Muhammad Haki
PADI Assistant Instructor
Affectionately known as Bram, he’s a pioneer in Alor’s dive scene — the first Alorese divemaster, now a certified PADI Assistant Instructor. Born in the coastal village of Alor Kecil, he grew up watching his father work as a trader, learning early on the values of hard work, resilience, and humility.
Bram has spent over two decades diving in Alor’s waters. His eyes are sharp, his spotting skills unmatched — especially when it comes to muck diving. But it’s not just his experience that stands out. It’s the way he dives with purpose, pride, and a clear vision for the future of his island.
His journey into diving began with the support of La Petite Kepa Alor, who first opened the path for him to explore life beneath the surface. Years later, with the guidance and opportunity provided by Air Dive Alor, Bram achieved his dream of becoming a certified Divemaster — setting a new precedent for Alorese representation in the industry.
Now, as a PADI Assistant Instructor, Bram continues to lead by example — not just in the water, but in his belief that Alor must grow in a way that protects its nature, uplifts its people, and brings everyone to the same table.
He speaks conversational French, helping him connect with a broader range of guests and foster meaningful cultural exchanges. Bram brings people together with warmth, humor, and a genuine love for what he does — helping guests fall in love with Alor, and helping Alorese youth see what’s possible.
