Is it Safe?

Absolutely. The Komodo Islands, where we operate, provide a sheltered island group with infrequent large swells. Although there are fascinating whirlpools in certain areas, they are easily navigable. Our sea-kayaks are sleek and extremely stable, equipped with standard safety features. The Komodo Kayaking guides have extensive experience in kayaking, working in, and exploring wild places, ensuring effective risk management and emergency medical care. We have lived here our entire lives – we know the waters, and the risks. One of our Komodo Kayaking guides will always accompany you during kayaking, and we also have a support boat and radio contact with the Park Rangers office for added safety measures.

What is Sea Kayaking like?

Sea-kayaking is an incredible way to explore our home, our seas. It’s an affordable and eco-friendly activity that doesn’t require extensive training or exceptional strength. It’s not just good for your body, but also nourishes your soul. Sea-kayaking can transport you beyond civilization and into the enchanting realm where earth, sea, and sky converge.

Is Kayaking In Komodo Challenging? Do I need to be in great shape to do this?

No prior experience is needed to get started. As long as you’re in good health and possess a sense of adventure, you’ll quickly master the skills required to paddle and steer your kayak. Our experienced guides will provide an introductory lesson at the beginning of the journey and will be there to assist and ensure everyone’s safety and happiness throughout.

Is there more to do than just Kayaking - will I get bored?

The list of activities is endless! You’ll have chances to snorkel in clear waters and explore beautiful coral reefs. We’ll stop at lovely beaches where you can relax or soak up some sun, bird-watch, you will get a chance for trekking and encounter wildlife, also interact with locals. If you’re feeling adventurous, you can take a refreshing swim when we anchor the boat.

Dine under the starry sky, share stories, witness breathtaking sunsets, strum guitars, gaze at the stars, and enjoy restful sleep. You’ll find an array of experiences to cherish!

Will we be camping?

No – Camping is illegal inside Komodo National Park. Aside from the potential risks to guests, there is also the risk of fire and waste contamination, so it is not permitted. You will stay onboard our custom built kayak boat in comfort.
