Positioned only a few degrees south of the equator in the Indonesian archipelago,
Komodo National Park has become one of the hottest dive locations in the world. But this isn't your typical tropical paradise!
The islands that make up Komodo National Park were formed by ancient volcanic activity making them
rugged, arrid, and inhospitable to flora and fauna.
The park has long been known as the
home of the largest monitor lizard in the world, the fierce Komodo dragon. Yet it is the prolific marine
environments that surround Komodo National Park that have captured the attention of scientists and divers
worldwide. Pristine reefs teaming with incredibly diverse marine life and extraordinary beauty woos divers
to explore the park's underwater, biological treasures.
This CoralRealm guide features information intended to introduce you to the unique diving and the diverse marine
life found in the Komodo National Park region. You'll also find information to help you decide if this destination
should be on your diving "to do" list! We hope you enjoy the resources we've provided and look forward to getting
your feedback about this special feature.
