In the morning after soaking up the beautiful view, you can stroll down the path through the beautiful tropical plants to the dining and poolside area, to take breakfast before the day's adventure begins. The centre of the resort lies in a sheltered bay where you can dine with good service on the verandah, take a dip in the pool and make use of the well organised dive centre.
The resort is only a few minutes from the amazing Lembeh Strait diving sites and the diving is run by Murex - pioneers of north Sulawesi diving. You can visit all the nearby sites within a few minutes speedboat ride and guests seem never to tire of the house reef where, at dusk, countless mating mandarinfish obligingly pop up into view to delight the spellbound onlookers.
