Day 1 Arrive Labuan Bajo
On arrival in Labuan Bajo, you will be met and driven to the harbour where you will travel by tender to your phinisi to begin your cruise. Located to the east of Bali and Lombok, Komodo National Park is a UNESCO World Heritage site, home to the legendary endemic Komodo dragon and one of the most sought-after cruising grounds in Indonesia. Jurassic island peaks coated in savannah grasses and lontar palms meet scintillating blue seas, and there are countless beautiful underwater sites to be found just footsteps from the beach. Once on board, the yacht will depart Labuan Bajo and cruise to the outskirts of the National Park while you enjoy lunch on deck. If time allows go snorkelling or try a dive before you watch the sun go down with a cocktail. Dinner will be served under the stars.
Overnight: Private charter phinisi

Day 2 Gili Lawa Laut
Today the yacht will anchor on the north western edge of Komodo, near the Gili Lawa Islands. These two islands are home to Komodo's most famous underwater sites including Castle Rock, Shotgun, The Passage and Lighthouse. Pitch up on a stretch of golden sand between underwater pursuits. A steep trek will reward you with vistas over the islands stretching into the distance.

Day 3 Padar Island
Set between Rinca and Komodo in the central region of the park lies the picturesque island of Padar. A sheltered bay on the southeast side of the island makes for a beautiful anchorage in the shadow of dramatic craggy peaks. Central Komodo's nutrient-rich waters attract shoals of schooling fish on reefs renowned as some of the best in Indonesia. The bay is wonderful for watersports, relaxing on the beach or a tender cruise into the mangroves to spot birdlife.

Day 4 Rinca Island
Lesser known than neighbouring Komodo Island, Rinca is an excellent place to observe Komodo Dragons, as well as the monkey population and an array of birdlife. This morning, stroll through the park with a ranger and catch sight of the famed Komodo Dragons. This afternoon, submerge at underwater sites in the channel between Komodo and Flores, such as Tatawa Besar and Kecil, relax on a sandy beach flecked with shells or explore nearby coves and try some watersports.
