Indonesia travel destinations include Indonesia’s Komodo Dragons a like a surreal experience in Jurassic Park. The Komodo National Park protects this largest reptile species on earth and offer tours to see them in their habitat. Also, the dramatic setting of these islands and coral reefs is where visitors dive, snorkel and hike. As an Acupuncturist-at-Sea, I spent a day at these exotic reptile and love sharing my experience and tips.
Komodo Dragons aka the Komodo monitor is the largest species of lizard on earth, found in the Indonesian islands, Komodo, Flores, Rinca and Gil Motang. These creatures grow in lengths up to 3 metres long and run up to 30 km/hour. They dominate their ecosystems and ambush their prey, including mammals and birds. Also, their bite is venomous and they (although rarely) attack humans.
Komodo National Park protects these reptiles and available for tours up close and personal with guides. This park is one of the New 7 Wonders of Nature and there’s a lot more to it than just the Komodo Dragons. It’s also part of the Coral Triangle with some of the most biodiverse marine life in the world. Therefore, visitors also come here for diving and snorkeling. Additionally, the neighboring Flores Island is renown for its epic hiking and views of lush green mountains and turquoise harbors.
