It is an uninhabited island ~30-40min from Makassar by boat. You can rent one for the entire day (Rp500-750K). It amazed me where you have crystal clear water so closed to a major port like Makassar. Most of the corals are concentrated about 100m, on the northwest side of the island. Ask the boat to take you close to the edge of the cliff where the water was only 3m deep and you will be surrounded by hundreds of colorful fishes. No scuba dive needed. Happy snorkeling!
