When you come to Indonesia, how can you miss Komodo?

Hidden between the blue sea and blue sky of Indonesia is a surprising island - Komodo Island. The 1️⃣ stop is "PADAR ISLAND", Padar Island, the human Sarda. You need to climb a mountain, but there are stairs, so it is basically not difficult. Just pay attention to sun protection if the weather is fine. There will be more people at the photo spot and you have to queue. It takes 30 minutes to reach the top, and you can see the beautiful scenery of four bays. The 2nd stop is "PINK BEACH", a pink beach that is visibly pink. You can play in the water, pick up shells, have a drink in the small pavilion nearby, and watch the deer. Stop 3️⃣ "KOMODO ISLAND" Komodo National Park, looking for Komodo dragons. The park entrance fee is not included in the cost of the entire trip and needs to be charged an additional 400k per person. After the park tour guide finishes the explanation, he will lead the group with a driving stick, and we will walk into the jungle listening to the calls of strange animals. There is a sense of mystery. If you are lucky, you will see seven or eight animals, big and small, and you can take photos with them. The 4th stop is "TAKA MAKASAR" Moon Bay, which is a tail beach in the sea. The sand is very fine and pink, and the sea is transparent. You can see small sharks swimming in the shallow bay. You can snorkel and see completely transparent small fish schools. The 5️⃣ stop is "MANTA POINT", a manta ray diving spot. It is deep in the sea and far from the shore. The tour guide went into the water with everyone to find the elegant and huge Manta babies. We were lucky. We met five or six of them swimming leisurely and very close. We also saw a super big sea turtle. The water surface was not calm, so please pay attention to safety! The last dive site at the 6th stop "SIABA ISLAND" is to see corals and sea turtles. It is also in the deep sea. You can swim around and have a look. The visibility is pretty good.

Labuan bajo

Journey to Flores' Adventure Hotspots! 🛥️🌴🌺 Golo Mori, Padar Island, and Pink Beach form the golden triangle of Labuan Bajo explorations—think rugged cliffs, dazzling pink sands, and pristine sea teamed with breezy island vibes. With AirAsia’s direct flight from Kuala Lumpur, adventure-seekers can skip the transit hassle and dive straight in! Begin at Labuan Bajo (7R7W+9P7, Golo Mori, Komodo): Embark on a liveaboard for the most immersive way to hop islands, spot flying fox sunsets, and occasionally dive alongside manta rays. Must-do: Walk the morning fish market and catch golden hour at Bukit Sylvia. Cruise onward to Padar Island (Komodo, West Manggarai): A sunrise trek up Padar’s steep trail reveals its famous three-colored bays—bring water and start before 7AM to beat the heat and crowds. Insta-worthy angle: The classic cliff photo with the winding beaches below (try panoramic shots for the full drama). Drop anchor at Pink Beach (East Nusa Tenggara): The sand sparkles with pink coral fragments—snorkel for rainbow fish and try the short hike to the viewpoint for stunning coastal shots. Best photos at midday, when sunlight intensifies the pink hues. Quick tips: Pack reef-safe sunscreen, swim shoes, and a dry bag for electronics. Liveaboards can be basic—double-check boat amenities, especially for longer trips! Weather can turn quickly, so a light rain jacket helps. Precaution: Currents are strong around Komodo—always heed local guide advice when swimming or snorkeling. #LabuanBajo #KomodoIslands #IslandHopping #IndonesiaTravel #LiveaboardAdventure
