Day 1Sheltered water and a shallow reef — the afternoon snorkel that follows lunch aboard.

Day 2Climbed at 06:00, before breakfast. Three bays, one ridge, the best light of the day.
Day 2Crushed red coral against turquoise. Snorkel straight off the tender.
Day 2A ranger-guided trek at Loh Liang. Dragons on their own ground.

No. Manta Point and Taka Makassar sit on day two of the three-day route. The 2D1N covers Kelor, Manjarite, Kalong, Padar, Pink Beach and Komodo Island.
Published open-trip departures on Catnazse are the 3D2N. The two-day itinerary runs as a private charter, so you take the whole boat and choose the date.
Pick-up from a Labuan Bajo hotel or the airport is arranged between 08:00 and 09:00 on day one. You are back alongside in Labuan Bajo early afternoon on day two, after the Komodo Island trek and lunch aboard.
It is enough to see Padar at sunrise and meet the dragons, which is what most first-time visitors come for. It is not enough for the manta sites, and the second morning is busy.
Yes. Destinations may change depending on weather and field conditions, for your safety and comfort, and adjustments may occur in cases of force majeure.
