About this site
The Afterlife sits off Alor Island in East Nusa Tenggara, part of the Lesser Sunda chain in eastern Indonesia, in waters separated from Pantar Island by the Pantar Strait. The site reaches a maximum depth of around 40 metres and is rated an intermediate dive. Divers have reported mimic octopus and seahorses here, the kind of muck-diving finds that draw operators out from Kalabahi and the surrounding coastal villages. The straits around Alor are generally known for strong currents funneling through the channel.
