Paradise, found
If you dream of visiting a tropical paradise that's still largely untouched by people, you could do worse than plan a future trip to Wayag Island. It's part of the Raja Ampat (four kings) district in the province of West Papua, Indonesia. Most of the roughly 50,000 inhabitants of this area live on or around its four main islands - Batanta, Misool, Salawati and Waigeo. The remainder of Raja Ampat is made up of roughly 1,500 smaller islands, reefs and sandbanks - astonishingly, hundreds of these tiny islands have yet to be explored by humans.
