About Nautika Dive Alor

Nautika Dive Alor is located in Alor Besar, on a beautiful stretch of coastline known locally as Molugara Beach, not too far away from the most popular dive sites. The first and the only PADI dive resort in the Alor Archipelago, Nautika was inspired by a passion for diving, environment and education, with the heartfelt mission to provide safe and memorable underwater experiences. This establishment is also owned and operated by Indonesian dive professionals, who have taken a leading role in helping the local people grow and develop.

The resort welcomes divers of all levels and experience, from budding marine enthusiasts looking for a trustworthy dive centre for their courses, to underwater photographers and videographers searching for their next award winning subjects. Divers of all kinds can rest easy knowing that Nautika’s safety standards are rock solid. But, when it comes to hospitality, they value flexibility above all else featuring a team of passionate and professional individuals who are dedicated to turning your dreams into reality.

Nautika Dive Alor features just four rooms to accommodate divers, guaranteeing a peaceful and intimate atmosphere at all times. Although the rooms vary in size, all are equipped with an ensuite bathroom and are similar in style and amenities. Guests can choose between a variety of sleeping configurations, with king, twin, and bunk-bed options. 

This small resort’s setting is one of its defining features, boasting a beautiful and spacious beachfront courtyard garden furnished with comfortable lounge chairs and hammocks. Here, guests will also find the ocean view dining area with large arching doorways and windows framing the spectacular vistas beyond. Meals generally come in the form of delicious home-cooked buffets, though a la carte meals can be created to cater to specific dietary requirements. Afternoon teas are also available here, with refreshing beverages and local pastries served with spectacular views as the sun begins to descend towards the horizon.
