Scuba Diving in Alor, Indonesia

Alor is one of Indonesia’s last untouched diving frontiers and a premier scuba diving destination in eastern Indonesia. Located in the far eastern part of the archipelago, Alor offers pristine coral reefs, dramatic underwater topography, and extraordinary marine biodiversity that rival the world’s top dive locations.

World-Class Marine Life
From vibrant coral gardens and swirling schools of fish to rare macro critters and powerful pelagic species, diving in Alor delivers unforgettable encounters. Divers frequently spot hammerhead sharks, mola mola, reef sharks, turtles, and countless nudibranchs and shrimp species — often on the same trip.

Unspoiled Coral Reefs
Alor is famous for hosting some of the healthiest coral reefs in Indonesia. Fueled by nutrient-rich currents flowing between the Banda and Savu Seas, the region’s marine ecosystem flourishes in spectacular color, attracting both large ocean wanderers and rare small creatures.

Something for Every Type of Diver
Whether you’re an experienced diver seeking thrilling drift dives or an underwater photographer searching for unique macro subjects, Alor diving trips cater to every style — from wide-angle reef scenes to critter-focused muck dives.

Crystal-Clear Visibility
With underwater visibility often reaching 30 meters or more, scuba diving in Alor feels like entering a true underwater paradise, perfect for photography and exploration.

Cultural Experiences Above Water
A trip to Alor is more than just diving. On land, visitors discover traditional island villages, warm local hospitality, and a slower-paced way of life that offers insight into authentic Indonesian culture.
