Diving in North Sulawesi with a Difference

"An exceptionally welcoming place…"

…where guests leave as friends!

Experience amazing diving and snorkeling in North Sulawesi: dive at the Bunaken National Marine Park with its stunning coral walls, hunt for critters at the Lembeh Strait or navigate the pinnacles at Bangka. All diving areas are easily accessible from our two friendly resorts. Far from any mass tourism, in the middle of the Indo-Pacific Coral Triangle, this is where you discover some of the highest biodiversity in the world.

Two resorts, one experience

We operate two cozy resorts: one near Manado and the other on the island of Lembeh. This way we can offer the full spectrum of North Sulawesi’s world-renowned scuba diving and snorkeling.

Diving in North Sulawesi

Indonesia’s North Sulawesi, at the heart of the Coral Triangle is a world-class diving destination. This is why diving in Bunaken, Manado and Lembeh remains high on many divers’ bucket lists.

Member of the North Sulawesi Watersports Association

We are a member of the NSWA, a collective of 20 resorts in North Sulawesi. Its mission is to promote sustainable diving, protect dive sites and co-operate with local communities. For instance: boats are not allowed to anchor at the coral reefs and dynamite fishing is a thing of the past. When you dive with an NSWA member, you dive responsibly.
