Komodo Dream Island Guide

🌊Komodo Island Luxury Vacation Guide|Unlock the Pink Beach and Dragon Legends🏝️

Just finished a dreamlike Komodo trip
This is definitely the most otherworldly place I've ever seen!
Organized a 6-day 5-night nanny-level itinerary
You can get the same fairy-tale island experience for just over 5k per person~

✨Daily Highlights✨
𝑫𝒂𝒚 1: Transit in Bali → Komodo Airport → Stay at Ayana Hotel
• Recommend Ayana’s cliff pool (Jl. Raya Silvia No.1), cocktails at sunset are amazing
• The hotel’s private pier allows direct booking for next day boat tours

𝑫𝒂𝒚 2: Pink Beach → Padar Island
• Best time to shoot Pink Beach is before 10 AM (Pantai Merah)
• It takes 40 minutes to hike to the top of Padar Island, bring hiking shoes! The postcard view of three bays in one frame is here

𝑫𝒂𝒚 3: Komodo Dragon Tracking → Crescent Bay Snorkeling
• Suggest going early to Rinca Island to see the dragons’ morning activities
• Remember to bring a waterproof phone case for snorkeling, the coral reefs are breathtaking

𝑫𝒂𝒚 4: Manta Rays at Kalong Island → Bat Sunset
• Manta rays appear on the north side of Kalong Island (Manta Point)
• Head to Kalong Island before 5 PM to watch thousands of bats return to their roost

𝑫𝒂𝒚 5: Pyramid Island → Sea Fishing Experience
• The boat stay provides fishing gear, and you can BBQ the fish you catch directly
• Remember to prepare 50,000 Indonesian Rupiah per person for the islanders’ environmental protection fee

𝑫𝒂𝒚 6: Hotel Spa → Return Trip
• Highly recommend Ayana’s volcanic stone hot therapy (advance booking required)

🍽️Food Highlights and Warnings
Highlights:
• Coconut shrimp at Ayana Beach Club (about 200 RMB per person)
• Freshly grilled tuna jaw at the pier night market (opens at 6 PM)
Warnings:
• Be cautious about the so-called "special bat soup" on the island

⚡Useful Tips:
1. November to March is the rainy season, not recommended to visit
2. Always go with a guide to see Komodo dragons! Dragons in mating season are very dangerous
3. Wear closed shoes at all attractions to avoid coral cuts and infections
4. Exchange money at Bali airport, there are very few exchange points in Komodo
5. Drone filming requires advance permission

Living by the glassy sea is truly wonderful~
Every day waking up to the sound of Tiffany blue waves
Here, even breathing is a luxurious enjoyment!
