Sea Safari Cruises Package, Bali – Komodo – Bali “ Exploring Komodo National Park “ 7 Days/ 6 nights
Komodo is located between the islands of Sumbawa and Flores. The island is almost all
hills and barren except for palm trees and some wood but it is famous for its
giant lizards which are considered the last of their kind remaining in the world
today. To many modern naturalists, East Nusa Tenggara is so particularly interesting,
because of this unique species, called the Komodo Dragon. Called "ora" by the
local people, Komodo "dragon" (Varanus Komodoensis) is actually a giant monitor
lizard. Growing up 3 to 4 meters in length, its ancestors roamed the earth up
to about half a million years ago. Komodo is now a nature reserve being part of
a national park.
