Komodo National Park
Komodo National Park is located in the waters between Sumbawa and Flores in Indonesia. Listed as a World Natural Heritage site in 1991, it centers on the three main islands of Komodo Island, Padar Island, and Rinca Island, along with several smaller islands and the surrounding waters. The park was originally established to protect the Komodo monitor, a species now found only on a few Indonesian islands, and this remains the primary area for observing them. The Komodo monitor, commonly known as the Komodo dragon, is the largest living lizard, with adults reaching lengths of up to 3m and weighing approx. 70 to 100 kg. They feed on deer and water buffalo, and also scavenge for carrion. Dragon viewing requires hiking along trails accompanied by a ranger. The dragons are more active in the early morning, while at noon they mostly hide in the shade. Both Komodo Island and Rinca Island have campsites and multiple hiking trails of varying lengths. The scenery in this sea area is equally spectacular: the hilltop trail on Padar Island offers a view of three bays with white, pink, and black sand beaches in a single frame, making it a popular spot for sunrise photography. The pink beach on Komodo Island gets its name from the red coral fragments mixed into the white sand, making it perfect for swimming and snorkeling. When snorkeling or diving at the manta ray observation point, you have the chance to swim with manta rays and sometimes encounter sea turtles. At dusk, you can often see flocks of fruit bats flying over the sea toward their feeding grounds. Most itineraries depart from Labuan Bajo port on the western end of Flores. One-day round-trip speedboat tours or multi-day liveaboards are common. The dry season has calmer winds and waves and higher water visibility, making it more suitable for boat trips and snorkeling.Komodo · 46km from Batu Cermin
Padar Island
Located in East Nusa Tenggara, Indonesia, Padar Island is the third largest island in Komodo National Park, nestled between Komodo Island and Rinca Island. Padar Island attracts visitors with its unique topography and natural landscape. The island has a rugged terrain with volcanoes and hills surrounding deep bays, creating a spectacular landscape. The climate is dry, and the vegetation is dominated by shrubs and grass, presenting a tropical savannah-like appearance. There are four deep bays on the island with beaches of different colors, including white, gray and pink sand, providing visitors with a rich visual experience. The waters around Padar Island are famous for scuba diving and snorkeling activities, and the clear waters and abundant marine life make it an ideal location for underwater exploration. A hike to the top of the mountain viewpoint offers a magnificent panoramic view of the entire island, especially at sunrise or sunset. The natural beauty of Padar Island and the rich outdoor activities make it a must-visit place when exploring the Komodo Archipelago.Komodo · 39.3km from Batu Cermin
Pink Beach
There are 7 pink sand beaches in the world, and Komodo just happens to have one. This beach is pink near the sea, very special, the sea water is very cool and crystal clear, and there are many sea fish visible to the naked eye. The turquoise waves, the dark green rolling hills, the azure blue sky, and the pink sand beach, all are so strong and clear that you will be stunned like a demon, forgetting that this is the world. Komodo's pink beach is actually red coral powder. From a distance, it is the effect of powder. There are hundreds of soft and hard corals and thousands of fish species in the pink beach water. It's also a good choice for snorkelers and beginner divers, as even the shallow waters are rich in species, making it a wonderland-like world.Komodo · 43.7km from Batu Cermin

What travellers say about Batu Cermin
RitzPullman20 February 2024
5.0
I won't say much about the fun and sightseeing, but I'd like to remind you to be safe when island hopping. It's best to learn how to use the snorkeling equipment in advance. Most tour guides speak English, and many people go into the water before learning how to do it, which makes them choke easily.
Be sure to wear a life jacket. When getting on and off the boat, children and the elderly should pay attention to the gap between the boat and the dock.
In addition, the projects of each island hopping tour are exactly the same, so just choose the cheaper one. D'tour is very good.

Padar Island in Komodo National Park is famous for its breathtaking viewpoint overlooking three bays with different colored sands—white, black, and pink—making it one of Indonesia’s most iconic landscapes. It’s uninhabited, accessible only by boat from Labuan Bajo, and best experienced at sunrise when the light enhances the dramatic ridges and beaches.

A nice quiet beach. The pink colour is not really that pink as shown in some photos. Still worth visiting though
