"My second destination for scuba diving" Pulau Aur by muratkorman

Pulau Aur Travel Guide: 20 reviews and 51 photos

An island dedicated to scuba diving

Pulau Aur is a beautiful island with clear waters full of fish. It won't be wrong if I say that this island is only for scuba diving as there is nothing else to do here. That was the reason why I chose Pulau Aur for my second destination for diving. I enjoyed so much the mild climate, the beautiful scenery and the fascinating sea. I wish I could have stayed longer than a weekend.

Second visit

After 1 year, I had the chance to visit Pulau Aur again. The island as beautiful as it was, offered everything it could to us.

Pros and Cons

Pros:Clear waters, Perfect for diving
Cons:Nothing else to do except diving, Long boat journey (4-5 hours) from mainland

Last visit to Pulau Aur: Apr 2009

Great tips. Must've been some great visits. I certainly couldn't have gotten close enough to that shark for a picture. Hope you have a great birthday.
