Taka Makasar
A sandbar that rises in the middle of the sea is perfect for taking photos with the blue sea in the background from all directions, especially when the tide is low.
Manta Point
One of the best spots in the world to see manta rays in their natural state. Follow the crew's directions regarding currents and never chase or touch the mantas.
Padar Island
The most iconic destination, with sunrise trekking to the top of the hill, which showcases three colorful bays. Bring drinking water and a small flashlight, as the climb begins before sunrise.
