Diving Indonesia

The islands of Indonesia spread in a wide arc, more than 5,000 kilometers long, from mainland South East Asia to Papua New Guinea. Dotted with volcanoes, covered with thick tropical vegetation, bright green rice fields and surrounded by coral reefs, the Indonesian archipelago is one of the world's most beautiful places!

Indonesia is the largest archipelagic nation in the world, with more than 80,000 kilometers of coastline and over three million square kilometers of territorial waters. Officially, the archipelago contains 13,677 islands - from specks of rock to huge islands, such as Sumatra and Borneo.

Destination Iran Jaya - the Indonesian province that covers the western half of the large island of New Guinea, one of the world's last unknown expanses, especially underwater. Diving is outstanding, offering diverse coral, stunning fish life, turtles, dugongs, sharks, rays, whales, all a common sight, not to mention an abundance of ships and aircraft wrecks just now being discovered.
