Not much I can tell that this is the most beautiful island and white sands that i’ve ever visited. Lihaga is an empty island without inhabittant. Only some people nearby regularly coming to clean and maintain this island.
Lihaga Island
Lihaga Island is located at Likupang, North Minahasa regency and it’s in North Sulawesi province in Indonesia. Likupang is about 1 hour from Samratulangi International Airport, Manado. And to cross from Likupang to the island, it will need about 40 minutes depends on the motor boat being used.

We started the trip by 6 a.m. from Tondano because I live there and went to Tomohon to pick up some friends there. Continue the trip to Manado and from there directly heading to Likupang and arrived about 9 am. Actually from Tondano only spend about 2hr trip.
Tondano early morning
Arrived in Likupang, the tour guy picked up us at the harbour terminal. The other group from Italy already arrived earlier and waiting for us to go together using the same motor boat.

Before we went off to Lihaga, on the boat the tour guy start the speech by a pray with all of the groups. It was nice because we start it by praying. Since all are Christian, including the all of us because we are minahasan, so we pray the God’s prayer.
on the motor boat
Since it’s still in the morning, the sea is so calm. I like it. Near the island, we could see the coral inside. Such a nice view.

From the island we could see the mountains in the sulawesi island. The dark blue sea and the light blue see that create a beautiful contrast. Another neighbour island which is Gangga Island. Take a look. it is a resort where the visitors can stay there. Please google it. It has a beautiful scenary also.
