Raja Ampat is among the few areas in the world where colorful soft corals, Dendronepthya sp., grow within inches of the surface, sometimes attached mangrove roots. Healthy mangrove forests are a prime feature of Raja Ampat, and are key to healthy marine habitat, functioning as nurseries to many species.
