Nationaal Park Komodo

Komodo National Park Essentials

Komodo National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage site in the Lesser Sunda Islands, encompasses the volcanic islands of Komodo, Rinca, and Padar. It serves as the primary habitat for the Komodo dragon, the world's largest lizard. The park’s marine environment features high biodiversity within the Coral Triangle, including manta ray cleaning stations and crescent-shaped sandbars. Geological highlights include beaches with pink sands colored by red coral fragments and microscopic Foraminifera, alongside rugged savannah landscapes overlooking deep blue bays.
