Bangka Archipelago

Dive surrounded by large schools of fish among stunning topography

Just off the northern coast of North Sulawesi, Bangka and surrounding islands are home to spectacular reefs and pinnacles. Currents often attract larger fish such as barracuda, reef sharks and tuna.

Bangka is one of our special day trips. A boat ride of about 90 minutes takes you along the western flank of North Sulawesi, with its green hills slowly rolling by on the horizon.
