Morning: Pick-up & Departure

Your snorkeling adventure begins with a convenient pick-up at your hotel in Labuan Bajo. Our friendly driver will transfer you to the harbor, where a comfortable boat awaits to carry you across the sparkling turquoise waters.

First Stop: Bidadari Island (Approx. 20 minutes by boat)

Our first destination is Bidadari Island, a small paradise known for its calm, clear waters and vibrant underwater life. Upon arrival, you are invited to slip into the water and discover a world of colorful coral reefs teeming with tropical fish. The gentle currents and excellent visibility make this an ideal spot for snorkelers of all levels. Take your time, explore the reef, and let the beauty of the underwater world captivate you.

Second Stop: Kanawa Island (Approx. 45 minutes by boat)

After a refreshing snorkel at Bidadari, we continue our journey to Kanawa Island, a stunning island with crystal-clear waters and a beautiful white-sand beach. Here, you are invited to snorkel in the calm, pristine waters, where you will encounter amazing coral reefs, colorful fish, and perhaps even starfish resting on the sandy seabed.

When you need a break from snorkeling, simply relax on the white-sand beach, sunbathe under the warm tropical sun, or take a peaceful stroll along the shore. Kanawa is the perfect place to pause, unwind, and soak in the serenity of island life.

Third Stop: Menjerite (Approx. 1 hour by boat)

Our final snorkeling destination is Menjerite, a world-class snorkeling spot where crystal-clear waters reveal a kaleidoscope of coral gardens teeming with marine life. This off-shore snorkeling site offers a deeper, more immersive experience, with healthy corals and an abundance of colorful fish. Slip beneath the surface and let the underwater beauty surround you—a perfect finale to your day of exploration.

Afternoon: Return to Labuan Bajo (Approx. 1.5 hours by boat)

After soaking in the beauty of Menjerite, we begin our journey back to Labuan Bajo. The return boat ride offers a chance to relax, reflect on the day’s wonders, and enjoy the sea breeze as we cruise back to the harbor.

Upon arrival at the harbor, our driver will be waiting to transfer you comfortably back to your hotel.

Your snorkeling tour ends here—but the memories of vibrant reefs, turquoise waters, and island serenity will stay with you forever.

If you have snorkeled at one of the above-mentioned spots, we will replace it with other equally beautiful locations.
