Arrived in Manado, we spent the night in the Novotel. The Novotel is a bit outdated. But very close to the airport. All the more pleasant was the welcome and the stay at Nabucco's Spice Island Resort. Everything was just right here. Great dive sites, especially the house reef, with lots of fish. Here you can find everything, big fish and also everything small is always present. Of course who wants a lot of fish, must also live with current. But the base leader Kurt and his guides have always found the right mix. Before and after the diving we were spoiled very sweetly with treats from the kitchen. There was fresh homemade bread (where else can you find that in this region) and many variations of fish, chicken and especially vegetables. On the last day, two pilot whales passed by our bungalow, heart what more do you want. If you don't want to look for the Halmahera walking shark during a night dive, we recommend an evening walk on the jetty of the resort. We saw him there several times. We would love to come back again but at 70 years old, health has to play a part. Thank you Kurt and his team, it was a great time with you.
Best regards
