Set in East Nusa Tenggara, Indonesia, this UNESCO World Heritage Site is described as offering one of the most unique sights in the world, where from the Padar Island viewpoint you see three giant bays of white, black and pink sand in a single frame, all crested by rocky hills in a landscape that feels straight out of Jurassic Park. It has lovely pink beaches perfect for sinking your toes into, sandbars ringed by gin-clear waters, and it’s home to the iconic Komodo dragons themselves. Snorkelling and diving are considered absolute musts here, with reefs that promise vibrant fish and technicolour corals, and joining a boat tour is recommended as the best way to properly explore both the islands and the surrounding marine park. - Liv Kelly
