Padar Island

Scuba Diving
Padar Island's small size belies its diversity in wildlife, with several species of sharks and manta rays making the region popular amongst scuba enthusiasts. One can also go scuba diving in the depths of the sea to explore the marine biosphere of diverse aquatic species. One must visit this particular spot for prime scuba diving experiences. There's a diving spot called 'Tiga Dara' in the south of the island, that provides a place for colourful corals and attracts the most beautiful aquatic animals.

Snorkelling
If visiting Padar Island one must have the thrilling experience of snorkelling in the beautiful crystal clear water of the Flores Sea. Since there are no accommodation facilities at Padar Island, one can camp on the mystical hills.

Hiking
The steep hills encompassing Padar Island also make for great trekking and is another thrilling experience to enjoy.

Pink, Black, White sand beaches
Padar Island is also home to three different coloured beaches. A black sand beach that gets its colour from darkly coloured minerals crushed by volcanic activity, lies next to a jaw-dropping baby pink beach. To complete the trifecta, a white sand beach is also found on Padar Island, and a trek through all three beaches is a must-do for all that visit the island.

Komodo Dragons
Fearsome Komodo dragons used to inhabit Padar Island but they've gone extinct. Nevertheless, they still exist in significant numbers in the neighbouring islands of Komodo and Rinca, so a trip to Padar Island would be incomplete without going to see these ferocious beasts.
