Just a short speedboat ride away from neighbouring Ternate, Tidore provides a more relaxed, sleepy atmosphere. Explore the Fort of Torre, built by the Spanish in the 17th century, commanding views over tropical plants, the south of the island and out to the ocean. Gain a glimpse into local life wandering through the coloured villages sitting high up on the island’s volcano where you’ll find spices drying in the streets and friendly faces. To end your day in Tidore, there are many inviting swimming spots to take a dip in or relax by the ocean.
