Komodo in October — Full Picture

October is late dry season and typically the hottest stretch of the year, with highs around 33°C and only a hint of returning rain (around 20mm). Seas are calm, boats reliable, and underwater visibility excellent — overall some of the best all-round conditions of the year.

Crowds are moderate and prices sit in the shoulder range, making October another strong choice for travellers who want great weather without peak-season costs. The Padar sunrise is dependable and diving is at its best.

The main thing to respect is heat. This is the most intense month for daytime temperatures, with extreme UV and bone-dry, brown islands offering little shade — the early-morning Padar climb and dragon treks are far more pleasant before the midday sun.

Start days early, hydrate hard, and October delivers excellent, uncrowded Komodo conditions before the wet season returns toward month's end.

What to Wear & What to Pack

Late dry season, the hottest stretch — around 33°C/24°C, very sunny. Light clothing, strong sunscreen, hat, sunglasses, rash guard and lots of water.
