The Lombok to Komodo boat trip is a 4 days 3 nights one-way shared phinisi crossing from Kayangan Harbour in East Lombok to Labuan Bajo, calling at Kenawa, Saleh Bay and Satonda before Komodo National Park. Our reservations desk answers the Lombok question most days, and the answer usually improves the trip. The desk's standing advice to guests writing from Lombok or the Gilis is to fly via Bali (Bali to Komodo Airport is 1 hour 20 minutes) and start in Labuan Bajo, where you are inside the park 30 minutes after leaving the harbour. All our vessels are based in Labuan Bajo for your safety and comfort. The crossing spends roughly two of its three nights on open water past Sumbawa, the least predictable weather on the route, for about one full day inside the park. From Labuan Bajo you get three full days inside the park for the same holiday time. The crossing itinerary, cabins and dates follow below.

Shorter on time? The 4D3N route compresses into a 3-day Komodo cruise from Lombok on request: an overnight passage via Moyo and Satonda, then a full Komodo National Park day — Padar viewpoint, Pink Beach and the dragon trek — before disembarking in Labuan Bajo. Ask the desk for current 3-day departures and USD rates.
The Lombok to Komodo boat trip is a 4D3N phinisi cruise sailing from Lombok into Komodo National Park via Moyo, Satonda and Saleh Bay, with open-trip cabins published at USD 425–755 per person. The route adds what Labuan Bajo departures cannot — Satonda's crater lake, Kenawa's hills and swimming with Saleh Bay's whale sharks — before finishing with Padar, Pink Beach and the dragons.
Sailing the opposite direction is covered by the Komodo to Lombok boat trip, and a gentler coastal variant by the Lombok to Flores crossing — all departures sit in the Lombok tour packages hub. If you would rather start in Labuan Bajo, the Komodo open trip 3D2N or a longer Komodo sailing trip covers the park itself.
