Dive Bunaken Marine Park from a Luxury Resort
Kima Bajo Resort and Spa - Nestled amongst undulating coconut grooves overlooking the tranquil Wori Bay, and just minutes away from North Sulawesi's Bunaken National Park, Kima Bajo is a small upscale boutique resort which offers romance, luxury and every comfort a traveler could wish for. Your choice of accommodation includes 19 villas, each with a sunken outdoor bath and shower, one Grand Villa with its own private pool, and 12 spacious Long-House rooms. Each room is provided with en-suite bathroom, air conditioning, safety deposit box, mini bar and TV.
Easy Access via Jet to Manado - Kima Bajo is conveniently located just 25 minutes from Manado's international airport, which is served by award-winning Singapore Airlines. At Kima Bajo Resort divers can expect world class dive and snorkel experiences while non divers take part in soft adventures and unique cultural experiences available in the surrounding Minahasa Highlands. Everyone gets to relax around the pool with beautiful views of Bunaken Island and Manado Tua volcano, and breathtaking sunsets over the Sea of Sulawesi.
Bunaken Marine Park Diving - Manado is an exotic year-round dive holiday destination and an area of outstanding natural beauty. The lush coconut palms, sandy beaches and pristine reefs of the Bunaken National Park are set against a magnificent backdrop of volcanoes and teeming rainforests. North Sulawesi offers so many diving delights, including the famous and intriguing Lembeh Strait, home to scores of rare camouflaged critters. Said to be the epicentre for marine life, there are more species to be found here than anywhere else on the planet, with new discoveries being made every day. The daily dive program to Bunaken National Park offers a two-tank morning trip and one-tank afternoon trip. The morning trip departs at 8:15 am and the boats return at around 1 pm, so guests can enjoy lunch at Kima Bajo Resort. The afternoon trip departs at 3 pm and returns by around 4:30-5:00 pm. Night dives, special trips to Lembeh Strait and PADI dive courses can be arranged on request.
Eco Divers In-House - Based at Kima Bajo Resort & Spa, Eco Divers is a PADI 5 Star Center. Managers Luca Vaime (Italian) & Miho Takeda (Japanese) have already managed an upscale dive operation in North Sulawesi since 2005, so they know every bit of the Bunaken National Park. The three new purpose-built boats are constructed in a traditional Indonesian design, and powered by energy efficient double outboard engines. The dive boats' comfort features include sundeck, camera rinse tanks, an environmentally-friendly toilet, and a shaded salon area. They take divers to over 30 dive sites with speed and comfort, each carrying a maximum of just 8 guest divers, plus two dive guides. The average ride from resort to dive site is just 10-15 minutes. Snorkellers and non-divers are also welcome to join the trips. Dive groups are kept very small - just 4 guests to each guide. Back at the jetty, a convenient camera storage facility with individual lockers is available for the guests’ use.
