4.5Kepulauan Togean Nasional Park(73 reviews) - please support the marine national park National Parks • Nature & Wildlife Areas
Kepulauan togean are so beautiful over and underwater. It's a long and not so easy way to get there but absolutely worth the effort. The government has just established patrols to protect the reefs and stop dynamite fishing. Education and information on ecosystem and environment is supported and action starts to somehow deal with the rubbish problem. Your 150.000RP entrance fee is the best chance for you to support the ongoing efforts so please be sure to register and pay :-)See more..

It's never easy to reach paradise, if time is your biggest concern there is flight available from Makasar to Selayar (45 min) and still you need to have boat ride for around 4 hours, it never hurt if you want to use alternative transportation mixed between bus, ferry and boat ride with total of 14 hours, you will have different and unique view along the way and plus it allow you to stop to try local cusine. Taka bonerate is a small island in National park complex, eventhough you surrounded by clean and healthy ocean environment, you're not allow to fishing here and the rangers is really firm with their job, yet you will forget about fishing since tons of activities waiting you here. You will have shore full with baby sharks to play with, use your snorkeling gear and visit the giant clams village in their jetty area, leave your sandal and walk barefoot around the island to feel the soft sand in your feet, queched your thirst with fresh coconut water, prerape your camera for the breathtaking sunset/sunrise, during the night sleep outside under the stars, it's time to reconnect with your self and the best part is no mobile reception in this island. Diving is also must to do here, don't worry about the safety, your dive master is the ranger that dive everyday to do coral check, they're really capable,expereinced diver and know the dive spot very well. The rangers is the most friendly people on earth, they love to sit and chat with you for hours! soon you forget that you're a stanger in this small paradise. Although the accomodation is very basic with limited fresh water, I enjoyed my 4 days stay here and would love to go back againSee more..

The Rawa Aopa Watumohai National Park is one of Indonesia's huge national park. It is located at the South East Sulawesi province, island of Sulawesi. It is a huge savanna to conserve the indigenous wildlife of the Wallacean Line. The island of Sulawesi is a unique island by itself and Wallace wrote in his science journal about the similarity of wildlife found in Sulawesi with those in Australia. He then draw a line to explain the similarities, called the Wallacean line. The fauna specific to this national park includes the anoa, boar, black monkey and deer. Access to this location is relatively easy. Fly to Kendari city, then go to the park's representative office in that city to ask for assistance in visiting. They will recommend where to rent a car and provide guide for the visit. Traveling time is about 5 hours from Kendari city, so most likely you will need to stay overnight. There are rooms available for rent at the guest house operated by the national park. To explore the park in full a 4x4 vehicle is required, or dirtbike. Three days and two nights stay would be nice. Be ready for the mosquito attack, bring sufficient mosquito repellent. Shopping for supplies are easy, there is a nearby village with shops selling daily needs.See more..
