Raja Ampat Islands
ABOUT LA GALIGO
La Galigo was built in 2012, designed by an avid liveaboard diver. The idea was to create a liveaboard with the comfort and class of the more expensive liveaboards, but at a much more reasonable price. It is a traditional two mast Phinisi style sailboat with a sturdy Kalimantan ironwood hull and finished with tropical teak throughout the boat. Each of the cabins and ensuites are filled with light and offer spectacular views. The itinerary and tours will allow you to immerse yourself in the culture of this incredible country and its unsurpassed diving.
