Raja Ampat Guide | Papua Barat | Indonesia

Raja Ampat Guide | Papua Barat | Indonesia

Why is Raja Ampat so species rich?
Sea conditions around Raja Ampat have remained relatively stable for millions of years, this, combined with a great diversity of habitats, has enabled a huge biodiversity to develop. Located at the crossroads of two major continents (Asia and Australia) with a complex set of islands around the whole of the Birds Head Seascape, conditions have been ideal for speciation to occur. Ie the evolution of new species. Hence the comment – “Raja Ampat is one giant species factory”
