Unusually, visitors can explore an entire spectrum of different dive sites - from colourful reefs packed with marine life and current swept pinnacles with big pelagic species, to sheltered bays with amazing muck diving - all in a single day. Throw in the occasional eagle ray, reef sharks and sea snakes, the possibility of encountering hammerhead sharks, thresher sharks and even mola mola and whales, and you can understand why Alor and the sites of the Pantar Strait are considered to be amongst the best in Indonesia.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Some of the classic reef sites include the Great Wall of Pantar, Cathedral, Max’s Point, Current Alley and Apuri, or Clown Valley. These sites offer beautiful drift dives along dramatic walls or over fields of colourful corals and anemones, as well schools of fish and even plenty of smaller species such as pygmy seahorses, leaf scorpionfish and frogfish. At sites exposed to the strong currents, divers can expect schools of jackfish and barracuda, tuna and rainbow runners, and - if the conditions are right  - hammerheads, thresher sharks and even mola mola. In fact, along with sites in the Banda Sea, Alor is one of the few places left in Indonesia where visitors have a reasonable chance of sighting hammerheads during the cold water periods.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Ch3>Muck diving in Alor\u003C\u002Fh3>\n\u003Cp>As well as its spectacular reefs, Alor is building a reputation as a world-class muck diving destination - particularly amongst divers that would like to get away from the crowds. Most of the reef sites have a fantastic diversity of life, but it is the proper ‘muck’ sites in Kalabahi Bay on Alor, and Beangabang Bay on Pantar, that attract those divers in search of unusual ‘critters’.  The currents that run through the strait push nutrient-rich, cold water into these bays, creating perfect conditions for critters. Rhinopias are the star of the show, but seahorses, frogfish, ghost pipefish, Ambon scorpionfish, Coleman shrimps, mandarinfish, weird and wonderful nudibranchs and plenty of unusual crustaceans and cephalopods are all on the cards as well.\u003C\u002Fp>","https:\u002F\u002Fwww.zubludiving.com\u002Fimages\u002FIcons\u002Fdiving.svg","Reef and drift diving, muck diving","Intermediate upwards - Alor is known for its strong currents","March to December, best conditions around October and November","5 - 40m+","10 - 35m+","24 - 28C",[372,376,379,382],{"type":373,"tabTitle":374,"tabContent":375},"richtext","About Alor","\u003Cp>The Alor region consists of two large islands, Alor and Pantar, as well as 14 smaller islands due east of Flores. They are amongst the least developed in Indonesia but for travellers willing to invest some time and energy to get to the islands, they offer incredible experiences both above and below the surface of the sea. On land, steep mountains and dry savannahs blend into lush forests that hide waterfalls, hot springs and even an active volcano - Sirung - on Pantar. The rugged mountains and steep valleys that dominate the islands have divided the people that live there into many distinct ethnic groups, with local cultures and traditional beliefs that have been preserved to this day.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The islands are part of the Lesser Sundas and along with Flores to the west, help to define the northern boundary of the Savu Sea. The famous Indonesian Throughflow is at its strongest here - particularly through the Ombai Strait that connects the Savu and Banda Seas - and a huge volume of water is funnelled through the channels that separate each of the islands. These currents bring with them a constant supply of nutrient-rich water, providing the perfect conditions for the marine life flourishes around the islands of Alor. These pristine blue waters and swirling currents, along with the beautiful reefs, drop-offs and sheltered bays, are home to thousands of marine species in one of the richest marine environments in the world.\u003C\u002Fp>",{"type":373,"tabTitle":377,"tabContent":378},"Getting to Alor","\u003Cp>Although a remote and relatively undeveloped part of Indonesia, Alor is reasonably well-connected and a number of domestic carriers connect Alor to international airports in Bali, Jakarta, Makassar or Surabaya, via Kupang in Timor.

Once in Alor, resorts will pick guests up from the airport.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As an alternative to a stopover in Bali, Makassar or Jakarta, guests can break up their flights with a few nights in Maumere, Flores, from which they can climb the extraordinary Kelimutu volcano.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Click here for more information on \u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fwww.zubludiving.com\u002Farticles\u002Fzublu-insights\u002Fgetting-to-remote-destinations-in-indonesia\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">how to get to Alor\u003C\u002Fa>.\u003C\u002Fp>",{"type":373,"tabTitle":380,"tabContent":381},"Where to stay","\u003Cp>Like many of the more remote destinations in Indonesia, much of the diving around Alor and Pantar was only accessible by liveaboard boats for many years.

There are also operators based out of Kupang on Timor that run trips in Alor during the high season.
