Gili Lawa Darat — Sunrise Hiking & World-Class Diving
A rugged island of golden hills and turquoise bays at the northern edge of Komodo National Park — famed for its panoramic sunrise hike and some of the most thrilling drift dives in Indonesia.
Golden Hills Above a Sapphire Sea
Gili Lawa Darat sits at the northern tip of Komodo National Park, a short sail from Komodo Island. Its rolling savannah hills turn from emerald green in the wet season to burnished gold in the dry, framing sheltered bays where liveaboards anchor overnight.
The island is celebrated for two things: a short but steep hike to a ridgeline viewpoint — magical at sunrise and sunset — and the surrounding dive sites, where strong currents draw sharks, trevally and pelagics to channels like Crystal Rock and Castle Rock just minutes away.
