Sangalaki Island

Reviewed By Banglabarry - Surabaya, Indonesia

I went to see the mantas from maratua island, we didn’t see any that day. But the snorkeling around the island was great. The huge turtles were also worth the trip. They do have a turtle hatchery on the island and that’s fantastic. I love that kind of stuff. I don’t care if you have seen them before in the Caribbean or Maldives come here see them if for the fact you will be contributing to the natural environment there.

Maratua Island

Reviewed By gerrys730 - Amsterdam, The Netherlands

Amazing spot in the North of Kalimantan. Such healthy marine life, every time snorkeling or diving we saw plenty of different sea turtles, countless species of fish, coral gardens and even rays and manta rays off Sangalaki. Friendly people, lots of stuff to discover all over the island. Most lonely white beaches you can imagine. Not at all crowded (yet). Stay as long as you can. It will be hard to leave. :-)
