| In 1993 Amanwana Based Itself, Stealing Prime Position, On The Indonesian Island Of Moyo... |
|
In 1993 Amanwana based itself, stealing prime position, on the Indonesian island of Moyo, off the coast of Sumbawa to the east of Bali. The air of camp life is skilfully incorporated into luxuriant tents, designed with style and subtlety on a coral-stone deck. The tents are sided by walls of windows framed in teak with polished hardwood flooring and dreamy soft hues such as creams, beige, wheat and honey.
This is a wilderness hideaway, secluded in a cove overlooking Amanwana Bay and the Flores Sea. Diving and snorkelling, from the jetty and the camp’s vessels, is readily accessible, proffering a spectacular array of magical, iridescent and fascinating sea life: hawksbill and giant turtles, soft red coral, barrel sponges flaying green and yellow tips, enormous blue sea stars floating over the magenta tips of hard coral all surrounded by a myriad of tropical fish. The island is inhabited by a unique mix of jungle animals, from deer to wild boar to macaque monkeys, and a variety of spectacular bird life, including eagles and osprey. Walks into the wonders of Moyo’s jungle world begin at base. |

* Diving :
Amanwana provides some of the best diving in the Indonesian archipelago and some of the top sites are less than 10 minutes away by boat. With Amanwana’s own dive operation, both beginners and experienced divers can explore the Flores Sea. Non-certified divers should bring a medical certificate, signed by a physician stating they have no medical problems.
A dive instructor will guide beginners (minimum age 12 years old) through the basic theory and skills, then accompany them on a dive from the jetty along the Sea Wall. This non-certification course takes about two hours. Various PADI advanced courses are available for divers wanting to upgrade their skills and certification level. The Sea Wall, which is just in front of the jetty, is a reef wall that descends over 40m. Turtle Street is just to the right of the camp, where the coral reef drops away to a sandy slope. The most frequent visitors are hawksbill and green turtles along with moray eels, lobsters and black and white-tip reef sharks. A short boat ride away is Labuan Aji Reef which is best for wall diving. Angel reef is a small circular submerged mount that is fed by swift currents. Here one can see schools of snapper, napolean fish and reef sharks. The Medang Ribbon Reefs are untouched coral gardens while the Panjang Slope is frequented by sharks, wahoo and huge tunas.
* Snorkelling :
Snorkel from the jetty, next to the boardwalk, or take to the water from the beach in front of the tents. A variety of fish and coral life can be found in the bay off Amanwana. Night snorkelling is also a popular activity. Guided tours of the local reefs can be provided by Amanwana's beach boys.
* Spa :
The Jungle Cove Spa is just off the beach and under shady tamarind trees. Simple coral-stone walls divide the outdoor centre into three treatment areas, one double and two single rooms, each including a recessed, soaking tub and a shower. |
