Airport taxes

Visitors to Indonesia are required to pay departure taxes at the airport. The departure tax for domestic travel is 20,000 Rp (2€), while the tax for international departures is 75,000 Rp (7€).


Currency

The official currency is Indonesian Rupiah. The rate of exchange is approximately 1US$ = 9,500 Rp. or 1 Euro = 11,500 Rp. There is only one ATM on ALOR and we advise you to bring along a sufficient amount of rupiah to cover your personal expenses. The resort accepts Rupiah, Euro, US, SING and AUS Dollars.


Insurance

It is strongly recommended to have insurance that also covers diving activity and you are advised to confirm well ahead your arrival that the insurance company can effectively service the remote regions of Indonesia.


Malaria

For most of the year we have practically no mosquitoes since there is no standing freshwater or any open water containers. However - to be on the safe side all beds are protected with removable mosquito-nets and we can provide some mosquito repellent if you don't bring any along (needed in the rainy season only, from Dec to end of Feb).

Indonesia is classified as a malaria risk country. Taking preventive (prophylactic) medication is a matter of personal decision.


Vaccination

There are no vaccinations required.


Seasonality

The diving is possible all year round but the resort is not operating from 25th of Jan to 15th of Feb (maintenance and staff holiday) during the peak of the rainy season.

The house reef can be, some days in august, difficult to access due to the east wind creating swell. The microclimate of Alor archipelago is relatively dry for most of the year.


Communications

At the resort you can get cell phone signal and we provide an Indonesian HP number if your number is not active in Indonesia, so you can contact and be contacted by your relatives and friends.


Time difference

Alor is +8 GMT.
