Coral Eye
Coral Eye is a small, friendly lodge on Bangka Island in North Sulawesi, Indonesia. Originally founded as an outpost for marine studies, it has evolved into a welcoming hub for passionate travellers, dive enthusiasts, underwater photographers, and marine biologists. Today, it offers relaxed accommodation right by the beach, with good food, comfortable rooms, and a peaceful atmosphere.
It’s a great base for diving and snorkelling, with easy access to colourful reefs and daily guided boat trips. Even if you’re not diving, the setting is ideal for unwinding—complete with hammocks and quiet spots to soak in the views and sea breeze.

Area Specialist
Diving at Coral Eye is possible year-round, but for the best conditions, plan your trip between April and November. Expect warm waters around 28–30°C and excellent visibility up to 30 metres in summer — though winter rains and waves can reduce clarity.

Everyone involved in helping plan or execute this trip did a great job. Everything went according to plan and there was no downtime or confusion the entire time. All transfers, flights, meals, lodges, guides, Reef and Rainforest staff – everyone did a fantastic job. I am so grateful to you all for bending over backwards to make sure my vacation was top notch. I am lucky and I try to be humble. It’s hard to remember how lucky you are when everything works. So, hats off to you all. I had a great crew of people working to make my trip special, and it certainly was. Thank you.
