Taka Makassar – Stunning Sandbank in the Middle of the Sea

Taka Makassar is a tiny crescent-shaped sandbank surrounded by turquoise waters in Komodo National Park. It only appears during low tide, making it a surreal and fleeting destination that feels like paradise.

Highlights

• White sandbar surrounded by crystal-clear water
• Perfect for drone photography and relaxing barefoot
• Easy snorkeling around the shallow reef nearby

Travel Tips

• Wear reef-safe sunscreen and bring a waterproof bag
• Best visited early morning or late afternoon for best light
• Often included in Private Speedboat Tours and 3D2N Komodo Adventures

Note: As it's a sandbank, there are no facilities—plan accordingly and always bring water and sun protection.
