Paradise Lose, Bunaken Sea

Do you wanna see some kind of Heaven under the sea? If you say yes, then you’re on the right track by reading this. :D

I would like to introduce the famous Indonesia Marine Park, called Bunaken. This place is the real heaven for underwater lover, especially the one who loves diving. Bunaken area, which consists of 5 islands (Manado Tua, Bunaken, Siladen, Mantehage, and Naen) has the highest levels of marine biodiversity in the world.

The waters of Bunaken National Marine Park are extremely deep (1566 m in Manado Bay), clear up to 35-40 m visibility, refreshing in temperature (27 to 29 °C). More than 70 genera of corals (Hawaii for example, only have 10), 2,700 species of fish, around 10 species of giant clams, live in this 75,265 hectares area of warm tropical water.

Scuba diving lover, will have unforgettable moment while dive in this marine park. There’re 20 main dive spots, the deepest spot is around 1344 meters under sea level. But don’t worry, if you can’t dive, you can still enjoy the beautiful of this park by snorkeling around the surface.

Remember, you’ll never see another marine park in the world that have this high level of marine biodiversity. Come to this spot, and you’ll know that it’s a real paradise.
