Almost 24 hours trip from manado to this gulf, what for?
There is rumour that this gulf owned a really great archipelago and a great barrier reef.
And i found out more about this archipelago : The largest Indonesian Marine Park, 4,4 million Ha, with 262 Corals species, almost 600 Species of Fish, 555 molusca, and more endemic species such as Dugong, Sea Turtle, pilot whale, etc..WOW..

And i think why not?
Togean archipelago offer a lot of diving site, a great landscape, a green turquoise water, and white beach. Kadidiri island seems to be best option for base camp to explore this archipelago.
There is three resort option in kadidiri (sort from the cheapest)
1. Lestari Homestay
2. Black Marlin Dive Resort
3. Kadidiri Paradise Resort

And also a lot of homestay and resort spreaded all over the islands.

Diving is also incredibble, they have a barrier reef length almost 7 km, B24 Bomber Wreck, Wall, Coral Garden, Macro site and great school of barracuda and jack fish.

This is the endless heaven.
A great escape from your routinity days, and a cheaper option than Derawan, Komodo or Raja Ampat. However the Togeans offers one of finest diving in Indonesia. 4
th below R4, Derawan, Bunaken.
You can visit this archipelago from Gorontalo (ferry leaves tuesday and friday night) or Ampana (daily ferry).
Beware Dangerously Beautiful Indonesia.
