Labuan Bajo — — A port-tracking page listed 15 vessels in Labuan Bajo and six arrivals in a 24-hour window on 18 September 2026, according to MyShipTracking. The same snapshot showed six departures and no expected arrivals, making it a useful operational gauge but not a full census of maritime traffic.
The page identified the port as Labuan Bajo, Indonesia, with the UN/LOCODE IDLBJ, a code also listed in the United Nations’ UN/LOCODE database for Indonesia. MyShipTracking’s snapshot showed the port’s local time as 19 September 2026 at 18:45 WITA, while the page record itself was dated 18 September 2026.
Among the movements listed in the activity table were the arrival and departure of KMP Komodo, the arrival and departure of Sabuk Nusantara 27, and activity involving Raffles One, KLM Pelita Arunika and KMP Cucut. The same page also displayed several vessels in port, including KN SAR Puntadewa, KP Kasturi, Devita R Cruise, KP Pulau Padar, KLM Sartika Mulya, KM Naira, Komodo Trails, KLM Riley, Erlina Jaya and Pinta.
What the snapshot shows
The tracker’s port summary reported 15 vessels in port, six arrivals in 24 hours, six departures in 24 hours and zero expected arrivals. The page also listed weather readings of 26.6C, wind at 11 knots from 48 degrees, pressure of 1,014 hPa, humidity of 76.3 percent and cloud cover of 89 percent.
The snapshot does not, by itself, distinguish between tourist boats, ferries, fishing craft, harbour service vessels or other small craft that may operate in the area. It also does not show passenger loads, route details or whether all local traffic was captured in the tracker’s coverage.
Context
Labuan Bajo is a recognised Indonesian port location in the UN/LOCODE system, which lists IDLBJ as the code for Labuan Bajo. In a separate recent development, Labuan Bajo’s port authorities temporarily closed sailings to Komodo and Padar earlier in September because of rough-sea conditions, underscoring how local maritime activity can change quickly with weather.
The MyShipTracking page provides a single snapshot rather than a time series, so it is best read as a moment-in-time indicator of recorded vessel movements on and around the port. For travellers, operators and investors, the figures are most useful as a directional sign of port activity, not as a definitive count of all vessels in Labuan Bajo.
