The fifty-kilometre highway running east across the peninsula from
Manado to Bitung is covered by frequent minibuses from Terminal Paal Dua.
These wind up at Terminal Mapalus , from where a microlet will carry you
the final 5km into BITUNG . The Pelni port is on Jalan Jakarta, with
departures on KM Ciremai, KM Kambuna, KM Tilongkabila and KM Umsini down
Sulawesi's east coast to Makassar and Kadidiri, and further afield to
Java, Kalimantan, Maluku, Irian and the Philippines . Organize tickets
and timetables either in Manado or try the Pandu Express office here at
Jl Sukarno 5 (tel 0438/30480).
There are a handful of places to eat on Jalan Sudarso - the Remaja Jaya
is a pricey Chinese place serving big portions - but Bitung's
accommodation is pretty dire and new arrivals should catch a microlet
from Jalan Sukarno back to Terminal Mapalus, where minibuses to Manado
await.
