3.7K The Banggai area in Sulawesi is one of Indonesia’s most underrated places to travel, with an amazing blue lake called Paisupok and other good things to see including beaches, caves, waterfalls, and wildlife. This is a big area that includes three different regencies — Banggai, Banggai Islands, and Banggai Laut — so it’s a bit more complicated than visiting other places in Sulawesi.
