LOMBOK
TO KOMODO NATIONAL PARK AND FLORES
SAILING ADVENTURE TRIP
07
Days 06 Nights
GENERAL INFORMATION
Lombok At a Glance:
Less developed than Bali, Lombok has better beaches, a
bigger volcano and more varied landscapes. Tourism is still low key,
and many visitors are independent travellers drawn by the island's
intoxicating diving and snorkelling, hiking and surf spots, as well
as Lombok's intriguing endemic culture.
Moyo
Island AT Glance:
Moyo Island, at the mouth of Saleh Bay, has a nature reserve with
wild oxen, deer, wild boars and a great variety bird species. Visits
are best made during the dry season from June through August. A few
kilometers of the north coast of Sumbawa,
Komodo
and Rinca Islands At Glance:
Located 300 miles east of the cultural
center of Bali, Komodo Island is a remote, seemingly prehistoric
part of the sprawling island nation of Indonesia. This portion of
the Island Dreams' web site is dedicated to exploring Komodo
National Park and the Komodo Island region, both above and beneath
the waves. Our guides and resources for this adventure will be some
of the world's experts on Indonesia and its diving. They include
author Kal Muller, scientist/researcher Dr. Gerald Allen, dive
leader extraordinaire Larry Smith, and Secret Sea Visions
photographers Burt Jones and Maurine Shimlock.
Home to a wild population of more than 5,000 Komodo Dragons, a
topside walking tour of Komodo Island National Park is an experience
like none other. The smell of the sun-baked earth and the strange
cooing sounds of the exotic, flightless magapode birds will stay
with you for years after. Walking in the dry river bed, you can view
the dragons' cave like liars, keeping an eye out for marauding
individuals approaching from the jungle. Excitement mounts as you
approach the dragons' "feeding station," where your accompanying
Park Ranger may have to fend off the curious (hungry?) dragons with
his stout wooden staff. The chance to view and photograph these
remarkable and frightening creatures, literally face to face, is an
experience the traveler will not soon forget.

Flores island at Glance:
Flores is 360 km wide and varies in width
from 12 to 70 kilometers. It's an island with impressive volcanoes,
nice mountain lakes, grassy savannahs and even some mountain forest.
The landscape has a fierce beauty. Nevertheless Flores is one of the
least visited islands in Indonesia.
