rinca-islandBesides the Komodo island which considured to be the new 7 wonders of the world we also know Rinca.This island is famous for komodo dragons, giant lizards that can measure up to three metres (9.8 ft) long. The Komodo is the native notable in Rinca besides wild boar and buffalo and different species of birds. It less known and visited which makes Rinca a great place to watch the komodo in their natural envirenment. However, now many people like going to Rinca because the distance from Labuanbajo is a little bit shorter rather than go to komodo island itself.The Labuanbajo city has developed and keep continue to increase all the infrastucture,this city has so many potential for tour and travel.

What become the most interesting part of course you can see the komodo right in their envirenment.How they fight each other,hunting prey. Rinca island a lot easier for people to see the Komodo  because the land is quite straight making eyes easy enough to see Komodo around.Not like other island ,Rinca is alot more like arid land,however it will green a bit when the rainy season comes.You can find more than 1300 Komodos on the island ,fortunately there are rangers which will guide anyone who wants to see the uniqueness of Rinca or even exploring the area like desert,beach,vegetation.You can see many bones and skulls of the komodo’s favourite snack like buffalo and wild boar.Well, it’s kinda scary but that’s the Komodo’s life and uniqueness wonders nature.Just make sure to capture all the view with your camera,but don’t get to close with the dragon  :D
