The Phinisi glides out of Labuan Bajo before dawn, teak deck cool under bare feet and the Flores Sea stretching like a bright, restless road. Salt air tugs at the sails while the islands of Komodo National Park awaken: mangroves murmur, cliffs stand like old guards, and the water dares you to dive in.
