The Wakatobi is a Marine National Park comprising an archipelago of four large islands located in south east Sulawesi, Indonesia. The Wakatobi, at 1.39 million hectares is the second largest marine protected area in Indonesia. The park encompasses stunning coral reefs, white sand beaches and an amazing wealth of whales and dolphins. Positioned at the heart of the Indo Pacific area where marine biodiversity is at its greatest, diving is truly fantastic.
Over 90,000 people live within the national park, many of whom rely on the reefs and inter-tidal habitats for their livelihoods. These peoples include many interesting cultures and histories. The objective of the marine park management is to balance the needs of the local communities whilst protecting biodiversity.Full information about visiting Wakatobi and accomodation found at this web site @Copyright 2007 Richard Unsworth dedicated as independent source of information for tourists, conservationists, NGO's and anyone keen to visit this beautiful place Wakatobi.
