Trip to Paradies in the only Boat in the Deep North

My trip into the Deep North with Carpe Novo was a really nice experience. The Dive Sites, the Visibility and the sight was better than expected. We saw a lot of special stuff that really takes me into paradise for 11 days. Special for me was the Leopard shark, the Guitar ray, and some very small eagle rays that have no fear at all of divers. We are the only boat at the dive sites and we also saw a lot of different Swarm Fishes. Even very close without any fear.

Raja Ampat: A Diver’s Paradise and My New Favorite Destination

Even though the vessel shows some signs of wear and could use a bit of maintenance, the outstanding crew and their unwavering dedication to fulfilling every guest’s needs more than make up for it. Raja Ampat is simply breathtaking—every dive site is teeming with marine life, vibrant corals, and stunning underwater landscapes. The beauty above the water is just as mesmerizing, reminiscent of the world of Avatar.
Having dived across the Bahamas, Florida, the Red Sea, Malta, Croatia, Italy, France, Greece, Spain the Maldives, Thailand, and the Seychelles, Raja Ampat has now become my absolute favorite. I will definitely return for many more unforgettable experiences.
A heartfelt thank you to Fitli and the entire Seaisee crew for making this trip so special. I can’t wait to come back and explore even more incredible dive sites with you!

  • Separate Rinsing Tanks for Underwater Cameras: These are dedicated tanks filled with fresh water where photographers can rinse off their camera equipment after a dive. Having separate tanks prevents cross-contamination from general scuba equipment, maintaining the integrity of sensitive camera components
