About this activity
Beat the sunrise crowds with this early-departure speedboat tour of Komodo National Park, covering six island stops in a single 11-hour day. You'll encounter the world's largest lizards on Komodo Island, snorkel pristine reefs, and spot manta rays—all from a boat that departs while others are still sleeping.
Join our group tour for an unforgettable day exploring Komodo National Park! Our adventure begins early in the morning, with one of the first boats leaving the harbor in Labuan Bajo. We’ll pick you up from your hotel and transfer you to the jetty, so you can start your journey bright and early.
Our tour kicks off with a boat ride to Padar Island, where you'll be treated to breathtaking landscapes. Next, we’ll head to Komodo Island to see the legendary Komodo dragons—the largest lizard in the world. Afterward, sail to Pink Beach, where you can snorkel and discover vibrant marine life.
The journey continues to Taka Makassar for more snorkeling among colorful coral reefs. At Manta Point, you'll have the chance to see graceful manta rays gliding beneath the surface. Finally, we’ll visit Kanawa Island, renowned for its stunning coral reef garden.
In the late afternoon, we’ll sail back to Labuan Bajo, ending your incredible day in the park.

Insider tips
- ★Arrive at your hotel pickup point 15 minutes early; early departures mean no buffer time and boats leave on schedule.
- ★Bring reef-safe sunscreen and reapply after each snorkel stop—equatorial sun reflects intensely off water.
- ★Pack a dry bag for electronics; speedboats create spray, and the snorkeling stops mean wet clothes all day.
- ★The early-bird timing means calmer seas in the morning and fewer tourists at Padar Island's viewpoint.
Good to know
