Snorkeling at the world's famous marine park
location: Bunaken Island, Manado, Sulawesi
we snorkelled at one of the world's famous marine park with over 3000 species and 300 corals waiting to be seen and explored.
we did not plan on snorkeling actually because our initial plan was just to go to the beach and swim but since it was low tide when we arrived, we just went for snorkeling! Even if we're not ready, diving stalls at Bunaken island are geared with wet suits, paddles, dive fins and snorkels which you can rent at reasonable prices. The rent also comes with underwater pictures of you and Nemo!(if you're luck to find him!)
How do you get to Bunaken island?
The island of Bunaken is easily reached from Manado by motorized.Because we were a huge group, we rented out the entire boat. Ferries from Manado to Bunaken leave daily around 02:00 PM.
Pare-pare city
I live in Cilegon with my family. We went to Bandung on last School holiday with my parents, brother and sister. We took our car and drove there. I booked a hotel with three rooms. We planned to travel around Bandung to different tourism attractions. We went shopping in malls, sightseeing at parks, lakes and other interesting places.
We spend three days from Friday to Sunday. The weather was nice and we had a lot of fun. I enjoyed the nice traditional food and drinks. I bought several snacks from Bandung and took many pictures there. We went home in the afternoon with great feeling.

Novotel Manado Golf Resort & Conventio Center
The best hotel I’ve ever been privileged enough to stay at. Gorgeous building, and it only gets more breathtaking when you walk in. High quality rooms (there was even a tv by the shower), and high quality service. Also, they are one of few hotels that allow people under 21 to book a reservation.
Overall, I had a great experience with the Novotel Manado; staff was incredibly helpful, and the amenities were great. The room was wonderful, clean, and perfect to celebrate a birthday weekend.
I have stayed at dozen of hotels in Manado. This was on the top of the list of best stays/experiences ever. Staff was very hospitable and there for every need of mine. Thank you so much.

Meet the Bunaken dolphins in a water! ! Manado diving first stop!
The only thing you have to do at the beach is diving. This time it is recommended to take a diving spot, Bunaken Island, which can be reached by boat from Manado. It is said to be called the island where divers must punch. Diving point.
Why do you say that this is a place to punch in? I think it is because the scenery here has not been destroyed. Every time I dive here, I can meet the turtle once and interact with the "mermaid". .
If you come here to dive, I personally suggest that you can set your accommodation at Manado. There are a lot of resorts to choose from, because the facilities on the island feel very perfect, if you say the shortcomings, There is really nothing to eat except seafood.
Go to Bunaken, you can go back and forth in one day. We are going to take a boat at the pier at about 9:00 in the morning and return at around 3 pm. Of course, this means that if you have a diving certificate, you can go straight. Diving arrangements, and there is no diving card here! ~
By the way, the diving certificate here takes about 3 days. If you are going to test OW, you must contact the dive shop in advance so that you can leave a lot of unnecessary trouble. But personally, this is a paradise for divers. If you don't have a diving certificate, don't plan to travel to the island for a while, you can't dive, you can't interact.
The last important reason for punching Bunaken is that if you are lucky enough to meet the whales~~A lot of people are proud of this, as to whether they can meet, and they will stay beautiful after meeting. Photo? Then you can only watch your luck.
Finally, attach my underwater world, just drop me here, let me lie on this riverbed and enjoy the scenery, I don't want to go back!
