Descriptive Text: Raja Ampat+Jawaban

SOAL UN SMA 2012

Raja Ampat or 'Four Kings', is the name given to some islands in West Papua and comes

from a local myth. The four major islands are Waigeo, Misool (which is home to ancient rock

painting), Salawati, and Batanta. Raja Ampat is located in the bird head of the island of Papua.

Underwater enthusiasts flock to this region because it offers the world's best marine sight. In the

Raja Ampat islands, divers can explore vertical underwater walls. The thrill of drift diving is

another great challenge.

The territory within the islands of the Four Kings is enormous, covering 9.8 million acres

of land and sea, home to 540 types of corals, more than 1,000 types of coral fish and 700 types

of mollusks. This makes it the most diverse living library for world's coral reef and underwater

biota. According to a report developed by The Nature Conservancy and Conservation

International, around 75% of the world's species live here.

When divers first arrive here their excitement is palpable. It's common to hear people

praise God as they take in the remarkable scenery. Others prefer to remain in silence taking in

the overwhelming sight of so many islands with crystal clear water that softly brushes over the

white sandy beaches
