11 Cool Things to Do in Labuan Bajo & Practical Tips

Everything you need to know to plan your trip to labuan bajo and the komodo islands.

Most people know Labuan Bajo as the small fishing village that’s the gateway to Komodo National Park. So they tend to come for a Komodo boat tour, and fly out immediately after their cruise.

We’d recommend spending at least a week in Labuan Bajo (or even two weeks!), so that you can explore Labuan Bajo and its surroundings more. You’ll be rewarded with incredibly rich culture, great hidden caves and even a tri-coloured volcano! 

Cool Things to Do Around Labuan Bajo 

1. komodo islands boat trip .

Komodo National Park is one of our favourite places in the world, and feels like it comes right out of Game of Thrones. The national park is not one island, but 29 islands in total. At the islands, you’ll see ancient Komodo dragons, chill on pink beaches, hike epic viewpoints, and snorkel with giant turtles and manta rays.

To visit the park, you'll need to take boat tour from Labuan Bajo to the main islands such as Rinca Island / Komodo Island, Padar Island, Kalong Island and Makassar Island. You can either do a full day speedboat tour that covers 6 islands, or a 2-3 days’ liveaboard boat trip that covers 5-8 islands.

Time required: 1-3 days.

2. Diving in Komodo National Park 

Komodo National Park is one of the best places to dive in the world. You get to see the most beautiful coral walls, sharks, mantas, turtles and so much more here. And the best thing about diving at Komodo is: whether you’re a complete beginner (i.e. no diving licence) or are an advanced diver, there’s a dive spot for you here! 

3. Rangko Cave

Rangko Cave is a hidden underground lake with crystal clear waters in gorgeous turquoise, surrounded by towering limestone stalagmites. We love the experience of swimming in the cave as it’s just incredibly secluded and peaceful. It’s perfect for photography and just getting away from the bustle of Komodo. 

Time required: 3-4 hours.

4. Batu Cermin 

Batu Cermin is another cool cave that is surprisingly not crowded at all. Its name means mirror stone cave because the limestone walls glitter when exposed to light. There’s no swimming here but there’s a complex tunnel system that requires you to duck crawl through in certain areas! (Hard hats are provided so don't worry!). Visit Batu Cermin with Rangko Cave and Sylvia Hill for a full day trip !

5. Sylvia Hill 

Sylvia Hill is the best kept secret for gorgeous sunsets in Labuan Bajo! The hilltop offers a stunning view of upside down hills (that look like blobby Teletubbies), the sea and surrounding islands. It’s also pretty undiscovered, so you’ll usually have the hill all to yourself for sunset! 

Time required: 1 hour

6. Melo Village 

If you want to experience local culture when you’re in Labuan Bajo, head to Melo Village for a glimpse into the rich cultural heritage of the Manggarai people. Here, you can witness the traditional way of life, learn about their customs, and engage with the warm and friendly locals. The opportunity to watch the Caci dance, a traditional martial arts dance unique to the region, adds an extra layer of cultural immersion to the experience.

7. Cunca Wulang waterfalls 

If you're headed to Melo Village, pair your trip with a visit to Cunca Wulang waterfalls ! These cascading waterfalls are hidden in a tropical forest and have crystal clear waters that flow into meandering rivers. The short hike to the waterfalls is really fun, with the opportunity to jump off rocks and swim in the beautiful canyon.

Time required: 2-3 hours.

8. Visit the Fish Night Market

The Fish Market is on the edge of Labuan Bajo town, a short 10-15 walk from the harbour. This is a pretty small market with only several stalls, and is primarily catered for tourists. It is also not cheap by any means (we spent SGD $20 per person!). But the food here is yummy and fresh!

Time required: 1 hour. Opens at sunset.

9. Enjoy rooftop drinks at Seaesta

Seaesta is a very pretty Greek-style (think Mama Mia vibes!) boutique hostel in the heart of Labuan Bajo, and is also the party central in this sleepy fishing town. There is live music on its chic rooftop on the weekends, so just pop by and enjoy the party vibes with a cocktail or a Bintang beer!

Road Trip Beyond Labuan Bajo 

1. wae rebo.

Wae Rebo is a remote Mangarrai village, with iconic cone-shaped traditional houses. Getting there feels like you’re on an adventure to a remote shire in Lord of the Rings. There are no roads into the village. You’ll need to drive 5-6 hours from Labuan Bajo, then hike 3-4 hours to the village from the closest road.

This isn’t an adventure for the faint-hearted - but if you really want to see the real Flores, this is it. You’ll need to spend at least a night in the village, and you’ll have a story to tell for life. 

Time required: 2 days

2. Transflores road trip to Kelimutu 

One of the most iconic road trips in Indonesia is this road trip into the heart of Flores island . You’ll see traditional villages, one-of-a-kind rice fields shaped like spiderwebs in Ruteng, and end at Kelimutu , a volcano with three crater lakes of different colours. Life moves much more slowly in Flores and you’ll get a welcome respite from city life. Even Labuan Bajo will feel hectic compared to the rest of Flores!

This is not for everyone, but if you like seeing places that few other travellers will ever get to see and experience authentic Indonesia culture, you should definitely do this. We're still craving the incredibly yummy babi sei we had during our road trip!

Time required: 4-5 days. 

Practical Tips

1. best time to go .

Chances are you’re visiting Labuan Bajo because of Komodo National Park. If so, you’d want to avoid January to March which is rainy season, and where few boats will go out due to the risk of capsizing. The only boat trips that tend to go out during rainy season are the 1 day speedboat trips, and even those sometimes get cancelled.

Try to also avoid Indonesia public holidays when Komodo National Park will be crazy packed. 

2. Getting to Labuan Bajo 

• By Flight: You’ll need to fly into Komodo airport in Labuan Bajo. There are multiple direct flights a day from Bali and Jakarta, 1.5-2.5 hours’ flight time depending on where you fly in from. Word is that direct flights will start from Singapore sometime in 2024!
• By Boat: There's no boat from Bali to Labuan Bajo, but you can take a boat trip from Lombok to Labuan Bajo via the Komodo Islands. 

3. Getting Around

• From Airport to Town: Komodo airport is about 15 minutes drive from Labuan Bajo town centre, and you can easily get a taxi, motorbike or scooter from the airport.
• Around Town: Getting around Labuan Bajo town is easy. Labuan Bajo is a small town so unless you’re staying in the Plataran or the Ayana Komodo which are further out of town, you can basically walk everywhere (e.g. the fish market, the main harbour, the main street) in 20-30 minutes.

3. Planning Your Itinerary

If you’re coming to Labuan Bajo from Singapore / outside of Indonesia, we’d recommend spending at least a week in Labuan Bajo .

With one week, you’ll get to see Komodo National Park and some of Labuan Bajo. With two weeks, you’ll get to see the rest of Flores Island, including the iconic tri-coloured Kelimutu volcano .

 If you only have a week:

• Day 0: Arrive at Labuan Bajo
• Day 1-3: Spend 3 days 2 nights on an island hopping trip around Komodo National Park.
• Day 4: Try diving ! Honestly one of the best things you can do in Komodo.
• Day 5: Day trip in Labuan Bajo to see Rangko Cave, Batu Cermin and Sylvia Hill for the views. Or visit Melo village if you prefer culture.
• Day 6: Fly out.

If you have 2 weeks, you can do the itinerary above, plus a 4-5 days road trip across Flores to Kelimutu volcano. If you’re feeling super adventurous, you can also do a 2 day trip to Wae Rebo after Labuan Bajo.

Top Tip: You’ll need to arrive in Labuan Bajo one day before the boat trip because flights arrive in the late morning, after all the boat trips have departed for the day. One day speedboat trips depart at 5-6am whereas the liveaboard boat trips depart at 10am. 

4. Top Tips on Choosing a Boat Trip

Not going to lie - choosing a Komodo boat can be pretty confusing! Here are the basics:

• There are 3 types of boats: Phinisi (3-4 star hotel standard), Basic (hostel-like) or Speedboat . 
• The Phinisi boats will usually only do 3D2N trips , and depart only on Fridays. The Basic boats will do 2D1N departing daily or 3D2N trips departing on Fridays. The speedboats will only do 1 day trips, and depart daily. 
• So choose your boat depending on when you arrive, and what level of comfort you’d like! 
• Note that if you’re in Komodo during rainy season (Jan - Mar), you’ll likely only have a choice of speedboats . The 2D1N basic boat trips get cancelled frequently during this time and the 3D2N phinisi boats won’t go out due to safety concerns. 

For more tips, check out our Komodo Islands cheat sheet here.

5. How to Book a Komodo Boat Trip

You can book a boat trip in advance or when you get to Labuan Bajo with a boat agent on the main street. Note that the main street usually only has basic boats left at the last minute -  so if you’re looking for a nice phinisi liveaboard you would need to book in advance. 

We’d also caution that there are many basic boats in Labuan Bajo with dodgy safety standards, and there are several incidents of boats sinking each year. So please do your research in advance and book from a reputable company! We have handpicked the best boats in Komodo here.

6. What to Expect in Labuan Bajo

• Infrastructure: While Labuan Bajo has become more developed in recent years, street lamps were only introduced as recently as 2022! So it is not as developed as some other Indonesian cities, and certainly decades behind Denpasar’s infrastructure.
• Safety: It's a really safe town, and we wouldn't feel unsafe walking around after dark as solo female travellers. We felt as safe here as we do in Bali - so just keep your wits about you and you'll have nothing to worry about.
• Service Levels: The working culture here is much more laid-back than Bali. Expect that pick-up will be late, and service may be slow. People in the service industry speak basic English but don’t expect Bali levels by any means.
• Food: The quality of restaurants here is pretty high for a small town. You can expect some great Italian and other Western restaurants, and hidden warungs where you can try Flores’ yummy babi sei (smoked pork and rice).

Komodo National Park

Flores is one the most fascinating and beautiful island, located in the southern part of Indonesia in East Nusa Tenggara province.

Geographically, Flores is part of Indonesia’s Lesser Sunda Islands. From west to east the main Lesser Sunda Islands are Bali, Lombok, Sumbawa, Flores, Sumba, Timor, Alor archipelago, Barat Daya Islands and Tanimbar Islands.

Long hidden in the shadows of its more famous neighbor  Bali , the island of Flores is finally emerging as a unique destination of its own.

So, after visiting the lair of the  Komodo dragons , take time to marvel at some of the wonders of Flores. Here, you can swim in pristine lakes and waterfalls, dive at one of the 50 spectacular dive sites, go kayaking among craggy coasts and mangrove shores, explore mysterious caves and be warmly welcomed by the island’s people in their rituals, dances and daily life.

Find some of the world’s most exotic underwater life, dive in the pristine seas of Komodo, or swim along with huge manta rays, dolphins, and dugongs on the island of Flores!

One of several histories of the name “Flores” was said to come from Tanjung Bunga, a sub-district in East Flores. In the 1500s a Portuguese navigator António de Abreu reach this place and saw blooming flowers all over the island.

Then came S.M Cabot who described this place as Cabo das Flores, translated as the cape of flowers.

In 1636 Hendrik Brouwer, the Dutch Indies Governor General validated Flores as the official name for the Island.

Flores also was known as Nusa Nipa, or the Snake Island. The name was said to depict due to the shape of the island, the fact that Flores is a habitat for snakes and the ancient belief that the snake was the ancestor of the island.

There are 8 major ethnic groups in Flores, namely the Manggarai, Riung, Ngada, Nage-Keo, Ende, Lio, Sikka and Larantuka.

There are also 8 regencies in Flores: West Manggarai, Manggarai, East Manggarai, Ngada, Nagekeo, Ende, Sikka and East Flores.

Labuan Bajo is the capital of West Manggarai, the gateway to many splendors of Flores.

Here, you can discover exotic wildlife on land and beneath the ocean’s waters.

Nagakeo is famous for Pulau Pasir Putih Rii Taa, a pristine pearly white-pinkish sandy island located just around an hour boat ride from the Marapokot harbor in Mbay city.

• Umesh_Chhazzed 0 contributions 4.0 of 5 bubbles Good cruise & v organised company Our host was the highlight. His sense of humor was outstanding. We don’t know his real name, could be Carlos or some guy from Columbia 😊. The islands are simple mind blowing. Six locations & each had something unique to offer. The coral sightings are simply outstanding. So close to the surface that the fear is of getting scrapped. V colorful. We spotted turtles, manta rays, … awesome experience. A shoutout to all the other tour members who were so friendly that by the end of the tour it felt like family members separating. Read more Written December 14, 2023

• OnwardTraveller 0 contributions 5.0 of 5 bubbles Excellent Trip These day trips are advertised all around Lubuan Bajo. It looks like RPH 1m is the real fee with else going to whoever makes the booking. Extra 300k payable on the boat for Komodo Park entrance fees. Still, absolutely worth it for the Komodos and five other stops for snorkelling swimming and hiking, over a 10 hour trip including lunch and water/coffee and the chance to also see turtles and mantas. Thoroughly recommended! Read more Written August 31, 2023
• Desdemonep 0 contributions 1.0 of 5 bubbles Terrible agencia. Como todas. Un engaña turistas más pagando un dineral. Terrible agency and excursion in general. Padar is beautiful in itself, the reefs too, but Komodo is a fraud. 2 dragons, a whole souvenir market and the so-called guides, who aren't, because they don't explain anything to you, smoking and throwing their butts into all the trees. Regrettable. This company has 2 boats, New Hope 6 and New Hope 9. 1 guy explains 4 things to you and the other 4 or 5 who go with him eat and do nothing all day. They make you go from boat to boat and in the end a girl fell between them. No one went looking for it, we had to call their attention so that they deigned to come closer. If a serious accident happened with these people, you have a really difficult time. In general, all agencies are a tourist joke. Read more Written August 11, 2023
• Amos K 0 contributions 5.0 of 5 bubbles Well run tour - excellent experience Our driver from the airport told us about this trip (we've done some research online already but wanted to see what offers were available locally). Hotel pickup and drop-off included. The actual trip was fantastic, speed boat was in great condition, the snorkeling gear as well. Hike was manageable, Pink Beach was scenic (for the IG posts), even managed to see a manta ray as well. Read more Written August 10, 2023
• Jenan2000 0 contributions 5.0 of 5 bubbles Amazing trip and lovely staff Everything was perfect from the moment I decided to book with this lovely company. Very professional and easy communication by whatsapp. The driver picked me from my hotel on time and took us to harbour. The boat was extra clean and the staff are the best I have ever seen. Very very helpful, friendly and hardworking. Always smiling and offering help. The trip itself was well organised. My kids enjoyed it as well. Perfect choice of the places and we has enough time in each place. I can’t thank the staff enough….Guys….You are the best. Thank you for making my Komodo visit very memorable with you. Eastcruise are the best and special thank you for our staff in Gold Torino boat from the guide to the sweet lady who was with the staff. She was so sweet, helpful and very kind. For everyone who reads my review, don’t hesitate to book with Eastcruise. Read more Written August 7, 2023
• SamMcGmum 0 contributions 5.0 of 5 bubbles Eastcruisekomodo- great day trip! Trip with Eastcruisekomodo was the highlight of our holiday! Huge shout out to our Guide Christian and the rest of the boat crew (Bayu, Ades and Dedi) who looked after us so well and for Renata for handling all my booking enquires pre-trip. We went for the private speedboat option to maximize our time. Boat arrived on time, crew worked to our itinerary and we visited Padar island, pink beach, Komodo and swam with manta rays. We were extremely fortunate to not only see a Komodo dragon up close but to actually witness 3 Komodo’s feeding - rare opportunity! Pink beach beautiful too. Padar island views from the top were amazing - but of course extremely crowded as we went in peak season. My son loved the snorkeling (- saw lemon sharks, turtles and the MantaRays!) Lunch on the boat was great too. Highly recommend Eastcruisekomodo - amazing trip! Read more Written July 20, 2023

• 272fannyg 0 contributions 5.0 of 5 bubbles Must do while in Flores Amazing day trips, lots of places to see in one day, between hiking (more than 800 steps to go up the hill but fir such a beautiful view), walking through the jungle to see the huge Komodo dragon (don’t worry the rangers are here to protect), swimming in clear water, walk in the pink sand and snorkeling among lots of fish… we’ll just look at the picture and you will understand… and thank you to the wonderful team… Read more Written June 22, 2023

• Stephen D 0 contributions 5.0 of 5 bubbles Professional & Friendly As I understand it, most speed boat tours in Komodo have the same itinerary; 6 places including Padar Island, Pink Beach, Loh Liang (Komodo dragons), Taka Makassar, Manta Point, Kanawa Island. Spectacular places. Tours start around 6am and finish 4:30pm. As a former speed boat tour operator in Thailand, the difference is in the booking process, cost, organisation, staff and boat. Booking process online was smooth. Automated email received with a voucher. They got in touch via Whatsapp to verify hotel and pickup details. Cost wasn't the cheapest I could find quoted online, but it was the cheapest online I could pay with a credit card, only 500 IDR more expensive with a better overall rating. Where you might save is the entrance fee...450k IDR for foreigners and 200k IDR for Indonesian. Other websites I saw quoting up to 1.3M IDR (the guide confirmed others pay more when paid directly to Komodo), which cause me some confusion when booking. I even Whatsapped a few operators and each sent different amounts! Organisation: Pickup was exactly on time. It didn't take long to pick up other guests. We were at the boat in 15 mins. East Cruise are one of the bigger companies, as such they're very organised directing people on to different boats, collecting outstanding balances, etc. The timing at each place on the tour was perfect...enough time to do stuff with it being too short or too long and waiting around. The guides had good command of tourists and directed them well. Staff: all super friendly, helpful and knowledgeable, even the taxi driver Boat: exactly as you see in the photos...one lower deck with 2x2 and 2x3 seating, with an upper deck. They're clean, comfortable, reasonably spacious. Equipment is decent and in repair. Overall a highly pleasant experience Read more Written May 15, 2023
