Diving in Sulawesi

Wet equatorial with regional rain shadows; spidery peninsulas, high karst and deep bays. Bunaken drift dives, Toraja limestone hikes, Togian freedive camps and Wakatobi kite-lagoon sessions headline the mix.

Overview

Diving is your way into everything that happens below the surface. For most people that means scuba: a tank, a regulator, and the strange first-time thrill of breathing underwater. From there it is reefs, wrecks, walls and marine life you will not see any other way.

It is more welcoming than its reputation. A try-dive gets a complete beginner underwater in a pool or sheltered bay in a single session, and an Open Water qualification opens up dive sites worldwide. Buoyancy is the skill to nail, and it comes from your breathing rather than your fins.

The instructors on adventuro run try-dives, certifications and guided dives for every level. Everyone underwater started as a nervous beginner blowing bubbles in the shallow end.
