Redefining Diving

Bunaken is a diver’s paradise – located in the heart of the Coral Triangle, the marine park is internationally recognised for its rich marine biodiversity, and underwater topography.  Divers and snorkelers will be introduced to a wide variety of fish life, exceptional reef systems and coral walls, with a huge variety of colourful corals, and many, many turtles.

Supported by our fully equipped PADI 5-Star Dive Centre, specialising in recreational diving, freediving and technical diving, guests enjoy access to professional facilities and a full range of courses, ensuring a seamless diving journey within a refined, exclusive setting.

Our guided boat dives explore every corner of the Bunaken Marine National Park, with many of the 90+ dive sites just minutes from the resort. Every experience is tailored to your level and interests, whether you’re taking your first PADI course, exploring the park on recreational dives, discovering the world of freediving, advancing your technical or CCR diving skills, or enjoying the exclusivity of a private boat and guide. Night dives and blackwater dives reveal an entirely different underwater world after dark, while underwater photographers will find endless opportunities to capture everything from rare macro critters to vibrant coral reefscapes.

Watch how these massive groups of fish swim in perfect harmony above the coral reef. They use a special organ called a lateral line to feel water pressure and avoid bumping into each other. This amazing teamwork helps them navigate the busy ocean safely.

Unlike common dorid nudibranchs that carry a visible, feathery rosette of gills on their backs, Armina species have concealed gills tucked underneath the sides of their mantle skirt. This streamlined build prevents sand and sediment from damaging their delicate respiratory organs while digging.
