The two main islands Bangka and Talise or Talisei at the most northern tip of Sulawesi is often seen as a paradise in between two giants. Many tourists choose to go to the better known Bunaken National Park or the Lembeh Strait, both also reached in an hour from Manado. The gateway to Bangka is the town of Likupang and the small fishing villages Pulisan, Benteng and Ponteng. The smaller islands, all worth a visit, are Tamperong, Gangga, Tindila and Kinabohutan.
Being on the most northern tip, Bangka Island experiences extremely strong currents providing for many drift dives and hunting pelagic. Barracudas, tuna, mackerel and jacks all hunt for smaller tropical reef fish that adorn the brilliant examples of hard and soft corals. You can find them in the brightest shades of red, orange, yellow and green.

Did you ever want to get away from it all? Leave the rest of the world behind you?If you can do without aircon and luxury, then certainly Pulisan Jungle Beach Resort is the place for you to go.Our eight beach bungalows built in traditional Minahasa wood cottage style nestle in below high cliffs on the top end of a 1.5 km white sandy beach. From your window you have a spectacular view to Mt. Tangkoko National Park and Lembeh Strait. No one will disturb your privacy here as the nearest village and road are 15 minutes away... It feels like being on a remote island.
Scuba Diving around Pulisan is still an outstanding experience not easily to be found elsewhere. You dive in groups not more than three per guide. There are more than 40 dive spots between Lembeh Strait, around the Cape Pulisan and Bangka Island. There's more than Bunaken in North Sulkawesi!
