Rinca Island Sunset Tour

Direct departing for Kelor Island which take around 30 minutes

Your journey begins with a cruise to Kelor Island, a small, picturesque island known for its panoramic viewpoints and serene surroundings. Upon arrival, you’ll take on a short but rewarding trek to the island’s summit. The climb may be modest, but the views are absolutely breathtaking — think turquoise waters, lush hills, and nearby islands dotting the horizon.

This first stop is perfect for photography lovers and those seeking a bit of peaceful nature before diving into more action-packed activities.

Trekking Tips for Kelor Island:

• Wear breathable, light clothing and sturdy footwear.
• Don’t forget sunscreen and a hat to shield you from the tropical sun.

After your trek, it’s time to cool off with a snorkeling session at Menjerite Bay. Known for its calm waters and exceptional clarity, this snorkeling spot is a true hidden gem. The coral reefs here are colorful and teeming with life — from schools of tiny fish to graceful sea turtles and maybe even a stingray or two.

Whether you’re a snorkeling newbie or a seasoned pro, Menjerite Bay offers a laid-back yet visually stunning underwater experience.

Snorkeling Tips:

• Use reef-safe sunscreen to protect marine ecosystems.
• Double-check your snorkeling gear before jumping in.

No Rinca Island Sunset Tour would be complete without meeting the legendary Komodo dragons. Rinca Island is one of the few places on Earth where these ancient reptiles still roam free. Guided by experienced local rangers, you’ll embark on a trek across the island’s rugged terrain in search of these powerful predators.

Besides dragons, Rinca is also home to deer, wild boars, and exotic birds. Your guide will provide fascinating insights into the Komodo dragons’ behavior, diet, and conservation status. Seeing one in the wild — sometimes just a few meters away — is a spine-tingling moment you’ll never forget.

Trekking Tips for Rinca Island:

• Stick close to your guide and always follow safety instructions.
• Bring a camera — you’ll want to remember this!

As your tour winds down, the boat makes its way to Kalong Island, the final and arguably most magical stop of the day. As the sun dips below the horizon, thousands of flying foxes (giant fruit bats) take to the sky in a spectacular display.

Watching these creatures soar into the sunset, silhouetted against the glowing sky, is nothing short of enchanting. It’s the perfect peaceful moment to reflect on your action-packed day in Komodo National Park.

Sunset Tips:

• Bring a light jacket — evenings on the water can be breezy.
• Find a cozy spot on the boat’s deck and enjoy the view.
