Rascal Voyages just launched its newest cruise in which guests learn about coral reefs, and even participate in conserving these precious and endangered marine systems. The 5-day conservation voyage explores the Indonesian area known as Raja Ampat, which contains a staggering 75 percent of all known coral species. That makes the region one of the most biodiverse places on earth. Guests enjoy the hands-on experience of saving this crucial environment, guided by experts from The SEA People, a nonprofit foundation dedicated to the preservation of coral reefs. Rascal Voyages is able to reach and explore this remote location which is only accessible by yacht.
