17 Islands and the Flying Foxes of Ruteng

Tucked away in the heart of Flores, the 17 Islands National Park is a must-visit for adventure seekers. We embarked on a private boat tour, making our way through this beautiful marine reserve with crystal-clear waters and pristine islands. But the real highlight? The incredible sight of trees completely covered with flying foxes! These huge, bat-like creatures add a mystical touch to the already stunning landscape.

After exploring the islands, we snorkeled in the vibrant coral reefs and enjoyed a fresh seafood lunch. The experience was truly unforgettable, filled with natural beauty, wildlife, and local charm. If you’re ever in Ruteng, don’t miss out on this wild and fascinating excursion!
