Insider's View

Siladen Island is a small island with a white sandy beach next to Bunaken national Park offering some of the best diving in the world. Clear water, great soft corals and prolific fish and macro life await you! Siladen Island has beautiful, healthy corals as shallow as 2 metres deep. A wall full of life that drops down from 9 to 25 metres deep, filled with tunicates, nudibranchs, soft corals, sea fans and crinoids.

Best diving on Siladen is on the southwest side of the island. Off the north east side there is also great diving, but currents can be strong. Explore the island, it's small and you can find good diving anywhere around it.
