Dive into the Seas and Oceans
3D2N : Diving at Riau Islands

Travel with style and comfort with MV Nautica. Dive Southern Riau Island like never before, on a relaxed liveaboard experience.

Introduction
Riau Islands, for what we know, boast healthy corals and some really interesting marine life.

Wide variety of macro life – including nudibranches, lots of reef fishes and the occasional turtles.

The whole archipelago to the south of Singapore is called the Riau Islands. this includes Batam and Bintan which have become built up as cheap Indonesian labour is attractive to Singapore manufacturers. As you get further down between Batam and Bintan and beyond it changes a lot. Sparcely populated coastline and uninhabited little islands proliferate and this is where we go looking for new dive sites.

Do allow one week time for processing, booking of accommodation and dive trip.
