Raja Ampat.

More snorkeling trips during our final day and a half in Raja Ampat, including a sighting of three dugongs which was probably the highlight of this trip. We then headed back to Sorong, this time using a public ferry from Waisai. There we enjoyed one more evening with Freddy before flying back to Jakarta on Saturday morning.
