Dive the Bunaken National Park with Celebes Divers Manado

Where are we?

Celebes Divers is in Indonesia. To be more specific: Manado, North Sulawesi.
North Sulawesi (Sulawesi Utara) is a province at the northeastern tip of the island of Sulawesi, the largest islands of Indonesia with the Bunaken National Marine Park right at our doorstep.

The Bunaken National Park has reached a status as one of the world's prime dive destinations.

The capital and largest city in North Sulawesi is Manado. Our Mapia Resort & Spa is located just 30 minutes by car from Manado Airport and to Onong Resort it takes only 45 minutes by boat from Mapia Resort.

Go to our interactive map to find our resorts and Manado airport. There are also interactive maps where you can find all the dive sites along the Manado coast, Siladen Island and Bunaken Island.

What's the weather like?

North Sulawesi is only 150 kilometers away from the equator so the weather is more or less the same in all seasons. Officially there is a "dry" and a "rain" season but there is almost no difference between these two.

The temperature in daytime is (normally) 26 -32 degrees Celcius all year around and every other day there is some rain, but mostly not more than 30 minutes. During the nights it cools off to a pleasant 25 - 27 degrees Celcius.

The sea water is always a cozy 28-30 degrees Celcius all year around.

Thank you for the great time we had with you. We stayed one week in both Resorts. The diving on both locations was amazing, Sharon loved the diving from Mapia Resort and says it is better than Lembeh! Also the organisation of our excursions were on the spot. We will be back! - Sharon and Tim Longwood
