Bajo

Bajo is a coastal town in North Maluku, Indonesia, positioned on the Molluccas (Maluku) region by the Molukka Sea. It’s a gateway point for local boat trips and small-scale diving access around nearby reefs and coastal sites. With limited local dive centers and a modest number of dive sites, diving here tends to be community-driven and best approached via day trips from nearby hubs in North Maluku or the broader Indonesian archipelago. Expect warm tropical waters, gentle currents, and typical reef-dwelling species at accessible sites, suitable for introductory and casual divers rather than large-scale dive tourism.
