How do you access Komodo National Park on both Komodo and Rinca Islands? Think...NOT EASY! There are NO public ferries.

Rinca Island receives a few more visitors than Komodo Island because it's nearest the port of Labuanbajo in Flores. Labuanbajo is the main jumping off point for trips and is recommended to charter boats from here rather than Sape.

You'll hear me repeating a common refrain in the following videos...Make sure your boat has a radio and lifejackets. Very seriously! These isolated islands are surrounded by some of the worst seas in Indonesia with rip tides, whirlpools and horrendous storms. Please don't forget to Subscribe Share and Like. Thanks.
