Banggai Islands Regency, Island archipelago regency in Central Sulawesi, Indonesia

The Banggai Islands Regency spans across multiple islands with Peleng as the main landmass, surrounded by the Banda Sea and Molucca Sea waters.

The administrative region formed on October 4, 1999, when authorities divided the original Banggai Regency into two separate territories with Salakan as its capital.

Each district within the Banggai Islands maintains distinct traditions through local governance systems called kecamatan, preserving community structures across the archipelago.

Visitors reach the islands through Merpati Nusantara Airlines flights from Palu to Luwuk, followed by boat transfers to different island destinations.

The waters around Banggai Islands house an endemic species of cardinalfish, which exists naturally only within this specific geographic region.
