I was hoping to swim with a whale shark to mark a significant birthday. To spend a bit of quality time with my hubby and two sons, enjoy some tropical weather and Indonesian food. What I got, as we sailed from Komodo National Park to Sumbawa on board SeaTrek’s Ombak Putih, was an action-packed adventure of a lifetime. We snorkelled with manta ray, tip-toed past Komodo dragons, raced water buffaloes, and, of course, swam with a whale shark. We sailed between volcanoes, slept under the Milky Way and danced the Macarena on a remote sandy beach. In short, I got a whole lot more than I bargained for!
