It’s a Marine Mammal Interaction On A Large Scale While visitors to the Silver Bank are often surprised by the number of humpback whales and are thrilled by the variety of surface behavior on display, what draws most people is the opportunity to enter the whale's watery world to encounter them on a more personal level, an activity commonly referred to as "swimming with whales.".   Learn More >



Paradise Dancer Live-aboard Raja Ampat to North Sulawesi Indonesia

Interested in visiting two of Indonesia’s top dive destinations in one cruise?  Do you like getting off the beaten path and exploring areas that are seldom visited by others (even by Indonesian standards!)?   Then this is the cruise for you!   Paradise Dancer’s 14 day relocation cruise begins in Sorong (Raja Ampat) and finishes in North Sulawesi (Biting / Manado).   This is an active diving cruise where divers will complete 3-4 dives each day as the yacht transits the route between the two destinations.  Some sites are known – others are on our “exploration checklist” and are areas we have heard about and want to invest some time in checking out.  Learn More >
