The island of Misool has some of the most amazing sights in the Raja Ampat archipelago, and because of its remoteness, it’s still kind of a hidden gem in Indonesia.

I spent a week in Misool recently and this place has it all: stunning scenery, great snorkeling, heart-shaped lagoons, limestone caves, and even a lake where you can swim with stingless jellyfish.

Misool looks like an alien planet! Even though most of the accommodation there is very basic, that keeps the crowds away, and it’s worth it for the experience.

This travel guide will explain how to get to Misool, where to stay, and what to see and do there!
