Shore-access Bunaken wall dive with sharks, turtles, and strong macro life.
Shore-access Bunaken wall dive with sharks, turtles, and strong macro life.
Shore access is possible, but the park is best dived with a local guide who knows the wall and currents.
Likuan 3 is a shore-access wall dive in Bunaken National Park, with a steep coral wall, a sandy slope, and a reputation for sharks, turtles, barracudas, manta rays, and strong macro life. It is the kind of site that rewards clear-water wall diving and steady situational awareness more than big open-water drama. It is also one of Bunaken's signature wall dives, so planning and buoyancy matter.
