Conservation In Raja Ampat And The Greater Birds Head Seascape
Since 2004 Raja Ampat and the surrounding areas of the wider Birds Head Seascape (BHS) have been the focus of comprehensive, long-term conservation initiatives. The area’s
priority in the world of marine conservation is justified, considering that the Birds Head is home to more marine species than any other area its size on the planet. For example, more than 70% of the world’s hard corals are represented, as are more than 1700 species of fish. Regional dive operators agree that their guests see more fish surrounding healthier reefs than they did a decade ago.
