During your stay at Alami Alor you will have the opportunity to visit a variety of snorkeling environments with Alor’s numerous coral reef sites, pelagic snorkeling in the Pantar Strait, and the resort’s house reef. As one of Alami Alor’s snorkeler guests interested in exploring the Alor Islands by boat, you have the option to join the morning boat for a half day trip. One of the resort’s experienced snorkeling guides will accompany you in-water, helping to search for and identify fish and reef creatures.
Thanks to Alami Alor’s fantastic house reef you don’t even have to hop on a boat to have a great time. It is an excellent and convenient place for snorkelers to explore with access via the dock’s floating platform. From morning until evening, you can look out for octopi, swimming eels, lobsters in their holes, pipefish, batfish and plenty of schooling fish circling at the surface. At the right tide, juvenile black-tip reef sharks prowl the shallow reef top chasing small fish. At sunset, the resort’s crew is happy to join you on an adventurous quest to find the resident mandarinfish that live in the shallow water just meters from the jetty.
