Jakarta, Indonesia Sentinel — Labuan Bajo, a breathtaking gateway to Indonesia’s Komodo National Park, offers year-round natural beauty. However, choosing the right time to visit can enhance the travel experience, depending on what visitors seek, whether it’s cultural festivals, wildlife encounters, or underwater adventures.

Labuan Bajo, a hidden gem in eastern Indonesia, serves as the gateway to one of the world’s most extraordinary natural wonders. Located in Komodo District, West Manggarai Regency, East Nusa Tenggara Province, this picturesque village is separated from West Nusa Tenggara by the Sape Strait.

This stunning destination is the entry point to Komodo National Park, home to the legendary Komodo dragons—prehistoric reptiles found exclusively on Komodo and Rinca Islands. Beyond its famous wildlife, the area boasts breathtaking landscapes, pristine beaches, and a vibrant underwater ecosystem teeming with marine biodiversity.
