“Ik heb echt genoten van de ontspannen sfeer op de boot. ”
Hoogtepunten
Het Epica liveaboard is een budget vriendelijke optie voor een duikvakantie naar Raja Ampat. Het schip is simpel, maar comfortabel ingericht en kan maximaal 12 gasten onderbrengen in 6 basic cabines. De cabines bevinden zich op het bovendek en delen 2 badkamers met vers water douches. Alle maaltijden worden vers bereid, zijn een mix van lokale en internationale gerechten en worden in familie stijl geserveerd op het bovendek. Het bovendek is daarnaast voorzien van hangmatten en zitzakken. Dit maakt het een fijne plek om tussen de duiken door te ontspannen of aan het einde van de dag te genieten van de zonsondergang.
De duiken vinden plaats met een maximum van 4 duikers per gids en delen zich, indien nodig, op op basis van ervaring. Op deze manier kan iedereen het meest uit zijn duiken halen. Geniet van de diverse onderwaterwereld, waar verschillende kleine wezens, maar ook grotere vissoorten als manta's en haaien gevonden kunnen worden. Daarnaast krijgen duikers de kans om een bezoek te brengen aan een van de beroemde uitkijkpunten van Raja Ampat. De reizen met de Epica zijn ontworpen om het meeste uit uw duikvakantie te halen wanneer u een budget heeft.

Excellent budget liveaboard
Diving in Raja Ampat was magical. Almost every dive site was beautiful. Before diving these sites the guides provided detailled briefings, as some dive sites can have strong currents (the dive guides provide some reef hooks, but I would bring my own if I were you). Those briefings proved to be accurate. Next to that we visited the land on a couple of occasions, giving you the chance to see the villages. Reason for the 4 out 5 comfort review: the generator, compressor and toiled flushing machine make quite a bit of sound (though they were working on new ones). Reason for the 4 out of 5 review for diving: there is no nitrox on the boat and one guide sometimes missed the current split.

Fantastic trip!
Diving with epica was perfect. The food was great, the Indonesian crew was fantastic, and the diving was amazing. The room was definitely no frills (two bunk beds with AC), but i only went there to sleep at night. Spent most time in the water or up top relaxing. I might suggest putting guests on the other side of the boat, as the generator operating the ac is quite loud for guests at night. The 7 days trip was perfect for me, though i can see more hardcore divers adding a few days to get a little further north. Everything we did could have been done by day trips from the Wassai area, which was fine with me as this was my first time in Raja.

Great!
Two Americans on epica for the week, 19 dives, great food but lots of fried food. Always rice, veggies and protein, we are vegan and always had tofu or tempeh. Easy accommodations with AC! 12 people on board plus staff, two bathrooms. Great staff, always excited to see you! Diving with groups of 3-4. Great experience! Top dives in raja Ampat!

Incredible trip!
We saw so many incredible things like Pygmy seahorses, tons of reef mantas swimming above us, 2 oceanic rays (this was rare!), octopuses, sharks like black and white tip reefs and wobbegongs. Our dive master Rolly was awesome, the food was good, things happened on schedule (I love the punctuality!) and the weather was superb. I’ll remember this forever

Couldn't have asked for a better experience
Josh and his crew did everything they could to make this an unforgettable experience. Everything was perfect from the moment we stepped on the boat until we sadly got dropped back off at the port. If you need 5star accommodations, this isn't for you, but if your looking for great diving, great people and great food could not find a better option.

Amazing diving and wonderful guides
By far, the quality of the diving was the highlight of the trip. All the central Raja Ampat dives were gorgeous. The guides were knowledgeable and safe. Another highlight was the short hike up to the look out in pianemo geo.

An Epic-a Experience
The Epica liveaboard was a wonderful experience! I went in July and got to see some amazing marine animals, the most beautiful corals, and most of the dive sites were only our group or very few other people since it was off season. The reefs were amazing and we even got to see a manta (despite time of year)! The trip had 18 dives and they were all so wonderful, I can't pick one as my favorite. Raja Ampat does not disappoint and totally lives up to the hype. I came here as a new diver and was nervous that I wouldn't be able to hold up but Josh and Stefan quickly helped and guided me to becoming an advanced diver. They're both extremely knowledgeable about the area - both on land and under water. Josh and Stefan went above and beyond to make sure that the trip was amazing and that everyone was having a great experience. In fact, the entire crew of the Epica were amazing and wonderful. The crew were so kind, keep the boat running smoothly, made sure all the gear was good to go, tanks filled, and the chef is amazing. The food was always great and they are accommodating to any food allergies. I feel like 7 days wasn't enough, I could have gone for a few more.

Epic experience
It is difficult to pinpoint because there were so many. The diving was magical. I have never seen such a variety and great numbers of fish and sea life and the coral/plant life of the reefs were stunning. This is the diving that can bring you to tears of joy. The shore excursions were great too, especially the trip to the Pianemo Viewpoint and the beach BBQ.

- Phenomenal diving: from sea creatures to coral and reef variety. Outstanding crew: our dive guides and crew made the trip unforgettable. Quality of the trip for the price cannot be beat.
