EastJourney. Padar Island is one of the islands in
the Komodo National Park, Labuan Bajo, East Nusa Tenggara. This
island is unique for photo lovers.
Many travelers don’t want to miss taking pictures
on Padar Island, especially on the peak of Padar. Beautiful natural
scenery set against the ocean ensures that you really are standing on an
island.
You will be decorated by reeds that grow along the
hill. Usually these weeds are brown when they are dry or green when the rainy
season arrives.
In addition, the beauty of white sand along the
beach that surrounds the island will appear on your camera.
It’s just that you need to struggle to climb
towards the Padar hills. It takes enough energy to start when you get off the
boat.
You need a higking shoe to get through this
terrain like rocks, hard ground and the slope of a hill. This is a journey and
will pay off with the beauty of this place when you arrive.
What you get there is a beauty of yourself that
blends with nature where you seem to only stand on a small island.
Maybe this is somewhat different from the term no
man is island. The island is only alone but you are not. There are many people
around you. They are also waiting in line, so after the fun photo, also think
about the other guests.
You can also feel that how you yourself become an
island.
How to get to Padar Island
There are several ways to the island of Padar.
First, you can go through Labuan Bajo where the tourists start their trip in

agent who serves tours to Komodo Island.
You will go by ship to Padar. After getting off
the boat your trip isn’t finished. You still have to trek to the top of the
hill for about 15 minutes, when you reach the top.
This is where you stand to feel the sensation of
how to set foot on an island.
