Day 2 to Day 6

The schedule for this region is not as “fixed” as we like to evaluate conditions and divers and what is hot at the moment .  The phase of the moon and ensuing currents also factor highly in dive site selection. Lots or little experience, Mermaid Livebaoards will ensure we provide dives to suit all levels and ensure all have a brilliant dive holiday.

Islands and areas we will be visiting include  Serbete, South Adonara, North Adonara, Tanjung Kuli, Pulau Lapang, Pulau Balang, north east Paular, Pulau Ternate in Alor/Pantar Strait, Lewolu (in the Kalabali channel), Beta Island, Pulau Para, Beangabang Ba y at Pantar, Pulau ura

Diving opportunities include dramatic sheer walls, crystal clear reef tops, caverns, deep ledges, black sand, lava flows, and night dive gravel areas that give Lembeh a real run for its money, sea mounts and fringing reefs – paradise for all divers and well worth adding the Maumere-Alor-Maumere cruise to your list of awesome dive places you must enjoy !
