Sebayor Kecil has a beautiful beach and some great coral reefs and fish population so a spot of snorkelling is encouraged. There we will have our safety briefing then a paddle around Sabayor Kecil.

Day 4: Sebayor Kecil – Wainilu (B,L,D)

After breakfast we will start paddling to Papagaran, a wonderful village perched at places over the water. It is home to people from all over the region. If the school is in, we can go visit the children. The small street that runs through this village is fascinating. You’ll see general stores, fish drying racks and local people going about their daily business. Then we will paddle to Slamet for some more snorkeling and lunch. Afterwards we paddle to Wainilu where we will camp the night. Another spectacular sunset from the top of the hill behind camp.

Day 5: Wainilu to Nusa Pimpe (B,L,D)

Early morning we will rise and paddle to the Rinca Rangers Office to look for Komodo Dragons. Rinca (pronounced Rin – cha) is the best place in the park to see the Dragons as their numbers and density are larger there. We will be shown around the park by a trained Ranger who will explain the eco-system, the Dragon’s habits, the life of other inhabitants on the island such as the Macaque, Buffalo, Deer, Tree snakes etc.After a drink at the Ranger’s Cafe’ we will start paddling north towards Nusa Pimpe off the coast of Rinca. Lunch, snorkeling and relaxing will be followed by a sunset paddle to a small mangrove island (Kaaba) inhabited by bats. This is a great sight with thousands of bats flying into the night sky for their evening meal. We will return to Nusa Pimpe to do the same.
