We recently spent a few days in Muna, an island in Sulawesi that has some great caves, lakes, and natural sinkholes.
Most people visit Muna in conjunction with Buton, its neighboring island. They’re well connected by a short ferry ride, so it’s easy to go back and forth between the two islands.
The blue water sinkholes in Muna are kind of like the cenotes in Mexico, except without the crowds. There’s even a lagoon where you can swim with thousands of stingless jellyfish!
Another thing you can see in Muna is the prehistoric cave art, which is currently the oldest known human art in the world. It’s exceptional.
This travel guide will explain how to get to Muna, where to stay, and what to see and do on the island!
