The full route, north and back

In short

Seven days is the shortest route that reaches the north of the park and still leaves room to do nothing. It is also where the executive recovery bookings sit.

  • Castle Rock and Batu Bolong, tide permitting
  • Two beach practices on uninhabited bays
  • A Wim Hof session with optional ice immersion

Day by day

Six documented days and a flexible tail. The crew rebuilds the order each week around the currents.

01

Day 1 · Labuan Bajo gateway

Transfer from Komodo Airport, boarding, gear fitting and the first briefing. The boat sails that evening.

02

Day 2 · Rinca and Padar

Ranger-guided walk among the dragons, then the Padar ridge at the good hour for the three-bay view.

03

Day 3 · Pink Beach and mantas

Beach practice on the foraminifera sand, then Manta Point at the right state of the tide.

04

Day 4 · Secluded coves

Bays a larger vessel cannot enter, and the depths off them. A slower day either side of the diving.

05

Day 5 · Kalong at dusk

Marine sites through the day, then the flying foxes leaving the Kalong mangroves as the light goes.

06

Days 6-7 · North, then back

Castle Rock and Batu Bolong when the tide allows, a last beach practice, then the return leg to Labuan Bajo.

Days six and seven are held flexible on purpose: the northern dive sites are the most tide-dependent on the route, and forcing them into a fixed slot is how they get missed.

Fourteen-day journeys and full private charters are arranged on request, including executive recovery groups taking the whole boat.

On the longer route

What only the seven-day includes

The additions are not extra stops. They are the things that need more days than they take.

Ice immersion

A full Wim Hof session with optional cold exposure, which needs a rest day either side of it.

Castle Rock

The northern site, run only when the current window opens. Certified divers only.

Beach practice

Two sessions on uninhabited bays, reachable only because the boat is already up there.

Integration call

A follow-up session a few weeks after you are home, to keep what changed.
