Ever
fancy yourself being a mermaid? Being able to swim along with other
creatures of the sea , moving to the rhythm of the waves? In the Bunaken
Marine Park, you will encounter a real “mermaid”, and you can also get a
glimpse of sea life here.Bunaken is an 8.08 km² island in the Bay of Manado, situated in the north of the island of Sulawesi, Indonesia. Bunaken forms part of the administrative city of Manado , capital of North Sulawesi. The marine Park around Bunaken is part of the National Park that also includes the ocean around the island of Manado Tua – or Old Manado, Siladen and Mantehage.
Within the
Bunaken Marine Park, visitors can see various strange and colourful
marine life along its sea bed. To reach this park, you can take a
motorboat. The journey from Manado takes around 40 minutes. Entrance
fee is 25,000 rupiahs per person per visit.
The translucent
waters of the Bunaken seas enable people to clearly view numerous sea
biota. There are 13 species of coral reefs in this park, dominated by
edge ridges and block ridges of rocks. The most attractive view is the
steep vertical sloppy coral reef that plunges down as deep as 25-50
meters.
