Wetpixel Ultimate Indonesia Expeditions, March/April 2009
NOTE: For current Wetpixel expeditions, please visit our expeditions page.
Join Eric Cheng and Indonesia dive-guide extraordinaire Graham Abbott in two chartered expeditions to Indonesia designed especially for serious photographers. Instead of hopping around from dive site to dive site, we will take our time with a flexible itinerary designed to give us a lot of time at areas that are rockin' with life.
We'll be aboard the Seven Seas, a fantastic luxury liveaboard vessel.

In just one trip to Indonesia (with Graham, in Fakfak), I captured all of the images on this page. Indonesia is a fantastic place for both wide-angle and macro photography, so be sure to bring equipment for both!
EXPEDITION #1 We'll depart Sorong (Raja Ampat area of Indonesia) and spend an entire day in the blue water mangroves to the west before continuing on to Halmahera, where we'll spend 9 days exploring. A day in Seram breaks up our steam to Ambon, where we'll spend 3 more days critter diving. |
EXPEDITION #2 We'll depart Ambon for the long steam through the Banda Sea to Gunung Api island, where we'll look for the large, resident population of sea kraits (snakes -- as featured in BBC's Planet Earth series). After 4-5 days, we'll steam to Alor, continuing on for world-class critter diving in Pantar, E. Flores, and finally, Maumere. |
