Flores is the gateway to Komodo and has its own wild Komodo dragons in the Wae Wuul reserve and around Pota in the north. Along the Trans-Flores road expect rusa deer, long-tailed macaques, water monitors, brahminy kites and Sundas pit vipers, while Riung's Seventeen Islands have a flying-fox colony that fills the sky at dusk.
Flores is 350 kilometres of volcanoes between Labuan Bajo in the west and Larantuka in the east, with Kelimutu's three coloured crater lakes near Moni as the centrepiece. It is drier and more open than Java or Bali, which makes the wildlife easier to see.
The famous animals live on the edges: Komodo dragons in the western reserves and the north coast, flying foxes and reef fish at Riung, and sperm and blue whales in the straits off the far east. Inland, the Ruteng forest and the Mbeliling hills above Labuan Bajo are where the island's endemic birds live.
Kenapa lokasi ini penting
Halaman lokasi yang baik menjelaskan kenapa tempat ini layak dikunjungi, bukan hanya nama-nama yang cocok dimasukkan ke checklist destinasi.
Flores still has wild Komodo dragons outside the national park, a population that is declining and poorly protected compared with Komodo and Rinca.
Several birds exist only on Flores and its closest neighbours, including the Flores hawk-eagle, Flores monarch and Flores crow, and the island's dry forest is being cleared for cashew and candlenut.

Tips spotting
Tips ini dibuat agar halaman ini benar-benar berguna di lapangan, bukan hanya enak dibaca di layar.
- 01Riung boat trips leave around 9 am for snorkelling and return past the flying-fox island at 5.30 pm; insist the boatman stays until the bats fly.
- 02Wae Wuul reserve is 20 km from Labuan Bajo by motorbike; register at the BBKSDA office first and take a ranger.
- 03Drive the Trans-Flores road early; macaques and deer cross before 8 am and the mist lifts off Ruteng's forest for birds.
- 04The Mbeliling hills above Labuan Bajo hold Flores's endemic birds; Puarlolo at dawn is the standard spot.

Cara memilih pemandu satwa liar lokal di Flores
- Tanyakan apa yang biasanya mereka temukan pada musim kunjunganmu. Pemandu yang baik memberi jawaban jujur, bukan janji pasti melihat satwa tertentu.
- Perhatikan cara mereka memperlakukan satwa: tanpa umpan, tanpa memanggil satwa, tanpa memegang, dan tanpa flash dari jarak dekat demi foto.
- Pastikan titik temu, durasi, ukuran grup, total harga, dan cara pembayaran sebelum hari kegiatan, termasuk izin atau biaya taman yang diperlukan.
