Top 7 Hidden Beaches in Komodo You Can Only Reach by Yacht

Komodo National Park is home to some of the most untouched, breathtaking beaches in the world—many of which are only accessible by private yacht. When you sail with Splendour Charters, you don’t just visit Komodo—you explore the parts most travelers will never see. Here are 7 hidden beaches that will take your breath away.

1. Pink Beach (But Not the Crowded One)

Everyone knows the famous Pink Beach—but there’s a secret, lesser-known pink-sand cove just 15 minutes away by tender. Quieter, cleaner, and far more romantic, this spot glows pink at sunset and is perfect for a private picnic or snorkeling session.

2. Sebayur Kecil Island

This small island is a peaceful escape with powder-white sand and turquoise shallows, perfect for paddleboarding and swimming. The surrounding reef is teeming with marine life, making it a hidden gem for snorkeling lovers.

3. Siaba Besar

Nicknamed “Turtle City” by local guides, this spot is ideal for families and snorkelers. The shallow waters are calm and clear, offering an up-close view of turtles gliding gracefully. The nearby beach is untouched and serene—perfect for relaxing between swims.

4. Batu Monco Beach

Tucked away in the northwestern part of Komodo, Batu Monco offers crystal-clear waters and zero crowds. It’s a favorite among yacht guests for its privacy and panoramic views. The beach is surrounded by coral gardens and ideal for those who love underwater photography.

5. Kanawa Island’s Back Beach

While the main side of Kanawa gets tourist foot traffic, the back beach remains a hidden paradise. Accessible only by private yacht, this side of the island is quiet, clean, and offers spectacular snorkeling just meters from the shore.

6. Gili Lawa Laut Cove

This sheltered beach is often missed by larger tour boats. Nestled between hills and reefs, it’s the perfect place to anchor Splendour for a few hours of swimming, paddleboarding, and lounging in total isolation.

7. Mawan Island’s Sandy Spit

Imagine anchoring off a tiny island with a sandbar that appears at low tide. Mawan is famous for manta ray sightings, but its sand spit is the real secret—a dreamy photo spot with 360° ocean views and no one else around.

Why You Can Only Reach These Places with Splendour

Large cruise ships can’t access these beaches due to shallow waters and limited maneuverability. Splendour’s private size and flexible itineraries allow you to visit these hidden gems at your own pace—often with no one else in sight.
