In this tour, we will take you to Rinca and Komodo Islands to see one of the wonders of animal kingdom that survived natural selection since Jurassic era. During the trekking around the parks, you will be accompanied by a ranger who will ensure your safety (as long as you follow their instructions, of course!). After the tiring yet thrilling trekking, you can cool off at the pristine Pink Beach. It is a spectacular snorkeling spot with hundreds of coral species as home for various marine life.

Today, we will sail to Loh Liang that is the ranger’s station on Komodo Island. During the 3 and a half hours of navigation, you will realize that the sea is like a great lake dotted with hundreds of tiny islands, most of them uninhabited, or with only a few fishermen, who moor in them to rest or spend the night. Once on the island, we have to enter the office of the rangers to register and pay the national park fee. There we will be assigned a ranger who will accompany us at all times while we are inside the island.
Rangers always carry a long pole with a V-shaped tip, to make dragons keep their distance from us. They will give us a brief explanation of behavior in the park and what we can see. The dragons may sometimes make sudden moves so opening your eyes and keeping silent will always be the best advice. Watch your back as there might be also one behind you or up on the trees. The Ranger will always be leading the group, showing us all the species that he sees during the trekking.
In addition to the Komodo dragons, we can see Timor Deer, wild pigs and various types of running hens as well as sulfur cockatoos, snakes, etc.
At the end of the trek, we head back to the port and continue the cruise. After a short while, we will reach Pantai Merah (Pink Beach) where we can do snorkeling in the middle of coral reefs full of life.

It is where the species of the Indian Ocean and Pacific Ocean come together with the endemic species of Indonesia. It makes Indonesia have the largest number of underwater species in the world.
