Komodo in Komodo National Park, West Manggarai, East Nusa Tenggara, was indeed free life. Tourists visiting the island of Rinca and Komodo can be seen directly without any hitch home. Rinca and Komodo Island is included in the Komodo National Park and a "home" for the komodo.

Therefore, tourists should be cautious when visiting the Park, especially given the beasts and komodo are cannibals. Komodo eyesight is bad. However, hearing and smell are very sharp.


Previously, the forest ranger or police officer will explain briefly about the komodo and regulations must be adhered to the tourists. After that, visitors can select the desired distance trekking. Can short-range, medium and long term. Here are a few things to consider when traveling to Komodo National Park:

Walking in the party. When trekking, stay in the group because of komodo attacking prey alone.

"Ranger" as a guide. Never far away from the ranger who act as guides. Ranger is experienced in dealing with Komodo. Generally, ranger armed with a wooden stick with a forked tip. This stick serves to banish komodo.

Do not make sudden movements. Komodo usually calm if there are people passing by, the origin is not disturbed. One is a sudden movement. Therefore, do not run. The reason this movement can actually make you chase komodo.

If pursued komodo? Run in a zig-zag. Komodo can not run in a zig-zag, and he will turn adversity. However, do not underestimate the speed of Komodo. He was able to run 18 kilometers per hour.

Climbed to higher ground. If pursued Komodo, come up to the house on stilts that are near you. Generally, buildings in this area such as a house built in the form of the stage. With this, Komodo will have difficulty climbing stairs. However, be careful because Komodo like shelter under the building. Do not go up into the tree because Komodo aged one to two years of good climbing trees. Komodo age is forced to climb a tree to avoid adult komodo. Komodo is a beast that can eat cannibal Komodo weaker than himself.

Like the chameleon, silence is deceptive. Beware when walking. The figure of Komodo when nap briefly as dust or dry wooden stick. It could, accidentally, you step on the Komodo. If you see Komodo in a careless position, be careful. He is clever trick. In no standby position, he was actually waiting for unsuspecting prey.

Do not noisy and do not use perfume. Komodo has a keen hearing and smell. Therefore, be quiet while in the group. In addition, several ranger also advised not to wear perfume because it is too pungent smell can lure Komodo.

Women who are menstruating. Komodo is very sensitive to the smell of blood. If he smells blood, he will instinctively look for prey. Therefore, women who are menstruating should report to the ranger. This needs to be on guard ranger. Women who are menstruating should keep doing trekking. However, it should not be at the beginning of menstruation or are high.

Do not start a fire. This area is very dry and barren. Therefore, do not smoke or light a fire. A particle of fire can lead to fires in the region. These islands are vulnerable to fire hazards.

Use appropriate clothing. Cotton clothing that absorbs sweat it is advisable to wear when trekking. The sun is very hot and dry air here, too. Use a sunblock and a hat too. There is a good idea to wear long pants and long sleeves. To make it easier when walking, use the mountain sandals and sports shoes.

Buy souvenirs on the island Komodo. If you really want to buy souvenirs, you should buy on the island Komodo. Besides being more diverse than in Labuan Bajo, the price is cheaper. Make your event buy souvenirs on the agenda shall be as this can help the local economy. You can buy a Komodo-shaped wooden sculpture in various sizes, pearl necklace, and other wood carvings.

Bring a camera. Objects that must be taken of course the camera. Do not hesitate to bring a tripod and a telephoto lens because you want to photograph not only Komodo, but also the view from the heights, rare birds and other wildlife. If you have one, bring a waterproof camera also can be used in deep water. While visiting the island Komodo, do not feel complete if no snorkeling and diving.(kompas)

Bored with sloping beach without a challenge? Pay a visit to the beach Suluban in southern Bali.

Southern tip of Bali is an area of ​​rugged hills with high character. For example, Uluwatu, Pecatu, and Jimbaran. This altitude region met with the beach. So, be a beach with high cliffs that bring not only beauty but also a challenge for travel lovers.


There are several choices in southern Bali beach challenging this. Among other Pecatu Beach, Padang-padang, Suluban, Bali Cliff, Timbis, and so on.

Locals call this place the actual name of Uluwatu Beach. The reason, this beach is located in the Pura Luhur Uluwatu, one of the major temples in Bali. However, many prefer the name of this beach by name Suluban beach. There is also a beach called Blue Point, referring to one of the hotel's name in this region.

Suluban comes from Bali "Mesulub" which means "to run or pass under something".
Suluban beach named, because visitors who want to get there must pass through a rock cave on the coast before finally reaching a broad, white sandy beaches with tourists roar of the waves of fun for surfers.
Coastal sea water is very clear and the waves are high, so it is best known beach among surfers. In the afternoon, we could see a beautiful sunset view.

Pura Uluwatu can be most easily if you want directions to this beach. The first person to Suluban just follow the road from Uluwatu Jimbaran direction with the distance of 30-45 minutes.

Just before the entrance of the Pura Uluwatu, there is a fork to the right. This road to the two locations, namely Suluban beach and Padang-padang beach. There are very clear directions with the names of two of the beach. So, do not hesitate get lost.

As with other beaches in Bali, do not have to pay if you get this beach. Only, pay Rp 3,000 parking is also expensive, especially without proof of payment. But, oh never mind. Think of it as charity to the locals who guard the coast.

The beach is about 200 meters from the parking lot down the street is a pretty skewed. However, the stairs allow visitors who pass through. After descending the stairs along approximately 50 meters, visitors still have to go down the stairs again with narrower and smaller.

Once past these steps, we arrived at the beach.

Swaying reef

But this is not the sort of gently sloping Sanur Beach or Kuta Beach. These beaches surrounded by coral reefs. The place where we are now getting out besieged coral caves formed by the strong waves here. From the beach with these tough spear, the surfer out to sea with the board to ride waves surfingnya.

The attraction is not just a beach Suluban this coral caves. Among the rocks about 10 meters tall, there are stairs up to the other. Because of the narrowness of the stairs, then have to queue if these stairs. Need an extra effort to pass this staircase.

However, the extra effort will pay off when it is on the rocks. Seen extending from the blue waves on the reef. Fun anymore on top of these cliffs there is a permanent huts for the visitors. So, visitors can enjoy the blue seas, chasing the waves he cried, and noisy sea by dozens or even hundreds of surfers with a roof over their heads.

In fact there is one coral sundeck chairs like in Kuta or Sanur. In fact, when I was here a year ago, on top of one of rock's still empty. Apparently, Suluban continues to grow.

Standing on the reef itself also caused a sensation when big waves hit the reef. Waves about 20 feet below the height of the coral reef is like a shake.

On top of this rock also, we could see the cliffs on the left and right reefs. Meanwhile, at the back of restaurants, cafes, hotels, souvenir shops, and the like continue to multiply in an increasingly crowded by surfers and regular visitors of this.

So, to this place that we should be heading if it is complete to enjoy the waves from the reef. Here we can rest and enjoy a drink and protracted roaring waves chasing each other.
