Dive Timor Lorosae

Dive Timor Lorosae is the oldest existing dive shop in Timor and the only PADI 5 star instructor development center (5 star IDC). Established in Timor Leste in 2000, we continue to work with a spirit of adventure and exploration. Most dive sites  here were discovered, explored and named by us! Always wanting to keep divers happy we continue to find amazing dive sites.

Dive Timor Lorosae is located in Timor Leste / East Timor, which is within the Coral Triangle.  As a young country with vast untouched reefs and a refreshingly quiet number of scuba divers, Timor Leste’s location offers a unique diving experience. With constant upwellings from the deep channel found just off shore, there are continuous nutrients provided to the reef. Coral reefs here have stayed strong and healthy with almost no impact from the coral bleaching that have affected other areas of South East Asia. Timor Leste offers you one of the most bio-diverse underwater eco-system in the world, full of coral and fish species in crystal blue water that fills your eyes with beauty, keeping you amazed with each dive.

We have a range of different dive sites; muck dives, great wall dives and some underwater pinnacles, providing a diverse range of wildlife from Nudibranchs, frogfish and seahorses to schooling fish, turtles, reef sharks and if you are lucky enough maybe an eagle ray or dugong. Explore the North Coast of the main land from Dili, or boat dive Atauro Island.

You can also enjoy whale watching during the season as recent scientific studies discovered this  country has the healthiest population of Pygmy Blue Whales, in addition to 41 other species of cetaceans passing through these waters.
