Advice for diving Manado in Indonesia

Site Sahaung

Located on the east coast, in front of the village of lihunu, this is a spectacular Bangka scuba diving spot among the rocks in the middle of the sea. Rows of underwater rock peaks that rise from the water to the sky add to the special features of this place. This is a drift dive that requires a negative buoyancy entry, as the waves and currents are quite strong at this point at the drop off and pick up points.

As you descend the summit, you'll marvel at the proliferation of green and golden brown soft corals, large elephant ear sponges, dense thickets of branching green cup coral and table coral. There was a carpet of frayed skin coral and soft coral trees of pink, brown, cream, and mauve swaying in the shallow waves.

At the same time, crowding around you are red-tooth triggerfish, midnight snapper, blue-striped snapper and longfin banner fish. Fish soup! If you're not blown away enough by this, the site may also include teira bat fish, pygmy seahorses, toadfish, sweetlip harlequins, palette surgery fish, and perhaps a whitefin reef shark or two to feature as guests. "Amazing" and "amazing" are words that are often used on the boat after this Bangka dive. We did this trip with the diving center from Manado, the name is Sosoro Diving Center Manado, please contact them on whatsup 08114305541
