Komodo Island’s eponymous dragons are a magical, almost otherworldly sight. The world’s largest reptile, with dinosaur-like scales and yellow forked tongues, Komodo dragons can grow up to three metres long and watching these magnificent beasts as they lumber across the beaches of Komodo is an experience of a lifetime. Visit the island with a guide and explore the trails that cross the island to spot the vast lizards as they lie camouflaged against the dusty ground.
