Shhh don't spread the word.. I don't want Alor to get as crowded as Komodo.
No, but we saw one up shallow (above us on the reef) on a very similar and near site in Alor. We actually saw them on a couple different sites. We did see Mola Molas and actually saw Hammerheads hunting a squadron of Eagle Rays. I can't remember if we saw Mantas. We saw so many in Komodo that it would not have been a big deal.
Hooo... and the threshers were there?
Along with hammerheads, silkies, all kind of reef sharks, sometimes a blue whale passing by, it seems Alor is becoming the capital spot for big fish in Indonesia.
Anyone to add sightings of whale sharks and manta rays?
