Thalassa Dive & Wellbeing resort - Manado -

The new resort of Thalassa is a 5-minute drive from the 5* diving school, on the edge of the Bunaken National Marine Park. It has 4 bungalows and 2 villas with 2 bedrooms each. The resort is located in a beautiful wooded area and has a swimming pool and a restaurant serving Indonesian and Western cuisine. Thalassa's pizzas are world famous among divers...

All rooms have air conditioning, private bathrooms with hot water and a private terrace.

And not without reason, it is one of the richest and varied underwater areas in the world. Specialists indicate that in Bunaken National Park alone, more than 58 different species of coral can be found and about 2000 different fish! And that number only grows when we involve the areas around Bangka and Lembeh! It goes without saying that we organise trips to all these dive sites. It is not for nothing that the waters around Indonesia are called the breeding ground of the sea! North Sulawesi is part of the island where three large water areas come together, the Pacific, Celebes Sea and the Indian ocean. Together they form a gigantic food source. The tide and the varied underwater landscape contribute to the richness of this area. The sea around North Sulawesi consists of approximately 5 different areas, which together offer more than 150 different dive sites. The enormous area offers enough challenge for every diver. From beginner to advanced diver, from macro photographer to drift diver!

The tidal current in our area is approximately 2.2 meters. So most dives are drift dives. The water temperature is between 26 and 29 degrees Celsius. Watch out, because of the refreshing water you sometimes do not notice how strong the sun is, only when it is too late. Most divers wear a 3 mm shorty or suit to protect themselves.
