01 — Day by day

Seven days through Komodo and Flores

A curated experience designed to reveal the hidden gems of an archipelago boasting over 17,500 islands.

  1. Embarkation in Labuan Bajo

    Your 7-day exploration begins in Labuan Bajo, Flores, the primary hub for voyages into Komodo National Park. The transfer from airport to marina takes around 15 minutes, covering approximately 3 kilometres. As the yacht weighs anchor, you glide out of the harbour towards the first secluded anchorage, perhaps near Sabolo or Seraya Kecil Island, where water clarity often exceeds 20 metres.

  2. Komodo’s Ancient Guardians & Pink Beach

    Expert park rangers lead a guided trek on Komodo Island, a UNESCO World Heritage Site established in 1980, home to approximately 3,000 Komodo dragons reaching lengths of over 3 metres. The trek typically runs 1.5 to 2.5 hours. The afternoon is spent at Pink Beach (Pantai Merah), whose colour comes from Foraminifera; the water averages 28 °C, perfect for snorkeling or paddleboarding.

  3. Iconic Panoramas & The Dance of the Mantas

    An ascent of Padar Island via approximately 800 steps — a 30–45 minute hike — rewards you with a 360-degree panorama of three crescent beaches in white, black and pink sand. The yacht then sets course for Manta Point (Karang Makassar), roughly 15 nautical miles away, where oceanic manta rays with wingspans often exceeding 4 metres gather. Visibility often reaches 25 metres.

  4. Hidden Lagoons & The Rhythms of Nature

    A trek on Rinca Island, home to an estimated 1,300 dragons, often provides closer encounters near the ranger stations. The yacht then navigates towards hidden lagoons and coves for private swimming and paddleboarding, with an al fresco lunch served on the beach. At dusk the yacht positions near Kalong Island for the exodus of thousands of fruit bats with wingspans up to 1.5 metres.

  5. Flores Highlands: A Glimpse into Culture

    A land excursion into the highlands — perhaps the traditional village of Wae Rebo, a UNESCO-recognised site famous for its conical Mbaru Niang houses, situated at approximately 1,100 metres above sea level. Alternatively, Cunca Wulang waterfall offers natural swimming pools and a short trek through local coffee plantations. Lunch is a local culinary experience featuring traditional Flores dishes.

  6. Subaquatic Worlds & The Art of Departure

    The yacht navigates to Batu Bolong — a renowned pinnacle dive site attracting reef sharks and eagle rays at depths from 5 to 40 metres — and Taka Makassar, a sandbar that emerges at low tide with pristine white sand and crystal-clear shallows. The evening brings a special farewell dinner on the aft deck, or a final beach barbecue under a canopy of stars.

  7. Journey’s End: Reflections on the Archipelago

    A leisurely breakfast as your yacht makes its way back towards Labuan Bajo. You have encountered ancient dragons, swum with majestic mantas, hiked to panoramic vistas, and connected with traditional cultures. Disembarkation is smooth, with your crew assisting with transfers to Komodo Airport for your onward journey.

02 — Beyond the headline sites

Where the itinerary goes off the map

Coastal Caves & Secret Beach Retreats

Beyond the well-known sites, the Komodo region holds numerous smaller islands and coastal formations offering unique discoveries. One such area might involve exploring a sea cave accessible only by tender at low tide, revealing ancient stalactites and the sound of waves echoing within. Your crew can arrange a personalized snorkeling trip to a vibrant, unnamed reef teeming with pygmy seahorses, nudibranchs, and schools of fusiliers, guided by an experienced divemaster. The water temperature consistently hovers around 27–29 degrees Celsius, making extended periods in the water comfortable.

Local Encounters & Artisan Craftsmanship

Your itinerary might include a visit to a local market in Labuan Bajo, where you can observe the vibrant trade of fresh produce, spices, and handcrafted goods. Many small communities around Flores maintain traditional weaving practices, producing intricate ikat fabrics. A visit to a small weaving cooperative allows you to witness the painstaking process of dyeing and weaving, which can take weeks or even months for a single piece. The craftsmanship seen in these villages echoes the dedication and skill found in a reputable indonesia yacht builder, where every detail is heritage and precision.
