NORTH SULAWESI INFORMATION PAGESManado - Bunaken - Tangkoko - Minahasa - Sangihe/Talaud - Gorontalo - TogiansTraveling from North Sulawesi to the PhilippinesManado's airport and its overseas harbour Bitung are official entry and exit points to Indonesia, so no visa problems leaving or entering either by plane or by ship.Currently (April 2010) there are no flights from Davao to Manado anymore! There are cargo vessels going from Bitung to General Santos/Southern Philippines but there is no fixed schedule. Better take the plane which takes you directly to Davao. Moreover General Santos has not exactly a good reputation. IMPORTANT: "Island hopping" to the Philippines via the Sangihe Talaud Islands is NOT possible for Non-Indonsians! Don't even bother trying, even if someone tells you differently. After a trip of several days you will end up just a few km's from the Philippine border but not be able to enter. Instead you will be sent back all the way to Manado! |
