BIG BLUE Indonesia

BIG BLUE Indonesia Scuba diving is our passion and Raja Ampat is our home base. We rebuilt the traditional sailing Phinisi KLM GAYA BARU INDAH for diving in 2018.

On our traditional sailing ship, the GAYA BARU INDAH, we offer affordable liveaboard cruises for budget conscious divers and small groups in the Papua and Maluku provinces of Indonesia. BIG BLUE INDONESIA was founded by a group of scuba diving enthusiasts from Germany, France, Korea and Canada. On GAYA BARU INDAH we offer affordable liveaboard cruises for budget conscious divers and small groups

in the Papua and Maluku provinces of Indonesia. Raja Ampat is our main area of operation but we also offer cruises to Triton Bay and the Banda Sea. Unlike many other operators, we are permanently based in Raja Ampat. We buy as much of our supplies as possible from local farmers, fisherman and traders and contribute to the local community as part of our effort to support sustainable tourism. Our cruises on GAYA BARU INDAH last from 7 to 12 days depending on the route. We change our routes frequently, so those who look for a long cruise can combine 2 cruises and enjoy 2 entirely different journeys. For example combine Raja Ampat to Triton Bay with Triton Bay to the Banda Sea and enjoy a great adventure for 24 days. Our focus is first class diving and providing an unforgettable experience for our guests. We are conservation minded and promote a no touch approach to diving. Our permanent crew is multi lingual and speaks English, German, Korean and Indonesian. Guests can also book our boat for a private charter. This is ideal for a family or group of friends who wants to enjoy privacy and a custom tailored cruising route. We can accommodate your diving and snorkeling needs as well as land excursions, bird watching and island hoping. Please inquire here and let us know what you have in mind.

This is the reason why we insist that our guests have Advanced Open Water Scuba Diver as minimum qualification.

Stop nickel mining in Raja Ampat

Tambang nikel di Raja Ampat dapat menimbulkan berbagai dampak negatif, terutama terhadap lingkungan dan masyarakat lokal. Kerusakan ekosistem laut, pencemaran air, dan kehilangan mata pencaharian adalah beberapa ancaman yang perlu diperhatikan.
Berikut adalah dampak-dampak tambang nikel di Raja Ampat yang lebih detail:

Dampak Lingkungan:
Kerusakan Ekosistem Laut:
Aktivitas penambangan nikel dapat merusak terumbu karang dan ekosistem laut lainnya, yang merupakan keunikan Raja Ampat. Limbah tambang, termasuk logam berat seperti nikel, dapat mencemari perairan laut dan mengganggu keseimbangan ekosistem.

Pencemaran Air:
Limbah tambang, seperti limbah padat dan sisa proses pengolahan, dapat mencemari air sungai dan laut, sehingga membahayakan kehidupan ikan dan biota laut lainnya.
Sedimentasi Berlebih:
Limbah tambang, terutama limbah padat, dapat meningkatkan tingkat sedimentasi di perairan laut, yang dapat menghambat pertumbuhan terumbu karang dan mengganggu kehidupan laut.

Kerusakan Hutan:
Penambangan nikel juga dapat menyebabkan penggundulan hutan, yang berakibat pada penurunan keanekaragaman hayati dan peningkatan risiko erosi tanah.
Banjir dan Tanah Longsor:
Aktivitas tambang nikel yang tidak bertanggung jawab dapat meningkatkan risiko banjir dan tanah longsor, terutama di daerah dengan kemiringan lereng yang curam.

Dampak Sosial-Ekonomi:
Kehilangan Mata Pencaharian:
Aktivitas tambang nikel dapat menyebabkan masyarakat lokal kehilangan mata pencaharian, terutama mereka yang bergantung pada perikanan dan pariwisata.

Konflik Horizontal:
Pertambangan nikel juga dapat memicu konflik sosial antara masyarakat lokal dan perusahaan tambang, atau bahkan antar kelompok masyarakat yang berbeda.

Pengaruh Terhadap Pariwisata:
Kerusakan lingkungan akibat penambangan nikel dapat mengurangi daya tarik Raja Ampat sebagai destinasi pariwisata, yang berdampak pada ekonomi lokal.

Gangguan Kesehatan Masyarakat:
Pencemaran air dan udara akibat aktivitas tambang nikel dapat berdampak pada kesehatan masyarakat, terutama mereka yang tinggal di dekat lokasi tambang.
