Why visit Flores
Flores offers an adventurous escape into Indonesia's wild, authentic charm and dramatic volcanic landscapes. Travelers come to experience unique natural wonders and rich cultural immersion. You can trek through lush terrain to discover the multi-colored Kelimutu Crater Lakes, explore traditional villages like Wae Rebo, or witness Komodo dragons in Komodo National Park. The island also provides excellent diving and snorkeling, particularly around the 17 Islands Marine Park, and scenic drives along the Trans-Flores Highway. It's an ideal destination for nature lovers, divers, and those seeking off-the-beaten-path experiences.
Plan your visit
Visit Flores during the dry season, from April to October, for clearer skies and better conditions for hiking and boat travel. April to June offers comfortable temperatures and lush greenery, while September to November is good for trekking after peak season. A comprehensive island exploration can take a week or even 10 days, allowing for the time-consuming travel between points; a 3-day/2-night Komodo boat tour is a common start. Most travelers arrive at Komodo International Airport (LBJ) in Labuan Bajo, usually via direct flights from Bali. You can easily combine your trip with other Indonesian islands like Bali or Sulawesi, planning your multi-city route with Nomad.
