Take your exploration of Komodo National Park to the next level with an unforgettable luxury cruise through its most pristine and untouched landscapes. Departing from Bali or Labuan Bajo, immerse yourself in secluded beaches, breathtaking islands, and rich underwater ecosystems teeming with colorful coral and marine life in ultimate comfort, via our carefully curated selection of shared sailing and charter departures. Via a cruise, you will also get to discover the often-lesser explored islands of Komodo National Park, from picturesque Moyo Island to Saleh Bay and Sumbawa Island.
The best time to embark on this adventure is from April to October.
Please note that the itinerary for Bali to Komodo (and vice versa) may vary depending on the selected shared sailing or private charter, the departure date, as well as sea and weather conditions.
Upon arrival at Bali, you will be met and transferred from the airport to the harbour, where you will board Aqua Blu and cruise to Moyo Island as the sun sets. Embarkation time is at 3pm.
Discover Moyo Island, a remote and picturesque island characterised by hilly terrain and charming fishing villages. Trek through lush landscapes and diverse wildlife to arrive at the breathtaking waterfall at the heart of the island. For those seeking a more exhilarating experience, you can dive and snorkel in the fringing shallow reefs around Moyo for an unforgettable aqua adventure
After an overnight sail, we arrive in Saleh Bay, where you’ll have the chance to encounter friendly whale sharks up close. In the afternoon, we explore Sumbawa Island and kayak in the crater of the extinct Sattonda volcano – set against the blue of the caldera and the surrounding verdant hills, the landscape is absolutely stunning.
Wake up to a sumptuous breakfast with the majestic Sangeang volcano as the backdrop. After arriving at Komodo Island, you’ll trek its savannah in search of the largest population of Komodo Dragons up close. In the afternoon, we dive and snorkel at Batu Moncho, and meet pgymy seahorses, colourful nudibranch, frogfish, Hawksbill turtles, and colourful damselfish in the azure blue.
In the morning, head out for a scenic kayaking session over shallow coral reefs through a current-swept passage near Gili Lawa Island. From here, you can view the indigenous Rusa Deer roaming the sandy beaches if you’re lucky. In the afternoon, arrive at the postcard perfect Padar Island. Hike up to its summit for spectacular views of the surrounding deep blue and rugged volcanic mountains.
Arrive in Horseshoe Bay, a dramatic curvature of land located on the southern end of Rinca Island. Lesser visited and lesser known, Rinca Island provides a good chance to discover the Komodo Dragons with fewer crowds and in their natural habitat. Visit the favourite haunts of sea eagles and Komodo Dragons onboard Aqua Blu’s tenders or choose to dive or swim. In the late afternoon, explore the iconic Pink Beach on Komodo Island.
Enjoy a snorkel or drift dive along rainbow reef at Tattawa Bessar. Full of a myraid of soft and hard coral, the reef teems with marine life such as barracuda, giant trevallies, eagle and manta rays, as well as black tip reef sharks. The reef is also a famous spot for macro photography: with the chance to spot colourful nudibranch, leafy scorpionfish, and more. In the afternoon, relax and unwind splashing about in the azure sea, or enjoy some more snorkelling around the calm reefs surrounding Sabulon before ending the day with your final Komodo sunset.
On your last day, arrive at Labuan Bajo, the bustling fishing town situated on Flores Island. Disembarkation time is at 8am. Upon disembarking, you will be transferred to Komodo International Airport for your onward journey or flight home.
