Flores and Komodo are two unique islands in Indonesia’s East Nusa Tenggara province (Nusa Tenggara Timur), part of the Lesser Sunda Islands. Flores is often called the “gateway” to Komodo National Park, which includes Komodo Island and numerous smaller islets. These places attract travelers with their pristine nature, rich culture, and fantastic diving opportunities.

Indonesia: the land of a thousand islands

Indonesia is the largest archipelago in the world, consisting of more than 17,000 islands and spanning three time zones. It is a country of exotic nature, breathtaking landscapes, and a rich cultural history. Here you will find mountains, tropical forests, rice terraces, countless lagoons, and beaches. Architecture and traditions vary from island to island, making every journey unique.

Natural wealth and biodiversity

Indonesia lies at the heart of the Coral Triangle, a region with the highest level of marine biodiversity in the world. It is home to:

  • • 600 species of reef-building corals
  • • 6 out of 7 species of sea turtles
  • • More than 2,000 species of reef fish

The straits around Flores and Komodo are among the best coral reef zones in the world, while on land you can encounter the famous Komodo dragons, the largest lizards on the planet.

Indonesia is home to the largest number of active volcanoes in the world — around 145. On Flores Island alone there are 17, including Mount Kelimutu, famous for its three crater lakes. Their unique colors change over time, creating a breathtaking natural spectacle.
