Raja Ampat is not your typical beach holiday destination and is rather famous for its gigantic jungle tops and mangrove forests that hold the coastline together. Indonesia does not only have the most abundant biodiversity of marine species, but it’s also known for having over an estimate of 23 percent of the world’s mangroves along its coastlines – which is about 3 million hectares of mangrove forest!
With the resort nestled behind one of these mangrove forests, we also have access to some amazing beaches in our area and we can help you to get there. We have a ‘boat taxi’ daily to Palau Saonek Mondei – which is an uninhabited island with sun, shade, and crystal-clear water, perfect for a day of swimming and snorkelling. Or you can rent a scooter or get a local taxi head up the only road to Saporkren Village or Putras Beach or Saleo beach, where you can spend a few hours walking through the village, having a a bite to eat or coffee at a local restaurant and relax on the beach where you can also snorkel.
