Alor is renowned for strong current however like anywhere else in the world, you can find sites with current and those without. The intensity of the current mostly depends on the moon cycle, tides and time. Alor has a trickier formula for the current due to our location between the Indian and Pacific Ocean's where currents are influenced by the unique marine topography however with the "complexity", the sea in Alor is rich of marine life diversity and healthy coral reef. With the right calculation of moon cycle and time, current shouldn't be an issue, but rather an enhancement. Waterproof camera is highly recommended while you visit Alor, these are the recommended Waterproof Camera that we can rely on.
