Scuba diving in Alor will give you the chance to experience multiple types of tropical diving in one location and without crowds. The diversity of our underwater sites is tremendous with a wide range of coral walls and slopes, fields of anemones and volcanic cliffs and caves. Inside the Kalabahi Bay a variety of black and white slopes make for macro muck diving sites that are interesting to both curious underwater explorers and photographers. Our local guides and photo-pro will lead you on underwater tours to get the most out of your visit and personal marine life interests.
Surface intervals can be equally exciting with the chance to encounter multiple species of dolphins, whales or snorkel with a mola-mola. Bottle nose, spinner and frasier dolphins are spotted weekly and at times joined by large pods of melon-headed whales. Blue whales can be spotted randomly at any time, with their numbers and frequency increasing during seasonal migrations . With the correct timing in the moon cycle and a bit of luck, our boat crew will take you between or after dives to have a look for mola-mola who have been brought to the surface in a cool water upwelling.

Pure Fun Diving
Our resort caters to certified divers only, so no courses are on offer. Our local guides will lead you on an underwater tour to see beautiful landscapes and find unique critters, plus keep a look-out and provide assistance while on the boat to spot passing pelagics.
If you would like to request a more specific service such as an instructor who can assist with underwater supervision of a less confident diver, a guide who can assist with photo specific objectives underwater, or private coaching from our photo-pro, please discuss this with us in advance.

Boat Diving
Guests are divided over our 2 speedboats with a maximum of 6 guests on each boat. They are split into 2 groups with different guides, so that there is a maximum 4:1 guest to guide ratio, and often less.
In the case that you are assigned to a group with divers other than those who you are traveling with, we do our best to be sure that interests and experience levels are similar.

If you are a photographer you can rinse, soak and blow dry your camera housing after dives on the outdoor camera room terrace, then enter the dry camera room and use a personal workbench for setting up and disassembling your camera, charging batteries and storing camera equipment.
