Manado is an exceptionally fascinating diving site that offers endless variety of diving programs. The dive site is incredibly diverse with sightings that includes flat reefs and dramatic drop-offs for divers to challenge their skills. The site also has options for divers interested in wreck dives and night dives.

The water temperature constantly hovers around 30 Celsius (84 Fahrenheit) all year round, making this location a suitable diving location for anytime of the year. This site is only disturbed by the occasional monsoon squall, in which case diving activities can be diverted to the opposite coast on Lembeh Island. Coral reef formations in this site begin with a flat reefs found at 3 meters deep and gradually slopes down to form gorgeous underwater alleys that eventually drop-off vertically hundreds of meters below.
