Labuan Bajo to Sebayur Island

distance 12 NM

Sebayur Island to Komodo Island

This leg follows a scenic westward course into the heart of Komodo Island. The coastline alternates between savannah hills and black-stone volcanic formations shaped by ancient eruptions. The protected bay at Loh Liang provides reliable holding and proximity to the island’s dragon habitat.

A short yet dramatic cruise brings you to Padar, known for its sharp ridgelines and tri-colored beaches.

Swimming and snorkeling over rose-tinted sands
