Explore 6 Highlight of Komodo National Park.

1. Padar Island – One day tour Komodo Island

Padar Island is the third-largest island in the Komodo National Park. Positioned between Komodo and Rinca islands, it is famous worldwide for its dramatic, volcanic topography and a iconic viewpoint that looks down over three spectacular crescent-shaped bays.

From the famous summit trail, you can view three distinct beaches right next to each other, each possessing a different sand color—white, charcoal grey, and a soft, pastel pink. This coloration stems from variations in the local volcanic minerals and coral fragments

2. Pink Beach – One Day tour Komodo Island.

Pink Beach (known locally as Pantai Merah) is one of only seven beaches in the world with naturally blush-toned sand. Nestled within Komodo National Park, this striking coastline sits right against clear turquoise water and arid, rolling savanna hills.

Why is the Sand Pink? The unique pastel color comes from Foraminifera, microscopic amoeba-like organisms that live on nearby coral reefs and produce a deep red pigment.

Over time, ocean waves break down the red corals and mix the crimson fragments into the classic white sand, creating a soft, strawberry-tinted glow along the shoreline. The color becomes exceptionally vibrant when the sand is wet or hit by direct midday sunlight.

3. Komodo Island – One Day Tour Komodo Island.

Komodo Island is the largest island in the Komodo National Park and the official natural habitat of the Komodo dragon, the largest living species of lizard on Earth. Spanning roughly 390 square kilometers of rugged volcanic terrain, savanna hillsides, and pockets of dense tropical forest, the island is globally celebrated as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

4. Taka Makassar – One Day Tour Komodo Island.

Taka Makassar is a tiny, uninhabited crescent-shaped sandbar located in the heart of Komodo National Park. Often called the “Emerging Island,” it is the smallest island in the park and is completely submerged during high tide, leaving only a perfect strip of fine white-and-pink sand visible at low tide.

5. Manta Point – One Day Tour Komodo Island.

Manta Point (known locally as Karang Makassar) is the most famous marine drift-dive and snorkeling site in Komodo National Park. Located directly adjacent to the Taka Makassar sandbar, it is a dynamic underwater channel where travelers can reliably swim alongside colossal reef manta rays (Mobula alfredi).

6. Siaba Island – One Day tour Komodo Island.

Siaba Island is famously known as Komodo National Park’s “Turtle City”. Located in the central-northern region of the park, this serene island functions as a major sanctuary and feeding ground for exceptionally large populations of green sea turtles (Chelonia mydas) and hawksbill turtles (Eretmochelys imbricata)
