    Trekking on Padar Island is one of the highlights of any Komodo tour. After a short hike up the island’s rugged trail, you’ll be rewarded with one of the most iconic views in Indonesia — a stunning panorama of three curved bays with beaches in different colors: white, black, and pink. The trek takes about 20–30 minutes and is manageable for most fitness levels, especially with short breaks along the way. Sunrise or early morning is the best time to go, with cooler temperatures and soft golden light perfect for photos. Don’t forget your camera — this is one view you’ll want to remember!

You’ll swim among colorful reef fish, soft corals, and maybe even spot a turtle or two if you’re lucky. The pink sand, created by crushed red coral mixed with white sand, makes it a picture-perfect stop both above and below the water.
