The water is so cool and clear and blue that it looks like it\u2019s drawn from a commercial for Bombay Sapphire.<\/span><span><br \/><\/span><span><br \/><\/span><span>We hike in and there\u2019s a local family in the water. They smile and we wave and the kids do what kids do. Soon they leave and we have this little grotto to ourselves, swimming like the little ones.<\/span><span class=\"white-space-pre\"> <\/span><span><br \/><\/span><span><br \/><\/span><span>I am so out of place. If you looked up the word \u2018tourist\u2019 in a dictionary there would be a picture of me now, waving with my backpack and cap and reflecting orange sunglasses, a camera strung around my neck and my impossibly white legs in impossibly big shoes.<\/span><span><br \/><\/span><span><br \/><\/span><span>Who better to appear in the documentary and offer the visitor\u2019s perspective on tourism in Raja Ampat!? I kind of leap at the opportunity, particularly after Kevin tells me he\u2019ll overdub my voice with a deep French accent.<\/span><span><br \/><\/span><span><br \/><\/span><em><strong>I talk about the privilege of visiting places like this, about having a light footprint and the importance of understanding and respecting local custom and tradition.<span class=\"white-space-pre\"> <\/span><\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p>I also talk about the tension between tourism investment, environmental protection and cultural integrity.<span class=\"white-space-pre\"> <\/span><\/p>\n<p>People like me come to \u2018get away from it all\u2019 and then try and change the things that drew them in the first place. We start with a sense of achievement at our adventures off grid but the cycle turns quickly. Soon we want to speak English and eat hamburgers while we enjoy our \u2018adventure\u2019 in comfort and post photos online. Instagram influencers descend, snap and move on and behind them come a conga line of selfie-chasers who interact through a camera lens. Then we all moan about how great it \u2018used to be\u2019.<span><br \/><\/span><span><br \/><\/span><em><strong>There\u2019s already evidence of that starting to happen here, but not today.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p>I think ultimately the choice about how these places develop should always be in the hands of their local owners and custodians. I just hope they decide that in this place, the best change is no more change at all.<span><br \/><\/span><span><br \/><\/span><span>During the trek we see a bird of paradise and we stop to watch a metre-long sailfin iguana by the riverside. The iguana is primal and beautiful with searing blue eyes and there\u2019s little evidence of them being documented here.<\/span><span><br \/><\/span><span><br \/><\/span><span>After lunch I return to the main boat. It\u2019s just me and Roy and while he naps I pretend I\u2019m here all by myself, moored in this bay. I\u2019m Robinson Crusoe.<\/span><span class=\"white-space-pre\"> <\/span><span><br \/><\/span><span><br \/><\/span><span>At night a large banded krate (sea snake) climbs into the runabout and tries to take up residence in the motor. After awhile we manage to move it on as it seeks safe harbour elsewhere.<\/span><span><br \/><\/span><span><br \/><\/span><span>Our night dive in the muck is incredible. Cuttlefish here, spider crabs there, weird nudibranchs and shrimp of every colour and many things we can\u2019t name. They all emerge in the deep dark 15 metres down as we glide across the silty bottom on a moonless night.<\/span><span><br \/><\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><br \/>Source:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/posts\/greg-johannes-281974166_marineconservation-coralreefs-reefrestoration-activity-7215962491632111616-kJg7?utm_source=share&amp;utm_medium=member_desktop\">LinkedIn | Greg Johannes<\/a><br \/><strong>Photo:<\/strong> Greg Johannes<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.25.1&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; text_font=&#8221;Lora||||||||&#8221; text_font_size=&#8221;18px&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;40px||||false|false&#8221; custom_margin_tablet=&#8221;||||false|false&#8221; custom_margin_phone=&#8221;||||false|false&#8221; custom_margin_last_edited=&#8221;on|phone&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"p3\"><em><\/em><strong>Past Entries:\u00a0<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span><em><span class=\"s1\">About The Author: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/greg-johannes-281974166\/?lipi=urn%3Ali%3Apage%3Ad_flagship3_profile_view_base_recent_activity_content_view%3BOZQETgWXSrGF3nGCvi3pOQ%3D%3D\">Greg Johannes<\/a>, Ambassador\u00a0 &#8211; The SEA People.\u00a0 <\/span><\/em><em><span class=\"s1\">Greg spent 2 weeks aboard the Galaxea with us and documented his experience in his daily entries into &#8216;The SEA People Diaries&#8217;.<br \/><\/span><\/em><span class=\"s1\"><br \/><strong>Day Seven &#8211; <a href=\"https:\/\/theseapeople.org\/2024\/07\/15\/day-seven-the-sea-people-diaries-by-greg-johannes\/\">Read here<\/a><\/strong><br \/><strong>Day Six &#8211; <a href=\"https:\/\/theseapeople.org\/2024\/07\/14\/day-six-the-sea-people-diaries-by-greg-johannes\/\">Read here<\/a><\/strong><\/span><em><span class=\"s1\"><br \/><\/span><\/em><strong><em><span class=\"s1\"><\/span><\/em><\/strong><\/span><strong>Day Five &#8211; <a href=\"https:\/\/theseapeople.org\/2024\/07\/13\/day-five-the-sea-people-diaries-by-greg-johannes\/\">Read here\u00a0<\/a><br \/>Day Four &#8211; <a href=\"https:\/\/theseapeople.org\/2024\/07\/12\/day-four-the-sea-people-diaries-by-greg-johannes\/\">Read here<\/a><br \/><\/strong><strong>Day Three &#8211; <a href=\"https:\/\/theseapeople.org\/2024\/07\/11\/day-three-the-sea-people-diaries-by-greg-johannes\/\">Read here<\/a><br \/><\/strong><span><strong>Day One and Two &#8211; <a href=\"https:\/\/theseapeople.org\/2024\/07\/10\/day-one-and-two-the-sea-people-diaries-by-greg-johannes\/\">Read here<\/a><br \/><\/strong><\/span><span><strong>Day Zero &#8211; <a href=\"https:\/\/theseapeople.org\/2024\/07\/09\/day-zero-the-sea-people-diaries-by-greg-johannes\/\">Read here<br \/><\/a><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The tourism privilege (and paradox), birds of paradise, sailfin iguana&#8230; and a sea snake in the engine.The \u2018blue river\u2019 draws its source from the rains that run through the limestone cliffs in the jungle.
