Built in South Sulawesi, Mari is a traditional Indonesian phinisi offering year-round trips to Raja Ampat and The Forgotten Islands. Mari can accommodate up to 14 guests within 7 cabins, including 3 deluxe and 4 superior cabins, each offering controlled AC, storage space, and an en-suite. The top deck features a range of space, both shaded and in the sun, for guests to kick back and relax between dives while an inside lounge offers 360 degree views of the ocean. Western and Indonesian food are served onboard, where there is a set menu each night and the chance to dine al-fresco. For 13, 11 or 6 nights, delve into Raja Ampat. The longest trip, of 13 nights, will explore islands that are almost completely unvisited, where unique languages are spoken among the locals and the untouched reef is thriving. Decide whether to visit South, Central or North Raja - or a combination - where giant manta rays, sea turtles, sharks, cuttlefish, seahorse, and the intriguing epaulette shark reside.
