Understand[edit] Map of Labuanbajo, Flores Island, Indonesia Once a small fishing village, the capital of the regency Manggarai Barat, the western most region of Flores, Labuan Bajo also spelled Labuhanbajo and Labuanbajo in Flores is now a busy bustling epicenter of tourism. But don't let that fool you, this small, dusty town does not have much to offer within the city limits itself; though some spots can boast a stunning sunset overlooking the town on a beautiful day. It is, however, the launching point for impressive trips to Komodo Island and Rinca Island, home of the famous Komodo dragons. Besides spotting the Varanus komodensis, the main attraction in this area is the extraordinary marine life. Komodo archipelago is indeed a paradise for both divers and snorkellers. Several islands within a hour by boat from Labuan Bajo offer great diving and snorkeling opportunities Bidadari Island, Seraya Island, Sabolo Island to the North of Labuan Bajo, and Kanawa and Sebayur island to the West. Southward, on the route to Rinca there is Kalong Island which houses a colony of âflying foxesâ, huge bats that can be seen flying away in thousands at dusk.

All the tour boats have the same program of snorkelling, trekking and komodo dragon watching, stopping at the same stunning reefs, beaches and waterfalls along the way. For years there have been rumors of safety issues on these boats. However, so far all these rumors have been just that. There are, however, many who remark on the noise on all boats, so bring earplugs and don't expect any deep, meaningful conversations while the engine is running.

Each group must also pay for a guide for 80,000 IDR. When you walk down the main street in town just about every other store is a guide shop that will arrange transport to and from Rinca and/or Komodo islands for you. It typically costs 350,000 IDR per person for a package that includes round trip boat rides, and with a stop for snorkeling and lunch at a nearby island on the way back snorkeling equipment and lunch are included, but the park fees are not. Inquire as to whether there will be towels and life vests provided, as these are not a given. The mating season for the Komodo dragons is in July and August, so they are often harder to spot then. 2 night/3 day Boat trips can be organized with local tour operators ranging from 700,000 to 2,000,000 per person excluding park entrance fees, or boat anchorage fees. Please note that the tour includes snorkelling at a number of locations and visiting both Komodo and Rinca Islands. Despite price differences the trip itself is usually identical with prices differences dependent on the season, amount of guests, on sleeping accommodation on the boat and the kind of food you eat. For a good deal try to negotiate with captains directly. It might be a better idea to organize the tour from Kanawa if you are planning to go there as it is nearer Rinca and Komodo and you have more time for snorkelling and it might be cheaper. However, as of 2015, only day- and half-day trips are offered at Kanawa, while longer trips must be arranged elsewhere. Besides, Bapak Gregorius from the Cool Corner Backpackers Hostel is apparently originally from Komodo and could organize a cheap boat transfer to the island + home stay for a night or more. Rinca Island Indonesian Rinca Kecil or Pulau Rinca is a more convenient place to see Komodo Dragons than Komodo island. Some dive operators might be convinced to combine a stop at the island with a days diving - otherwise charters can be arranged, or walk along the main street of Labuan Bajo and some tour agencies may be advertising places on an existing charter. There are big dragons that are often right in front of the pier when people arrive. On arrival a guide will escort you to the park office where you will be relieved of a range of fees totaling 275,000Rp, plus guide fee of 80,000Rp, then you can choose one of three hikes based on distance. While good for three days in the past, the national park fee is now only good for a single day for both Rinca and Komodo Islands. If you do a two day boat trip, they'll usually include Rinca and Komodo in the same day so you dont have to pay the fee twice. Trekking Mt.
