On day 1 embarkation in Labuhanbajo on the Western tip of Flores. After a few hours of sailing we will make our first stop at the small island of Mesa where we visit a settlement of the Baju, the 'Sea Gypsies' who are indigenous to the area of the Lintas Strait and the Komodo National Park. On day 2 you will visit the rangers station of Loh Buaya on Rinca Island for a first encounter with the fierce Komodo dragons. In the afternoon we go to one of the beaches nearby for some spectacular snorkeling and in the evening our crew will prepare a romantic beach barbecue under the stars. On day 3 you will go ashore at the rangers station in Loh Liang on Komodo Island itself for another trek through the National Park. On day 4 you will wake up in the little harbor of Bima on the island of Sumbawa where you will visit the local market and a village in the nearby highlands where the inhabitants will demonstrate some traditional dances. Most famous is the 'adu kepala' : the ritual head-to-head combat... On day 5 we set foot on land at the little known island of Satonda with its stunning crater lake and beautiful coral gardens. On day 6 we will anchor off East Lombok with a visit to a traditional pottery center and a small village where the villagers will enthusiastically perform some traditional dances. On day 7 your last day aboard the Ombak Putih starts with a relaxing morning on a deserted beach at Gili Nanggu (just off the coast of South Lombok). We will leave around lunch time for the four hour sail back to Bali.
