Manjarite Island, Perfect Snorkeling Spot




Manjarite Island is an inhabitant island within Komodo National Park. It is one of the perfect snorkeling spots. The beautiful beach combines white sandy beaches and crystal clear water make this place become the favorite destination.

If you love taking pictures, a long wooden jetty is the best place. You can also jump down the water from the jetty. One of the best places to hang out on your Komodo holiday trip.

The island is not so touristic, so you are free to explore the snorkeling area the longer you can. Colorful fish such as dory fish and angelfish are found here. You will also find beautiful untouched corals.

Getting to Manjarite Island

Manjarite Island is close to mainland Flores Island. It takes about 35-40 minutes by boat from Labuan Bajo, depending on the sea condition. A reminder that there are no flights going direct to the island. So you need to get on the boat from Labuan Bajo to the Island.

Here is how to get to the island:

  • Book a day tour from Labuan Bajo to Komodo. The day tour is preferred if you only have a short time. You can use a speedboat or the Phinisi boat. We suggest booking a private tour as there is no shared tour running to the island.
