Sulawesi is one of the Greater Sunda Islands and covers slightly more than half the area of Germany. The Indonesian island is located between Kalimantan to the west and the Moluccas to the east. Selayar Island is an archipelago and part of South Sulawesi Province. It lies in the Flores Sea, separated from Sulawesi by the Selayar Strait. The entire eastern side of the island, where the resort is located, is surrounded by a fringing reef. Through persistent efforts, we have succeeded in placing one of the world’s last paradises—where humans have left hardly any traces— under nature conservation. In cooperation with the Indonesian government, a marine park was established, making diving a truly unique experience. The fringing reef consists mainly of steep walls and is dotted with overhangs and small caves, and an underwater mountain lies a short distance from the resort. Even before the marine park was established, Selayar’s unique abundance of fish was something special; since the reefs were placed under protection in 2000, word has apparently spread among the marine life. Breathtaking coral growth—soft corals on the steep walls and hard corals on the reef top—is impressive for every diver. The Selayar Dive Resort, with its private beach, was conceived, designed, and built in-house. The top priority was to incorporate the uniqueness of nature into the design and to embed the resort within the idyllic setting of the 1-kilometer-long white-sand beach on which the Selayar Dive Resort is located. The goal was to preserve nature and make the most of its existing beauty—and that is exactly what we achieved. No noisy roads running past the resort, just harmony and balance with nature. Come join us for a relaxing getaway!
