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 Memyai offers some of Raja Ampat's richest diving. Water ranges 29-30°C, warmest May, November, December.
Pulau Memyai doesn't always grab the headlines like some of Raja Ampat's rockstar sites, but we've always found it delivers a genuinely rewarding dive, especially for those who slow down and look. It's a slope that eases down from 5m to around 20m, really ideal for longer bottom times and focusing on the details. We've spent many an hour here spotting some genuinely interesting critters: the flowery flounder, a black rock pipefish tucked into a crevice, or if you’re lucky, a freckled anglerfish blending into the rubble. It’s a brilliant spot for macro enthusiasts, or anyone happy to trade big pelagics for the thrill of a discovery.
