapes.

Gelembung udara muncul bak
berlian dari dasar laut vulkanik
hitam di saat gunung berapi
bawah laut sedang bergejolak.
Menyelam ke bawah melewati
gerombolan ikan, Anda dapat
meletakkan tangan di atas
lubang vulkanik untuk
merasakan panas yang keluar
dari lajur yang terdapat di
sepanjang Cincin Api.

A blue seastar clings to a coral
bommie in a protected lagoon in
Raja Ampat.

Air bubbles rise like diamonds
out of the black volcanic seabed
as an underwater volcano
simmers broodingly. Diving
down past kaleidoscopic schools
of fish you can push your hand
into a volcanic vent to feel the
heat pulsing out of the fiery
artery that runs right along
the legendary Ring of Fire.
