📍 Indonesia · East Nusa Tenggara · Komodo Island
A naturally pink-sand beach with turquoise water and marine reefs in Indonesia’s Komodo National Park.
At Pink Beach on Komodo Island, naturally rosy sand meets vivid turquoise water and rugged island hills. The beach lies within a protected national park — the color is a natural coastal phenomenon.
JAFFA tip: when booking a boat stop, distinguish Pink Beach on Komodo Island from Long Beach near Padar, two separate sites. Ask your crew to assess the currents before entering the water.
Approach the unusual pink shoreline by boat, stroll beside the surf and photograph the contrast with the sea. When conditions permit, snorkeling can reveal the reef’s marine life. A boat itinerary can combine the beach with other park islands.
Visit by boat from the Labuan Bajo area as part of a Komodo National Park trip. Verify the operator, park rules, fees and sea conditions.
Walking along the beach is generally easy; swimming and snorkeling depend on sea conditions, currents and individual ability.
Beach-stop duration depends on the operator. A multi-island visit is typically planned as a full boat day.
Indonesia’s official tourism site generally recommends April to November, subject to daily sea and weather conditions.
There is no verified universal beach schedule; check park arrangements and boat departures.
Families can enjoy the beach views and shore walk, but water activities require individual suitability checks, life jackets and active supervision. Do not presume age eligibility.
Do not take sand, shells or coral or touch the reef. Follow park and guide rules; drones require permission.
