Padar Island Beach 

You are about to enjoy the beauty of grassland and bright green mountains once you get on this island. It seems that you are entering a surreal landscape that you have never seen before. That’s why the Atlas Obscura includes Padar Island Beach as one of the 10 unique beaches.

Unique Bays

Imagine that you are visiting an island with three bays. Each bay beach has different colored sand, which is pearl white, black, and pink. White and black sand seem ordinary, but pink sand is extraordinary and it makes the bay look stunning. The pink sand is coming from the mix of crushed red coral and white sand. The leftover volcanic material becomes black sand and covers up some parts of the bay. 

Incredible Wildlife

The wildlife on this island is also incredible. The beach is the habitat of the six shark species, two types of manta rays, and a variety of reptiles. You can also meet species, such as dolphins, whales, eagles, kites, geckos, and green turtles if you are lucky. Unfortunately, you can see Komodo Dragons here because they are all gone.

Beautiful Landscape

The best way to enjoy Padar Island is by hiking to the top of Padar Island. It only takes 30 minutes to achieve the top of the Island. Trekking is another great alternative to enjoy the island. Take your time for about an hour to explore the entire island. You will see something that you have never seen in other places before.

Explore the Beauty of the Underwater

It seems incomplete if you enjoy the entire island without exploring the underwater. The beach is safe for snorkeling. The underwater scenery is incredible as the scenery of the island. Get a new experience of snorkeling on the three-colored beach.

The Best Time To Visit Padar Island

You may go to Padar Island anytime you want, but the best time is from April to June. You can also go there from September to November if you can’t go there in the beginning up to the middle of the year. The weather is great, so you can enjoy the entire island maximally.

Things You Have To Bring

As exploring other beaches, you have to bring sunscreen and sunglasses. These two items protect you from the sunlight, especially in the afternoon. As a result, you can prevent the sunburning problem and keep enjoying the holiday. Don’t forget to wear your most comfortable and durable hiking shoes to keep you comfortable while passing through the route. You may bring a hat to protect your skin from the sunlight while hiking.
