Komodo Part 2: DRAGONS.
We head to Rinca Island for a guided walking tour in search of the legendary Komodo dragons, seeing them up close in their natural environment. From there, we join a speedboat day trip to Padar Island — one of the most photographed locations in Komodo National Park — taking in its iconic viewpoints and dramatic landscapes.
Next, we snorkel around a stunning coral cay surrounded by vibrant reefs and abundant fish life, before an unforgettable encounter swimming with manta rays in the open water.
To finish, we move to the southern anchorage of Rinca Island and dive the famous Yellow Wall, experiencing some of the wildest currents we have ever encountered.

WHO ARE WE?
Hey there! We’re Chris and Jo, an ordinary Aussie couple living our extraordinary dream aboard our Seawind 1260 since January 2019 and now we continue from 2024 aboard our new 1370!
Our adventure began with an unforgettable journey down the east coast of Australia, followed by a sail to the stunning New Caledonia. In 2020, we continued our exploration further north, and by 2021 and 2022, we circumnavigated Australia, discovering breathtaking locations along the way.
Having previously owned fishing and water-skiing boats, our passion for sailing deepened after crewing in South Australia, leading us to make the leap into full-time living at sea.
We hope to inspire you, just as we were inspired by other YouTube channels, to chase your dreams and explore the wonders of this beautiful world. Join us on our journey, and don’t forget to like, comment, and subscribe for more sailing adventures!
