If you're dreaming of a raw adventure through Indonesia’s most stunning archipelago, there’s nothing quite like a Komodo Island tour from Lombok. This isn’t just another boat trip—it’s a once-in-a-lifetime voyage through remote islands, pink beaches, Jurassic landscapes, and surreal sunrises.

Plus, you’ll be sleeping on board a traditional wooden boat, surrounded by nothing but the stars and the ocean.
This sailing adventure is carefully curated to maximize both exploration and relaxation. Here's what to expect each day.

As the boat glides through the Alas Strait, you’ll stop at Kenawa Island—a small, grassy island perfect for small hiking the panoramic sunset views or swimming. Later, as the sun dips below the horizon, the boat sets sail eastward toward the untouched corners of Sumbawa.
Wake up to the sound of waves and breakfast served on deck. This day is packed with adventure. Depending on the season, you might stop at Whale Shark Point to snorkel alongside gentle giants. This is one of the most wanted spot in this trip. Whaleshark is a wild animal, Let's save them by not touching or feed them.
This is the day many travelers have been waiting for. The boat anchors near Komodo Island. With a park ranger as your guide, you’ll trek through the rugged terrain to spot the iconic Komodo dragons. Afterward, head to Pink Beach, a stunning stretch of blush-colored sand caused by crushed red coral. Snorkeling here is excellent. Later, prepare for the dramatic climb to Padar Island’s summit, where sweeping views await. The day ends with a calm night on the boat, anchored in a quiet bay.
Depending on the route, you may visit Manjarite and Kelor Island for snorkeling spot a final swim and hike. The trip concludes as the boat approaches Labuan Bajo Harbour in Flores.
