The Best Komodo Snorkeling Spots

Siaba Besar (Turtle City)

Siaba Besar is a snorkelers dream, with calm waters and an abundance of marine life. This shallow, protected bay is perfect for beginners or those looking for a relaxing Komodo snorkeling experience. Spotting turtles here is the highlight and sometimes snorkelers can swim among tens of them.

Pink Beach (Pantai Merah)

One of only seven pink sand beaches in the world, Pink Beach in Komodo is a must-visit spot for Komodo snorkeling. The distinctive color comes from microscopic red coral fragments mixed with the white sand. Just a few meters offshore, youll find a breathtaking coral garden teeming with colorful fish, sea turtles, and even reef sharks. It is often a popular spot when doing island hopping in Komodo.

Manta Point (Makassar Reef)

As the name suggests, Manta Point is the place to go for unforgettable encounters with the majestic Manta Rays. These gentle giants gracefully glide through the water, feeding on plankton. Although sightings are never guaranteed, your chances are high at Manta Point. Typically when we dont see Manta Rays here, we change spot and go to the nearby Mawan, the second most popular Manta spot for Komodo snorkeling.

Itinerary

Komodo snorkeling is simply spectacular. Snorkelers can endulge in seeing excellent hard and soft corals, diverse tropical marine life, and for the highlight, swimming with the majestic Manta Rays in one of the two main Manta cleaning stations at Manta Point or Mawan.

Komodo snorkeling is an ideal activity almost all year around and its one of the most popular activities for travelers in Komodo National Park. From the many of the Komodo dive sites, most of them are perfectly suitable for snorkeling as well. This makes for a good option in case your group is mixed with divers and snorkelers or planning on doing several days of Komodo snorkeling.

As an itinerary the day typicaly begins at approximately 7-8AM with a proper briefing learning the day plan and safety considerations, followed by the exciting wooden or speed boat ride out to Komodo National Park.

Return back at our Komodo Resort is at approximately 12PM after visiting 2 spots and 2PM after visiting 3 spots.
