Why dive here
With 236+ marine species recorded in the area - including blacktip reef sharks, manta rays, mobula rays (devil rays), pygmy seahorses and sea turtles - Pulau Dua Express offers some of Raja Ampat's richest diving. Water ranges 29-30°C, warmest May, November, December.
Pulau Dua Express is a drift dive, as the name suggests, often delivering a brisk ride along its reef wall. We've seen schools of barracuda and trevally here, sometimes even a passing manta ray if you hit it just right. The current can be significant, so it's a spot best enjoyed by experienced divers comfortable with faster movements. It's a great choice if you're looking for that exhilarating feeling of flying underwater.
Safety Notes
Strong currents typical this month (avg 35 cm/s). Good buoyancy control essential.
