November to February is the rainy season, so itineraries may be adjusted or postponed if conditions are unsafe. The upside is fewer crowds and excellent chances to see manta rays. If you choose to travel during this period, you may need to stay longer while waiting for sailing clearance from the local Harbor Master, who regulates departures based on sea conditions for safety reasons.
If you are catching an afternoon flight after the tour, please bring your luggage with you and store it in the shuttle car. The same car will take you straight to the airport once the tour ends.
Guests planning to bring a drone to Komodo National Park must inform us at least 5 days in advance, hold a valid drone flying certification, and obtain a permit costing 2.5 million rupiah, which we must pay upfront and can be reimbursed upon your arrival. Please let us know if you’d like our assistance.

Activity itinerary

Labuan Bajo

Our pick-up service begins at 5:30 AM, depending on your hotel’s location. Simply wait in your hotel lobby, and we’ll ensure a smooth transfer to the harbor for the check-in process. Once the formalities are complete, you’ll board one of our speedboats, which departs promptly before 6:00 AM from Labuan Bajo. Depending on bookings, we offer three speedboat options tailored to group sizes: a large speedboat for up to 17 passengers, a medium speedboat for up to 14 passengers, and a small speedboat for up to 7 passengers. In total, we can accommodate up to 38 guests daily and even with just one booking, our boat will depart as scheduled.

Padar Island

1h 20m
Admission ticket not included

From your hotel, we’ll head directly to the harbor to board our speedboat and set off on a day filled with discovery. It takes approximately 60 minutes by speedboat from Labuan Bajo to reach our first destination, the iconic Padar Island. Renowned for its dramatic landscapes and unique trio of colored beaches—white, pink, and black—Padar is a feast for the senses. As we approach, you’ll be captivated by the island’s rugged hills and stunning vistas. To reach the best viewpoint for capturing truly stunning pictures, guests will need to walk up 815 well-constructed concrete steps. While a good physical condition is required, the steady steps make the ascent more manageable and guests can take their time to rest along the way. At the top, you’ll be rewarded with sweeping panoramic views—an unforgettable highlight of Komodo National Park.

Pink Beach

1h 10m

From Padar Island, we continue to the enchanting Pink Beach. It takes approximately 10 minutes by speedboat to reach this stunning destination. The beach’s distinctive pink-hued sand is the result of white sand blending with red coral fragments, creating a soft, rosy shoreline you won’t find anywhere else. Here, you’ll have time to unwind, swim in the crystal-clear waters, and simply relax as you soak in the beach’s unique charm.

Komodo National Park

1h 50m

Next, we head to Komodo Island, which is approximately a 20-minute speedboat ride from Pink Beach. It is home to the legendary Komodo dragons, the largest lizards on Earth. These awe-inspiring creatures can grow up to 3 meters (10 feet) in length and are known for their powerful build and fascinating predatory behavior. Accompanied by experienced rangers, you’ll embark on a guided trek to observe these dragons safely in their natural environment, blending thrilling wildlife encounters with the stunning scenery of the island.

Lunch

Taka Makassar Island

As the adventure continues, we journey to Taka Makasar, which takes approximately 25 minutes by speedboat from Komodo Island. This picturesque sandbar is renowned for its crescent shape and pristine waters. It’s the ideal spot to relax, sunbathe, and marvel at the beauty of the ocean.

Manta Point

Then, it’s off to Manta Point, which is just a 5-minute speedboat ride from Taka Makasar. Famous for its frequent sightings of graceful manta rays, this spot is a haven for these gentle giants, drawn to the area’s nutrient-rich currents. It’s one of the best places to snorkel and watch them glide peacefully beneath the surface. If you’re lucky, you might even get to swim alongside them!

Pulau Siaba Besar

Our final stop is Siaba Island, which is approximately a 15-minute speedboat ride from Manta Point. Known as a prime location to encounter sea turtles, this spot invites you to dive into crystal-clear waters and explore colorful coral gardens teeming with vibrant tropical fish, reef sharks, and, of course, gentle sea turtles. This underwater paradise is the perfect way to conclude a day filled with exploration and adventure. At 3:00 PM, we embark on our return journey to Labuan Bajo, which takes approximately 60 minutes from Siaba. We are expected to arrive in Labuan Bajo by 4:00 PM.

Labuan Bajo

Our driver will be waiting for you at the harbor at 4:00 PM. Upon your arrival, they will ensure a smooth and seamless transfer to your hotel or the airport. For those planning to catch a flight to Bali, the airport is conveniently located just about 5 minutes from the harbor, ensuring you arrive with plenty of time for check-in.
