The Kri Eco Resort was the first landbased operation in Raja Ampat to be built. Owner Max Ammer first started diving the region some 20 odd years ago, bringing small groups of Dutch divers with him on semi commercial expeditions. Kri Resort is located in the heart of the Dampiar Strait, a channel of water in the northern territory which funnels nutrient rich waters and in turn attracts stacks of marine life. During my visit I spent may last day kayaking and snorkeling around the island (I had a flight to catch the following morning (otherwise I’d have been below the surface)- it was absolute bliss.
