Day 1 - 2
Adventure Awaits: Exploring Komodo National Park and Its Underwater Wonders

- You will be greeted by your Tour Leader(s) either at the airport or your hotel if you’ve arrived before the embarkation day. As you settle into your new home, we will head to our first snorkelling session of the trip.

- Go ashore searching for the fearsome Komodo dragons found only in the Komodo National Park. This is the world’s largest lizard, growing up to a length of three meters and weighing up to approximately 70 kilograms.

- Enjoy some magnificent snorkelling on some of Komodo Park’s best reefs. Snorkel at a favourite hangout of sea turtles, where we will have a chance to swim with these gentle reptiles as they cruise along the reef’s shallow water.

Day 3 - 4
Island Escapades: Discovering Pink Beaches and Volcanic Wonders

- Wake up off the coast of a beautiful uninhabited island with a beach of pure white sand with some sparkles of powdered red coral, creating the effect of a “pink beach.” We will spend the morning here, swimming, paddle boarding, and snorkelling on the beautiful coral reef that lies parallel to the beach.

- Cruise to a nearby active volcanic island where we will enjoy a unique snorkelling experience where volcanic gasses escape in the form of bubbles from the sea floor among the corals, with the metallic black volcanic sand below being home to an abundance of very interesting invertebrates.

- Spend the day at a strange and mystical volcanic island with a sunken crater lake in its centre that was filled with saltwater when the nearby Mt Tambora catastrophically erupted in 1815. Here we will swim, kayak and paddleboard on the lake.

Day 5 - 6
Majestic Encounters: Swimming with Whale Sharks and Exploring Moyo Island

- Prepare for an exhilarating opportunity to swim with whale sharks, the majestic gentle giants of the sea. These massive but harmless animals have long congregated here in the bay but now, thanks to travellers like you, we have formed a mutually beneficial alliance with the local fisherman who have their traditional small floating fishing platforms in the bay that attract the sharks. We can’t make any promises, as we don’t have these wild animals on a leash, but fingers crossed that we will see them.

- Visit the beautiful village on Moyo Island for an amazing experience. Walk to the stunning waterfall and enjoy a refreshing dip in the cool water.

Day 7 - 8
Cultural Journeys and Coral Conservation: A Day of Exploration and Celebration

- Visit a nearby active volcanic island where we will encounter a large wooden pinisi boat with the same pedigree and history as SeaTrek’s very own ships being built on the beach. Walking around this small village, get a feel for their simple way of life, chat with the locals, and maybe buy some handmade textiles as a souvenir.

- Entering the Komodo National Park again, we will go snorkelling and beachcombing. We'll have the opportunity to participate in the coral restoration program, where you will see how the corals and fish populations have grown since they were first transplanted in 2015.

- Experience one of our famous SeaTrek beach BBQs under a night sky filled with millions of stars as you feast on the fantastic local delicacies prepared by our chef, all accompanied by live musical entertainment from our talented crew.

Day 9
Cultural Farewell: Experiencing the Caci Dance and Saying Goodbye

- After breakfast on our last day, we will take you on a scenic drive towards Melo Village, where you will witness the traditional Caci dance performance. Local strongmen perform a ritual whip-fight between two rivals in which the players, each armed with a rattan shield and a whip, will try to hit each other while dancing to the rhythm of traditional acoustic instruments.

- After lunch on the boat, we will say farewell to the crew and your fellow shipmates as you disembark and continue onto your next destination.

OMBAK PUTIH
Led by Captain Jufri and a crew of 14, Ombak Putih, meaning “White Wave” in Indonesian, boasts a rich history since her keel was laid in Kalimantan in 1995, becoming operational in 1997. At 42 meters long, she is our largest vessel, accommodating up to 24 guests in 12 comfortable cabins. With approximately 400 square meters of public space across two main decks, guests can enjoy a spacious salon and both covered and open areas, perfect for relaxing, socializing, or seeking solitude.

 

KATHARINA

Led by Captain Jeffri and a crew of 12, the 38-meter Katharina is a stunning vessel that sits gracefully in the water. Originally built in 1995 in Kalimantan for commercial use, her sleek hull caught our attention with its elegant design. After a 2014 interior refit, the Katharina was transformed to honor the authenticity of traditional seafaring, blending elegance with speed as one of the few remaining original designs. Accommodating just 12 guests in six cabins, she features a salon and bar, two sun decks, and an outdoor dining area, ensuring a more intimate and personalized sailing experience.
