One of the most amazing places in Raja Ampat. Fresh water is clear for snorkeling, beautiful coral reefs dotted with beautiful fish. We can also see sharks here. an amazing experience. We can also climb some hills here, but it takes strong stamina.

Goa Keramat Pulau Misool

Reviewed By Sampari_JR89

This is one of a great Cave in Misool Raja Ampat. I visited it three times in 2013, 2018 and 2019. It has many uniqueness. You can swim inside the cave, enjoy the beautiful scenary and there is a stone looks like a Chair in it, the villagers used to call it "Kursi Raja/ King's Chair"). For the other friends who want to come and enjoy this awesome cave, please take care of the enviroment for the next generation. ???????? Regards, Sampari

Pasir Timbul Beach

Reviewed By armandu2018

Getting to Pasir Timbul Beach is quite tricky. Even if your local boat driver cannot tell you when exactly Pasir Timbul (Surfaced Sand/Sand Bar) will surfaced during the day. Lucky for us, we landed just right when it was low tide. We took many, many fun pictures. Other than that, there isn't much to see. It is only a Sand Bar after all. However, it is not just another Sand Bar. It is a Sand Bar with many fun memories shared between your love ones and family members that you cherished all your lives.

Lenmakana Jellyfish Lake

Reviewed By Simonlorenz - Hong Kong, China

This is really a must-do experience when you are in Misool area. But beware of the climb, you need good shoes and should only carry something small on your back. It is very easy to injure yourself on the climb, but the experience is definitely worth it.
