Ataúro Dive Resort

Timor-Leste


This relaxed beachside dive centre offers comfortable island-style bungalows with shared bathrooms (two deluxe ones, US$10 extra, have private showers), as well as a modern block opposite with fan-cooled private rooms and a dorm. Excellent diving spots are just a two-minute boat ride away, or snorkel and dive directly from the beach. Good meals (and home-made ice cream) are served in the attractive common area.

Dives are good value at US$45 to US$50; fascinating night excursions are also offered.
