Raja Ampat and Komodo

Holidays in Komodo

Komodo is a sparsely populated island located between Sumbawa and Flores, in the Lesser Sunda Archipelago. An endemic species of dragon lives on the island, commonly known as the Komodo dragon. This largest lizard in the world attracts visitors eager for adventure like a magnet. Komodo National Park was created to protect these endangered reptiles (PKA Balai Taman Nasional Komodo). Monitor lizards take about 5 years to reach 2 meters in length. Currently, it is estimated that only about 4500 individuals of this species live in the wild. Individual specimens can also be found on the island of Flores and other islands in the area. Some lizards can grow up to 3 meters and weigh 150 kilograms, but most of them reach about 2 meters and weigh 60 kilograms.
