Komodo Island Trip from Lombok: A Once-in-a-Lifetime Indonesian Adventure

Setting sail from Lombok to the legendary Komodo National Park offers travelers an unforgettable journey through some of Indonesia’s most breathtaking marine landscapes. This multi-day phinisi cruise combines adventure, relaxation, wildlife encounters, and island-hopping fun all in one immersive trip.

Embarking from Lombok

This special itinerary starts in Lombok and heads east across the Flores Sea toward Komodo National Park. Whether you’re aboard a luxurious 34-meter phinisi or a slightly smaller traditional wooden vessel, the voyage promises beautiful turquoise waters, dramatic island silhouettes, and plenty of moments to relax on deck.

What You’ll Experience

The cruise blends natural wonders with unique experiences:

Komodo National Park Wildlife

One of the major highlights is visiting Komodo Island and Rinca Island, where you can see the world-famous Komodo dragons—the largest lizards on Earth. Guided walks through the park let you observe these prehistoric reptiles up close, along with other wildlife such as deer and exotic birds.

Spectacular Scenery & Hidden Gems

The route includes iconic stops like:

• Padar Island – famous for its panoramic viewpoint overlooking three crescent-shaped bays.
• Pink Beach – one of the rare beaches in the world with sand tinged a soft rosy hue.
• Manta Point – a favorite spot for snorkelers hoping to swim near graceful manta rays.
• Taka Makassar – a scenic sandbank perfect for photography, swimming, or simply relaxing.

You’ll also have ample opportunities to snorkel in crystal-clear waters, explore hidden coves, and sunbathe on deck or sandy beaches.

Trip Duration & Pricing

The typical 4-day, 3-night cruise from Lombok to Labuan Bajo (or vice-versa) is designed for both nature lovers and adventure seekers. Departures happen regularly throughout the year. Prices for 2026 begin around IDR 6,850,000 per person for standard cabin options, with upgrades available for larger rooms, private balconies, or luxury cabins with additional amenities.

Comfort & Onboard Life

Onboard life is comfortable and inclusive. Most packages include:

• Accommodation in air-conditioned cabins
• All meals each day
• Snorkeling gear and water activities
• Professional crew and local guides
• Pick-up and drop-off services at designated points on Lombok and in Labuan Bajo

Cabins range from standard double rooms to more spacious suites, often with private bathrooms, balconies, or even outdoor jacuzzis on higher-end options.

Why Choose This Route?

Departing from Lombok gives you a unique and leisurely approach to exploring Komodo National Park. Instead of flying or joining tours from the more common departure point in Labuan Bajo (on Flores), this itinerary lets you experience the journey as part of the adventure—cruising at sea, watching sunrises and sunsets on the deck, and exploring lesser-visited marine landscapes along the way.

Whether you’re a traveler drawn to dramatic island panoramas, marine biodiversity, or the thrill of spotting prehistoric dragons, this Lombok-to-Komodo sailing trip promises an experience that’s both exhilarating and deeply memorable.
