An intimate and castaway-cool beach resort, snugly ensconced between the jungle and the sea just a couple of minutes from the whale shark platforms. There are six bungalows, adeptly constructed from local hardwoods, and one dreamy treehouse that juts out over the sea. Everything is included in the price: accommodation, meals, diving, snorkelling, birds-of-paradise-watching and all transport.
Rooms are fan-cooled and there is no hot water. Also, the dive gear is barely adequate and the local 'dive masters' need further training. For professional service and better equipment, contact Yulius Kapitarau of Byak Divers Papua, who accompanies groups to the resort. In addition to scuba diving with the whale sharks, there are several nearby dive sites where divers can check out coral reefs, giant clams, pygmy seahorses and a large variety of sharks.
Spotty wi-fi is available for 15,000Rp per hour.
