    They didn't entirely close all the points in the national park. Just a few points in each park are closed. Tourist still can enjoy diving and snorkeling in the above national parks. Here's the map (sorry it's in Thai). Only the places marked in red are closed.

    The Bunaken National Marine Park was formally established in 1991 and is among the primary of Indonesia's growing system of marine parks. The park covers a complete extent of eighty nine,065 hectares, ninety seven of that is overlain by sparkling clear, heat tropical water. The remaining third of the park is terrestrial, together with the 5 islands of Bunaken, Manado Tua, Mantehage, Nain and Siladen. though every of those islands features a special character, it's the aquatic scheme that draws most naturalists.
