Why dive here
With 238+ marine species recorded in the area - including blacktip reef sharks, giant moray eels, pygmy seahorses, seahorses and sperm whales - Manado concrete reef offers some of Sulawesi's richest reef diving. Water ranges 29-31°C, warmest June, October, November.
Manado's concrete reef offers an interesting contrast to the natural walls nearby. It’s a rubble patch that divers often overlook, but we've found it surprisingly busy with macro critters. Look closely among the broken corals and you'll spot nudibranchs, pipefish, and small octopus. It’s a good choice for photographers wanting to slow down and find some unique subjects away from the main currents.
