Bidadari (means angle in Bahasa Indonesia) is the closest island with white sandy beach from Labuan Bajo. It takes only 20 minutes by local boat from the harbor. Spending half day upon arrival from plane is best recommended to visit this island rather than staying at hotel. It offers great impression on your first day in Flores. The beach is not the best one in Komodo Flores but it should bring you into a calm relaxation and can breathe with totally fresh air. Laying down on the beach or swimming/snorkeling around are just way beyond your imagination after leaving your hustle city with lots of air pollution. Jorge Lorenzo, the world moto GP champion was once here for beach foot ball with his friends. He really enjoyed the beach and the snorkeling.
Tour to this island should be just a short visit. This is because the beach area is relatively small and often crowded with visitors. On your overnight trip, this island can be put into your last day itinerary before returning to town of Labuan Bajo.
