You have found Six Degrees

Two couples running a backpackers hostel in Jakarta since 2011 had a shared dream – to escape the city, and create a sustainable eco-lodge on a beach, well off the tourist trail.

Two years ago the opportunity presented itself, and thanks to some amazing partnerships with the local community and beyond, as well as an incredible band of willing volunteers, Six Degrees Sulawesi was born.

We think it’s important for you to stick around for a while to fully experience Six Degrees Off-Grid. So there are bungalows, rooms and beds to fit any budget. All accommodation is basic but full of character, constructed by local craftsmen, and feature composting toilets and harvested-rainwater showers

From the beginning, every decision we have made has been informed by our desire to be as self-sufficient as possible, have a very low impact on the environment and a positive impact on the communities that surround us.

A few of the initiatives and features in our drive towards sustainability include:

This little peninsula in Central Sulawesi has so much to offer. We continue to discover new and exciting things to do, places to see, people to meet.

We’re still compiling a complete list of al the things to do both at Six Degrees and within reach of a day trip. So far some highlights include

• snorkeling on the reef, dugong spotting
• yoga and fitness
• trip to the traditional fishing village – meet our neighbours
• birdwatching, hiking and cycling
• cooking lessons and tasting local cuisine
• paragliding trips
• fishing trips
• National park trips
• Plus all of the lounging in hammocks and beach time you could wish for.

Finding us is half of the adventure. We’re just over an hour from Palu airport in Central Sulawesi. We can arrange airport pickup for you if you need, and airport pickup is free if you stay for 4 or more nights.

Please book in advance. It’s a long way to come to find out we’re full, and there’s nowhere else to stay for miles around.
