Bunaken Oasis Dive Resort

Bunaken Island, Indonesia

Paradise from sea to door. Bunaken Oasis redefines diving in Bunaken. Positioned very much at the luxury end of the spectrum, their aim is to provide a 5-star luxury diving experience whilst keeping their ecological footprint to a minimum.

With easy access to over 90 superb dive sites, the variety of diving Bunaken offers is amazing: vertical walls with the sea bed 1500 metres beneath your fins, gentle walls with sandy bottoms, stunning reef tops, and muck diving on the mainland. Bunaken has it all. But what happens beneath the waves is only one part of the diving experience. At Bunaken Oasis they firmly believe that every aspect of the diving experience should reflect their focus on luxury.
