The mimic octopus (Thaumoctopus mimicus) can impersonate more than a dozen other species, lionfish, flatfish, sea snakes, switching between them within minutes, all while being none of them.

Notice how still you have to stay to keep it “performing.”

Kalabahi Bay, Alor.
Mountains frame the water as guests come aboard Malaillo, with small boats crossing in the evening light. If conditions allow, the first check dive might begins here.

Around Komba Island, on the Malaillo's Alor route, wide layers of foliose coral cover the walls and slopes, creating shelter for schools of fusiliers and trevally moving through the reef.

Goldlined sweetlips school beneath the ledges and coral overhangs of Cape Kri, one of Raja Ampat's most iconic dive sites.

Malaillo runs it as part of the Dampier Strait check dives, alongside Friwin and Sawandarek.
By day, the sweetlips barely move, dozens of them stacked together like living sculptures until dusk draws them out to feed.

Between dives, Malaillo usually berthing in calm, sheltered water, with just enough movement to remind you that you’re still at sea.
The bow is where you’ll find the ocean breeze, a place to sit back between dives and let the day slow down a little.

Soft corals don’t need to stand still. They need current.
Unlike hard corals, soft corals like gorgonians and sea fans don’t build rigid calcium skeletons. Their flexible structure lets them move with the water, while their branches catch plankton carried through the current.

Somewhere off Kolorai, lay down a ship and has been growing ever since.

The Susi Wreck has rested off Kolorai since World War II. Once a Japanese vessel, it has been slowly reclaimed by the sea, its hull now covered in corals, sponges, and marine life. What was once a ship has become a thriving reef, where history and nature exist side by side.

It's one of the highlights of Malaillo's Morotai itineraries, a dive that offers not only incredible marine life, but also a glimpse into the region's past beneath the surface.
