On day 1 embarkation in Labuhanbajo (LBJ), West Flores. After a few hours of sailing we reach our first destination, the uninhabited island of Sabolon. Here we spend our first afternoon beachcombing and snorkeling and a quiet night at anchor under the stars. On day 2 after a refreshing morning dip in the sea we hoist the anchor around nine o' clock and after a short sail our first stop of the day will be on 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 live in houses on wooden stilts that are often underwater during the high tide. In the afternoon we move to another deserted beach on nearby Mauan Island in the heart of the National Park. At the end of the afternoon we move to our night anchorage in Komodo Bay. On day 3 we go ashore at the Rangers station in Loh Liang for a trek on the island that gave its name to the Park. We make the trek in the company of some experienced rangers so we can watch the dragons in their natural habitat. We have lunch while crossing over to nearby Padar Island to another spectacular beach location for more exceptional snorkeling. At the end of the day we move to a protected bay to spend the night at anchor. On day 4 you will visit the rangers station of Loh Buaya on Rinca Island for a second encounter with the fierce dragons besides which we are likely to come upon much more wildlife. After a short sail along the Northern Coast we also pay a visit to Rinca village. Finally we move to Kelor Island where in the evening our crew will prepare a romantic beach barbecue under the stars. On day 5 we sail back to Flores and after a morning excursion to witness a spectacular ancient whip fight dance by the local Manggarai people we take you to the Labuan Baju airport for your return flight to Bali.
