Underwater reef at Banda Sea
Thriving

Banda Sea

Indonesia · Southeast Asia

One of the last truly wild diving frontiers on earth — a deep open ocean basin ringed by volcanic peaks, where hammerheads school in blue water, whale sharks cruise the surface, and sheer walls plunge thousands of metres into the abyss. Liveaboard-only access keeps diver numbers minimal and marine life fearless.
