Halmahera, Indonesia is situated exactly between Lembeh Strait and the Raja Ampat islands – right in the heart of the Coral Triangle! Located between the diving meccas of Manado and Raja Ampat, Halmahera has the potential to be yet another amazing Indonesian scuba diving destination. Halmahera’s pristine beauty, both above the water and below the water, is truly unrivalled. Its remote location and lack of infrastructure have inhibited the growth of tourism.
Topographically and geographically Halmahera is an amazing group of islands with huge biodiversity of not only fish life but geologically, this also means that dive site types here are very diverse too. Halmahera offers unspoiled and uncrowded dive sites.The Northern Halmahera district area is also an emerging diving destination. Morotai Island, lying to the north of Halmahera, was a hive of activity during World War II, serving as an air-base for both the Allies and the Japanese. The ghosts of war still linger in this area, where wrecks of aircrafts can be found underwater providing a home to coral reefs and many diverse marine creatures.
Halmahera is situated exactly between Lembeh Strait and the Raja Ampat islands, located right in the centre of the Coral Triangle and those that dive here think it is their best diving ever! With easy diving along steep drop offs to lovely shallow coral gardens, dive the untouched reefs of Halmahera, and you will see everything from pygmy seahorses, turtles, giant groupers, sharks to schooling fish; caverns and schools of fish, coral covered slopes, perfect shallow reef tops, bays with seahorses and other critters, pinnacles, reefs, and uninhabited islands!
The coral experts have already recorded 450 species, which is more than half of the corals in the world (56 percent) and 75 percent of all the corals ever recorded around Halmahera alone! And this was done in a brief survey, not an extensive one. The fish experts have also recorded almost 700 species (686 including two new species), which is 12 percent of the world’s total and 31 percent of the number ever recorded.
This matches or beats all but the most famous dive sites in the world – nearby Raja Ampat and the Komodo National Park. Diving Halmahera is certain to be a unique and exhilarating experience!
