Customer Reviews
“Putiraja is one incredible liveaboard. I find this nice pinisi boat stylish. It has a relaxing ambiance which is suitable in unwinding and loosening up from life’s stress.
One of the things I liked about Putiraja was their massive deck. They had clean and spacious cabins. I enjoyed having my dinner outdoor while taking in the breathtaking view of Raja Ampat. Thanks to the hospitable owners of this boat who were good-natured and sociable.
We were with other 9 guests when we boarded Putiraja. We had pretty interesting dives. The staffs on the boat were cordial and vigorous in providing assistance to us. The only thing missing on Putiraja was the internet. I could have used the connection to get in touch with my loved ones and clients. However, I didn’t dwell much about it. Raja Ampat has more panoramic underwater scenery which really called for my attention.
We also had the best times digging and devouring on their delicious local and international foods and beverages. They often served us fruit drinks like avocado juice and mango smoothie after every dive. Drinking water, tea, coffee, cookies and other snacks are all free of charge. We can’t wait to have another sightseeing, exploration and diving adventure with Putiraja!”

I can hardly believe that this 110ft long wonderful pinisi was once a cargo ship! It sure has been well updated to suit the most discerning diver’s needs.
The cabins are spacious and all have their own bathroom and AC control. All the facilities are on board to insure a constant flow of fresh water and there are solar panels so we can have warm and hot water. The water is purified so we can drink it. There’s a nice lounging area, beautiful and partly shaded sun deck. The food is alway great and nutritious. They served a mix of Indonesian and western dishes and all was tasty.
The diving facilities are great, equipment is of good quality and everything is made so your diving experience is the most comfortable. The crew is knowledgable, they have lots of ID books and they are helpful in the identification process.
Diving in the area of Raja Ampat was great and full of surprises! I fully recommend this trip and this vessel to everybody!
