Detours by Aggressor pairs the liveaboard experience with land-based adventures in Raja Ampat and beyond — dive resorts, beachfront bungalows, and a rainforest wildlife safari for a change of pace between dives.

Waiwo Resort Dive Center

Tucked into a quiet bay just outside Waisai, Waiwo Resort Dive Center puts you within easy reach of Raja Ampat’s famous reefs without sacrificing comfort. Simple beachfront bungalows, an on-site dive center, and a private dock make it easy to roll out of bed and into the water.

It’s a relaxed, no-frills base for divers who want maximum time underwater and minimal fuss on the surface — ideal for exploring Dampier Strait’s soft coral gardens and schooling reef fish.

White Sands Beach Resort

White Sands Beach Resort sits on one of Raja Ampat’s most photogenic stretches of coastline, where an on-site dive center and drone-worthy views come standard. Choose from oceanview cottages, triple rooms, or beachfront terraces, all just steps from the water.

Between dives, guests can relax poolside, explore the reef by dive boat, or watch the sun go down over the bay. It’s a comfortable home base for divers who want resort amenities alongside serious diving access.

Rimba Orangutan Ecolodge & River Safari

Note: this add-on is located in Borneo, not Raja Ampat — a topside pairing for divers extending their Indonesia trip.

A change of pace from the reef: Rimba Orangutan Ecolodge takes you deep into Borneo’s rainforest for a river safari in search of wild orangutans, proboscis monkeys, and long-tailed macaques. Simple, comfortable lodge rooms and home-style dining put you right in the heart of the jungle.

It’s a natural add-on for divers looking to pair their Indonesia liveaboard trip with a completely different kind of wildlife encounter — topside instead of under it.
