Location
Located off the southeast of Sulawesi Island in Indonesia.
Getting There
Fly from Jakarta to Kildari. From there your accommodation will arrange for a car for the hour and half drive to the harbour. Then an hour by private boat trip to Labengki island.
Land Adventures
Labengki offers a snorkel spot where the scenery above the water is as spectacular as below with jungle clad cliffs plunging into impossibly blue lagoons and caves waiting to be explored. Aptly named blue and green lagoons offer a surreal jungle swimming experience. On Labengki’s southern side, when the tide is right, you can wade through a cave’s gentle outflow for about five minutes to emerge in a secluded jungle lagoon—a secret oasis like no other.
Destination Drink
After a long snorkel the locals will offer you fresh coconuts plucked from the palm tree. Nothing has ever tasted so refreshing.
