Kelor Island - The Mini Padar with a Million Dollar View

Looking for the perfect Instagram spot without the hard trek of Padar Island? Welcome to Kelor Island.

Just 30-40 minutes by boat from Labuan Bajo, Kelor Island is a small, uninhabited island famous for its breathtaking 360-degree viewpoint. This is often the first stop on your Komodo National Park sailing trip, and it will set the bar high.

Why Visit Kelor Island?

1. The Iconic Hilltop Viewpoint
A short 10-15 minute hike up a slightly steep dirt trail leads you to the top. From here, you will be rewarded with a postcard-perfect panorama: turquoise bays dotted with traditional Phinisi boats, white sandy beaches, and endless ocean. It's often called "Mini Padar" because the view is just as epic but much easier to climb.

2. Pristine White Sand Beach & Crystal Clear Water
The island boasts a beautiful white sand beach perfect for relaxing. The water is incredibly clear, making it an excellent spot for swimming and snorkeling right from the shore.

3. Facilities
Kelor Island is kept natural and pristine. There are no big buildings, only a small wooden jetty, a welcome sign, and a few thatched gazebos for shade. This is raw island beauty at its best.

How to Get There:
Kelor Island can only be reached by boat as part of a Komodo Island Hopping Tour. Most 1-day, 2-day, and 3-day sailing trips from Labuan Bajo include Kelor Island combined with Manjarite, Rinca, and Kalong Island.

Travel Tips:
Wear trekking sandals or shoes for the hike, bring sunscreen, drinking water, and your drone - this is one of the best drone spots in Labuan Bajo! Always check weather conditions and follow your guide's instructions for snorkeling.

Add Kelor Island to your Labuan Bajo itinerary and experience the best sunset in Komodo National Park!
