Bonded by two great oceans, the Pacific and the Indian Ocean, and bridging two continents, Asia and Australia, lies a shallow sea trough brimming with nutrient-rich currents essential for marine life to thrive. This region, renowned among marine scientists as The Coral Triangle of Indonesia, teems with biodiversity. Vela offers exclusive access to the pristine wilderness of the world’s richest reefs. Envision 13 million acres of untouched coral reefs nestled within 411 Marine Protected Areas, awaiting exploration 365 days a year. Encounter the majestic whale shark, the largest fish in the world, alongside the delicate Bargibant’s pygmy seahorse, amidst this underwater wonderland. For clients who cherish destinations like the Okavango Delta, the Amazon, or the Galapagos, this is an essential addition to their bucket list.
