Dive sites we visit may include but are not limited to:

Pantar Strait

The Pantar Strait is the second largest island in the Alor Archipelago, located 45 miles north from Timor. The area is known for both critter diving and thriving reef walls where larger pelagic species roam. Some stronger currents are to be expected, but these currents bring nutrients that feed the reef and other inhabitants of the strait; enough to support the numerous villages dotted about the islands. The dive sites in this location are very diverse and the optimum sites are chosen depending on the diving conditions on the day.

The French Man's Window - An incredible wall dive site situated in front of Alor's Divers Resort, which is covered in a vibrant array of soft corals. Look closely and you can find a wide variety of colourful nudibranchs. Swimming around, you can also spot a shark or two.

Pak Van's Village - Situated on the north of Pura Island, it is one of the most iconic sites within the Strait. It is a well-known critter hotspot, where divers can see Pegasus sea moths, dragonets, scorpion fish, ghost pipefish and Bargibanti seahorses.

Clown Valley - Hundreds, if not thousands, of anemones cover the shallow reef slope on the south side of Pulau Pure, all hosting the Clark's anemone fish. A spectacular site, but beware of some very chilly water, as there are thermoclines to be expected in these waters.

The Arch - Famous for its overhangs and fissures providing stunning topography, as well as a home to schooling fusiliers and colorful Anthias. The waters are also home to larger pelagic fish, including black tip reef sharks.

Mucky Mosque - An iconic dive nestled at the entrance of Kalabahi bay. A fantastic muck dive where the attentive eye can find Paddle-Flap & Frondosa's Rhinopias, Ornate, Robust and even Halimeda & Velvet Ghost Pipefish, Frogfish, Bobtail squids, Long-arm Octopus and sometimes even Wunderpus!

Pulau Lembata

Pulau Lembata is nestled midway between eastern Flores and Alor. The bay on the west coast of this island is home to great critter dive sites. We will spend a full day of diving and exploring some of these amazing sites:
Sizzler - This sandy slope is superb for critter dives and is a fairly unknown spot. It has proven to be a fantastic day dive, as well as a wonderful night dive. Marine life is hugely varied: from different species of frogfish to ornate ghost pipefish and majestic fingered dragonets.

The Jetty - Large currents sweep across the big ferry jetty and bring in lots of food for the underwater life. The slope and underwater structures under the jetty create a good habitat for lots of different kinds of nudibranchs, giant frogfish, ribbon eels and spiny devil fish. It's another one of these dives that you just don't want to end.

Rhino City - We will explore a very gentle sloping sandy bottom bursting with small soft corals. We will try to dive this site with slack tide, because currents can be quite challenging for this critter dive. Expect to find cuttlefish, Strapweed file fish, pipefish, and if you're lucky the illustrious Rhinopias.

Tanjung Gedong, Serbete & Adonara

Our last stop we will likely visit three extraordinary dive spots:
Tanjung Gedong - A brilliant dive site encompassing a hard-coral sloping reef wall and sandy areas dotted with coral bommies. The creatures we see here fall into the macro category with a variety of crustaceans, mollusks and benthic reef fish.

Serbete Wall - A shallow reef sloping down to a wall, which drops to approximately 30 meters. It is dotted with barrel sponges and elephant ear sponges. Along the wall there are many overhangs and crevices to explore. Bluefin trevallies can be seen hunting and batfish casually hang about. The shallow reef shows healthy corals and an abundance of smaller reef fish.

Magic Log/Adunara Reef - This reef features a shallow slope with large coral heads adorned with a myriad of feather stars which open in the nighttime to feed. It is also a fantastic spot for critter hunting with sightings of warty frogfish, ornate ghost pipefish, cuttlefish and octopus. Most of the dive is spent at a shallow 10 meters.
