World Oceans Day 2026

As attention turns towards ocean conservation, Atzaró Collection is celebrating World Oceans Day 2026 by spotlighting Misool in Raja Ampat, Indonesia.

This remote region ranks among the world’s leading dive destinations. Visitors discover remarkable biodiversity and some of the planet’s most pristine coral reefs.

Exploring Raja Ampat Aboard Prana by Atzaró

Guests access the islands aboard Prana by Atzaró, an award-winning luxury phinisi yacht designed for diving adventures and island exploration.

The handcrafted vessel offers 900 square metres of living space and nine luxurious suites.

Life onboard combines adventure with comfort. Guests enjoy fine dining, a wellness spa, yoga sessions, watersports and open-air cinema experiences.

Prana by Atzaró has earned a place on the prestigious Condé Nast Traveller Gold List. Forbes also described the experience as “probably the best charter yacht experience in the world”.

Raja Ampat: The Heart of Marine Biodiversity

Raja Ampat lies within the Coral Triangle, widely recognised as Earth’s richest marine ecosystem.

The region supports more than 75% of known coral species. It also hosts an extraordinary abundance of marine life.

Unlike many heavily visited reef destinations, Raja Ampat remains largely untouched. Its remote location naturally limits visitor numbers and helps preserve fragile ecosystems.

As a result, divers experience marine environments functioning on a truly natural scale.

Misool’s Exceptional Dive Sites

Southern Raja Ampat, particularly around Misool, offers some of the world’s most celebrated dive locations.

Strong conservation efforts and healthy reef systems continue to attract divers from across the globe.

The Daram Islands: A Marine Life Spectacle

The Daram Islands rank among Raja Ampat’s most respected dive destinations.

Sites including Many Colours, Candy Store, Andiamo and Andy’s Ultimate teem with marine life.

Divers regularly encounter schools of chevron barracuda, batfish, sweetlips and fusiliers. Reef sharks, giant groupers and Napoleon wrasse also patrol these waters.

Meanwhile, pygmy seahorses, nudibranchs and colourful crustaceans inhabit the vibrant coral gardens.

Magic Mountain: The Realm of the Mantas

Magic Mountain, also known as Karang Bayangan, remains one of Raja Ampat’s most iconic dive sites.

The submerged pinnacle acts as a natural cleaning station for manta rays.

Divers frequently witness both reef mantas and oceanic mantas circling above the reef. Few locations worldwide offer such encounters.

Large schools of trevally, barracuda and snapper further enhance the spectacle.

Boo Window and Boo Point

Boo Window has become one of Indonesia’s most photographed underwater landmarks.

The site features a natural archway carved through the reef, creating a dramatic frame for the surrounding ocean.

Nearby Boo Point attracts manta rays to its cleaning stations. The area also supports thriving coral gardens and abundant reef fish.

Shallow sections suit snorkellers, while deeper walls appeal to experienced divers.

Four Kings: Diving Among the Pinnacles

Named after the translation of Raja Ampat, Four Kings consists of four submerged pinnacles.

Each pinnacle supports its own ecosystem. Strong currents attract vast schools of fish and larger pelagic species.

Divers commonly spot manta rays and spotted eagle rays moving between the formations.

The site’s size often requires multiple dives to fully appreciate its diversity.

Neptune’s Fan Sea: A Coral Wonderland

Neptune’s Fan Sea showcases some of Raja Ampat’s richest coral habitats.

Colourful sea fans, soft corals and sponges cover the reef from shallow waters to depths of around 28 metres.

The site offers excellent snorkelling opportunities. It also provides a haven for smaller marine species.

Visitors may encounter moray eels, scorpionfish, butterflyfish and hawksbill turtles among the coral formations.

Celebrating and Protecting the Oceans

World Oceans Day highlights the importance of protecting marine ecosystems for future generations.

Raja Ampat remains one of the world’s most intact reef systems. Its thriving biodiversity demonstrates what healthy oceans can achieve.

Prana by Atzaró offers guests a unique opportunity to experience these remarkable waters responsibly.

The yacht’s slow-travel philosophy encourages a deeper connection with nature while supporting appreciation for marine conservation.
