About this site
Benny's Point lies off Manadotua island in the Bunaken Kepulauan area of North Sulawesi, part of the marine park that also includes Bunaken and Manado Tua. This stretch of the Sulawesi coast is known for its steep volcanic island topography dropping into the Bunaken Strait, with dive operators typically running boats out from Manado town.
