TOGIAN DIVING, SNORKELING

Spread over a 90 km stretch in the middle of Tomini Bay, the winding, hilly coastlines and equatorial waters of the Togean Islands cast a magical spell of green, yellow and blue, in all the shades imaginable.

Travellers endure the long journey in search of the mythical beach paradise – many stay longer than they expected. Lazy days sunbathing, beachcombing, diving and snorkelling, exploring the dense jungle interiors – the simple lifestyle can be so alluring.

Lying in the deep water basin and protected on all sides by the spidery arms of Sulawesi, and miles from anywhere, the calm and clear waters are full of marine life, and the beaches are clean and undisturbed.

Rumour has it that the Togean Islands are on the verge of being the next big hit on the travelling market, so enjoy it while you can. Let’s hope they can remain an unspoilt and unexploited for many years to come.

The Togians Climate

Lying 2° south of the equator, you’ll find the temperature here in the Togeans is a constant 30°C all year round.

Rainy season runs from December to March, but being in the tropics, the rain is only intermittent rather than torrential. Likewise dry season isn’t absolutely dry either! August is the windiest month. High Season revolves around European summer holidays in July and August.

We recommend you visit from May to December and, if you do plan on being here in July and August, just remember that accommodation is very limited so book as soon as you can.

How to Get to Togian Islands

Standing in splendid isolation in Tomini Bay, Central Sulawesi, it is quite time consuming to get to the Togean Islands. But you will be thankful you went to the effort to get there as that’s the price you pay for a remote piece of tropical paradise. After all, if it was easy to get to, there’d be more tourists and litter here, spoiling it for you!

From the Gorontalo, ferry leave 2 times a week and from Ampana there is more option since the Ferry from Gorontalo its also reach till Ampana and among other smaller boat.
