    StandoutExceptional marine biodiversity

    GA's Flash in Raja Ampat offers a different kind of dive. Forget the usual coral garden here. We found ourselves looking closer, spotting things like the tiny Twostripe Eviota flitting among the seagrass beds – both thalassia and cymodocea are common. Keep an eye out for the big stuff too; Olive Ridley and Leatherback Sea Turtles have been known to cruise through, and we've even seen Reef Mantas here. It’s a site for those who enjoy slowing down and appreciating the subtle details rather than dramatic reefscapes.
