Workation in Labuan Bajo: the essentials

Labuan Bajo is the harbour town on the western tip of Flores and the gateway to Komodo National Park. Government investment has turned it from a fishing village into a compact tourism hub with a marina, a growing number of cafés and dive operators, a couple of coworking spaces and boutique hotels on the hills above the bay. It is more expensive than the rest of Flores, sometimes Bali-level for anything imported, and monthly rentals are limited to guesthouses and villas rather than apartments. Internet is patchy: fibre exists in newer hotels, but power cuts and slow mobile data are common, so confirm speeds before committing. The payoff is world-class diving with manta rays, liveaboard trips and dry-season sunsets from July to October; the wet season from December to March is hot and quiet. Direct flights reach Bali in about 90 minutes and Jakarta in under three hours.
