Categories : Adventure - Sightseeing - Diving and Snorkeling
By far, this is the best snorkeling experience in my life! Komodo National Park is not only notable as the natural habitat for the endangered Komodo dragons, it has an amazing underwater scenery so awe-inspiring that, in my opinion, no world-class oceanarium can rival. It's a bliss that we are living in the tropics of pristine coral reefs and beautiful islands of crystal clear waters. Komodo island isn't all about the mean, ferocious dragons that spurt no fire, on...
