North Sulawesi

We’ve carefully handpicked the finest resorts and operators in North Sulawesi so you can cover the scope of the regions diving, from the dramatic walls of Bunaken to the shores of the Lembeh Straits.

There’s a good reason for the buzz created around North Sulawesi when it comes to diving, this is pretty much where scientists believe life in the ocean began and it surely rings true when you first descend on the incredibly rich reefs of Bunaken Island or begin to discover some of the weird and wonderful marine life that can be found on the black sand slopes of Lembeh.

This is all topped off by stunning vistas above the surface, smouldering volcanoes, highland peaks and beautiful lakes which all give the opportunity for a different adventure each and every day. It’s all accessible without too much effort, either from a complete stay in a single resort or by choosing to see the region safari style.

We’ve been coming back to this region for many years, it’s always a joy to return and each and every time there’s something new to discover. Get in touch for the low down on where to go, how to do it and where to stay.
