About Komodo
Komodo: Gateway to Indonesia's Dragon Country
Komodo sits in East Nusa Tenggara, Indonesia, between the islands of Sumbawa and Flores within the Lesser Sunda Islands. The area is best known as the access point for Komodo National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site established in 1980 that protects the world's largest living lizard — the Komodo dragon (Varanus komodoensis), which can reach 3 metres in length. The park spans roughly 1,733 sq km across three major islands: Komodo, Rinca, and Padar.
Where to Stay and Getting Around
Most travellers base themselves at Labuan Bajo, the port town on the western tip of Flores, which serves as the primary gateway. Liveaboard boats and day-trip ferries depart from Labuan Bajo's harbour to reach Komodo Island in approximately 2–3 hours. Accommodation ranges from guesthouses near the harbour to mid-range resorts along the coast. Hotel options in the broader Komodo area number under 50 properties.
Practical Tips
- Best season: Visit April to December; seas are calmer and dragon sightings more reliable on dry trails.
- Entry fees: Komodo National Park requires a permit; fees changed in 2023, so confirm current rates at the park office in Labuan Bajo.
- Getting there: Labuan Bajo Airport (LBJ) receives direct flights from Bali (Ngurah Rai) in roughly 1 hour 20 minutes.
- Health: Pack reef-safe sunscreen — the park enforces marine conservation rules across its coral-rich waters.
