Padar Island
Many travelers believe that a trip to Labuan Bajo isn’t complete without reaching the summit of Padar Island. The view from the top is a must-see for every visitor. Climbing to the top involves a 20-30 minute trek, including 818 steps. Although the climb is challenging, the breathtaking
panoramic view of three beaches from the hilltop makes it worthwhile. When going on the trek to Padar Island, make sure to bring essentials such as water, a hat, sunscreen, comfortable footwear, sunglasses, and hiking poles for balance and stability.
Komodo Island
Komodo Island is where you can find one of the 7 Wonders of the World. It’s home to around 1300 Komodo dragons, the biggest lizards in the world. They’re on top of the food chain, and can grow to be 2-3 meters long and weigh up to 90 kg. Visitors to the island can see these fascinating creatures up close with knowledgeable Rangers (Tour Guides). There are three trekking options to choose from: short, medium, and long. If you’re lucky, you might see both large and small Komodo dragons, as well as other wildlife on the island.
Pink Beach
Pink Beach has rare pink sand, found at only seven beaches worldwide. In addition to stunning beach views, the underwater scenery is also remarkable, with various fish, coral reefs, and marine life. Activities such as diving, snorkeling, and sunbathing can be enjoyed here. Visitors can also relax, take in the beautiful panoramic beach views from a boat, and purchase snacks and souvenirs from local vendors.
