Meet the Bunaken dolphins in a water! ! Manado diving first stop!
The only thing you have to do at the beach is diving. This time it is recommended to take a diving spot, Bunaken Island, which can be reached by boat from Manado. It is said to be called the island where divers must punch. Diving point.
Why do you say that this is a place to punch in? I think it is because the scenery here has not been destroyed. Every time I dive here, I can meet the turtle once and interact with the "mermaid". .
If you come here to dive, I personally suggest that you can set your accommodation at Manado. There are a lot of resorts to choose from, because the facilities on the island feel very perfect, if you say the shortcomings, There is really nothing to eat except seafood.
Go to Bunaken, you can go back and forth in one day. We are going to take a boat at the pier at about 9:00 in the morning and return at around 3 pm. Of course, this means that if you have a diving certificate, you can go straight. Diving arrangements, and there is no diving card here! ~
By the way, the diving certificate here takes about 3 days. If you are going to test OW, you must contact the dive shop in advance so that you can leave a lot of unnecessary trouble. But personally, this is a paradise for divers. If you don't have a diving certificate, don't plan to travel to the island for a while, you can't dive, you can't interact.
The last important reason for punching Bunaken is that if you are lucky enough to meet the whales~~A lot of people are proud of this, as to whether they can meet, and they will stay beautiful after meeting. Photo? Then you can only watch your luck.
Finally, attach my underwater world, just drop me here, let me lie on this riverbed and enjoy the scenery, I don't want to go back!

Bunaken National Park
I really like bunaken because of the people, and the atmosphere here which feels very warm and welcoming. It is a beautiful sea garden, one of Indonesia's heritage which we are so proud of! It’s located in Manado, North Sulawesi, and very accessible from the city center. Visiting bunaken island when you are in Manado is a must! Heavenly beautiful coral ecosystem under the sea will definitely pleasure your eyes, mind, and soul 💙 We arranged our trip through the hotel reception where we stayed in. You can go on a group tour or book private boat it’s up to you, but if you come with around 4 - 6 people then definitely opt for a private tour because it’s much better option! 🏝💦🌤🍃 #nationalpark #urbanexplorer

Manado's underwater world is far more numerous than the earth's beauty, known as the Mecca of the diving industry. However, this time the luck was very general.

When you walk into the Five-Color Lake, you will marvel at the beautiful lakes and mountains, you can't help but marvel at this is God's overturned paint? How can there be such a colorful lake, the day we went to map out the green of different colors, if the sun is more violent, the color will be more abundant, but these colors can already be amazing.
Five-colored lake is a dammed lake after the volcanic eruption. This colorful lake water may remind you of Jiuzhaigou in China. However, the only difference between Wuzi Lake and Jiuzhaigou is that the five-color lake is a large lake with constant color change. It's like a paint dancing in the water.
Danau linow Chinese translation is a colorful lake, in fact, it is more suitable to turn into a three-color lake, because it will reflect blue, white and green in sunny days.
Colorful Lake is located in Tomohon, Indonesia, not far from the crater. As the name suggests, the colorful lake is a lake of five colors, and its formation is mainly related to the local volcanic rock geology.
Colorful Lake is a sulphur lake. Under the sunlight, the lake will have a colorful color effect. The hot day is the most likely to see a colorful picture. Many people choose to go to the colorful lake for afternoon tea after visiting the crater and the terrorist market.
Although it is close to the equator, the climate is hot and the shade of the colorful lake is very cool. In the afternoon of leisure, take a cup of coffee and enjoy the lake and mountains quietly!
Colorful Lake is a good place to take pictures. Here, you can feel at any angle.

Flight time is about 15~20 minutes, depending on the wind~
In Manado, every 100 meters can be seen in large and small churches, making a total of about 1,500 church buildings in Sulawesi, also known as "Jerusalem second." One of the Jemaat Sentrum Manados, built in the 17th century, is the earliest church building in Manado. Although it was destroyed in the Second World War, it can be accommodated for about 2000 after reconstruction. People are doing mass here, and Sunday service is also available in Dutch, including 6 am, English at 9 am, and Indonesian at 6 o'clock in the evening.
As far as the building itself is concerned, the Christ Church of the Century has a red roof that is very eye-catching. It can be seen at a glance from the whole city, and next to it is a giant cross. There is still a building under construction. The overall look and feel is bound to be better.
Meet Manado, just because of its "world's best diving place" is fascinating. Manado debuted in the C position in a dive site and was named "the crown of the world's diving sanctuary" by the five major diving institutions. It is called "Mega in the diving industry", and the Great Barrier Reef, which is familiar to the people of the country, can only be settled in the Maldives. Thereafter.
Manado, the Chinese translation called "Manado" (local custom called Manado) is commonly known as Manado. It is the capital of North Sulawesi Province, Indonesia. It is located at the northern end of Sulawesi (1 degree 29 minutes north latitude, 124 degrees 50 minutes east longitude) and is close to the west coast of Sulawesi. Manado has developed to the present day and is the second largest city in Sulawesi with a population of nearly 420,000 (2005). It has nine municipal districts surrounded by mountains and is known for its coastal beauty. Manado is also a famous diving spot in the world. There are not many people in the country who know it. I have not read the many travel tips and did not introduce Manado in detail. It feels a pity. At present, it seems that Beijing, Shanghai, and Guangzhou all have flights to Feminado. If you have a chance, you can come and play. Manado's hotel is not expensive, basically around 300-500 RMB.
