Komodo National Park is the only place in the world of ancient animals that live Komodo dragons.

Komodo National Marine Park is a unique marine sanctuary created by strong currents and upwellings that transport nutrient-rich waters throughout the park supporting a cornucopia of bio diversity. The Komodo National Marine Park is the Southern-most boundary of Wallacea (the transitional area for the flora and fauna of Asia and Australia) and offers truly legendary diving. The Komodo region has everything from majestic mantas, schooling jacks, barracudas and tuna to pigmy seahorses, nudibranchs, ghostpipe fish, and crustaceans galore. Scuba divers often encounter a new species while diving in the Komodo National Park.

Mangrove forests, seagrass beds, and pristine coral reefs are among the most important habitats at the Komodo National Park. Komodo offers world class scuba diving in a staggering variety of sites with walls, coral gardens, pinnacles, drop offs as well as quiet bays and inlets for macro photographers seeking rarely seen critters.
The The Nature Conservancy has recorded an estimated 1000 fish species, 260 reef building coral species and 70 sponge species in the Komodo National Park with a particularly high number of Tubipora musica (organ pipe coral) accounting for the famous pink sand beaches around the park. Turtles and marine mammals frequent Komodo's waters with occasional whale sightings as well.

The infamous Komodo Dragon (Varanus komodoensis), is a land-dwelling, carnivore and the planet's largest lizard. The Komodo dragon is also an excellent swimmer. From prehistoric times, the Komodo Dragon roamed these lands undiscovered until 1912. With twenty enormous griffin-like talons and layers of serrated backward-slanting teeth, the Komodo Dragon is a voracious cannibal. Fast on its feet, reaching speeds of up to 15 mph, their mouths carry a virulent bacteria which eventually immobilizes the Komodo Dragon's prey once bitten. The Komodo Dragon can reach up to 3 meters in length and weigh over 200 kilograms. The ferocious appearance and flicking yellow tounge is thought to be the source of many early mariner's tales of fire-breathing dragons prowling the islands of the Indonesian archipelago.

A Definition Of An Adventure Tour

2008-11-22T19:00:00.000-08:00

Many people dream of having amazing adventures like one might see in the movies. Other vacationers decide to vacation at the same unadventurous location. If you are looking for a change from the ordinary and want to bring some real adventure into your life, you might want to consider taking an adventure tour for your next vacation. An adventure tour can be made up of a number of different components, but the end result is that you get to explore the best that the world has to offer in a hands-on way. Keep in mind that adventure tours are not for everyone; read these examples of common adventure tour components to see if one is right for you and your family.

Most adventure tours involve hiking at one point or another, generally in conjunction with camping. Some of the hikes may be relatively short, serving as a down-to-earth method of transportation between larger components of the tour. Other hikes can be quite long, comprising a major part of the tour’s attraction. Many of the longer hikes have basic recommendations for your fitness level or they may ill require that you have a certain amount of hiking experience before you take them simply because the distances would be difficult for an out of shape individual to cover safely and in time with the rest of the group.

White water rafting is a common component of an adventure tour. Tours exist that take you on all grades of rivers, though the higher grades usually require a certain amount of rafting experience, which helps prevent you from being a danger to yourself and others. Some tours may even take you across different grades on different days, letting you build up experience over the course of the tour, allowing you to be ready for larger rapids later. Most rafting tours involve camping and may include hikes in between river sections as well.

Although not as common as rafting, a number of tours include a kayaking component as well. A number of these tours are featured in Alaska, where kayaking has somewhat of a cultural component; Alaskan kayak tours are often done in the open ocean. Kayaking is generally not the largest component of the tour, though dedicated kayaking tours do exist.

Another element that is incorporated into a number of adventure tours is rock climbing or rappelling. There is a larger element of danger involved with rock climbing than with a standard hiking tour, but the sense of accomplishment and adventure is well worth it. Many adventure tours that feature rock climbing or rappelling are centered in mountainous regions where climbing may be the primary focus of the tour. There are some hiking tours, which feature rock climbing as just a single component of the tour.

Other extreme sports may also be featured in adventure tours, though they are not as common as the elements that have already be mentioned. Some adventure tours incorporate bungee jumping, cliff diving, hang gliding, and similar activities in addition to hiking and more common components. Finding these tours may be a bit more difficult than finding a basic hiking tour, but if you are looking for a major thrill, these tours can definitely provide that extra sense of excitement.

It should be noted that not all adventure tours are wilderness based; many adventure tour companies have packages, which allow you to experience the adventures of modern life. Tours can go to cities like Las Vegas and San Francisco are relatively common, and some of them even manage to mix city entertainment components with wilderness adventure in the outlying natural parks as well. Other tours are based out of an RV, which you take from one location to the next for each daily event. Some adventure tours contain components such as paintball or other team competitions as well. These are all exciting activities, which are excellent if you are looking to escape from the traditional trip to the beach. Although these may not be as relaxing as the beach, they sure provide excitement and a new thrill to your life.

Regardless of which type of adventure tour you choose, you can expect to have a great time while on the tour. Many adventure tours consist of hiking and camping, but they may also have secondary components such as kayaking and rock climbing. If these are not what you are looking for, there are adventure tours that include extreme sports such as bungee jumping, cliff diving or hang-gliding. The length of the tours can vary from 2-3 days to up to 2 weeks or more, so you should be able to find a tour that meets your exact requirements. If you are looking for a non-traditional vacation, it is highly recommended to try an adventure vacation because it provides an experience that should last a lifetime.

Tips A Cruise Ship

2008-11-22T18:59:00.000-08:00

Cruising has become an important vacation choice. And an important part of being comfortable on a cruise is to get a cabin that suits your needs. A cruise ship is a huge maze and has cabins of different choices and set ups at all levels.

Cruising has become an important vacation choice. And an important part of being comfortable on a cruise is to get a cabin that suits your needs. A cruise ship is a huge maze and has cabins of different choices and set ups at all levels. As a part of the booking process you must make an effort to choose a cabin that will make your vacation cruise a dream one.

Try and study the layout of the ship you are traveling in either online or at the cruise line office. Whether a mainstream cruise or a luxury one each ship will have a wide variety of accommodation choices. Find out what are the choices of cabins available on the ship you are booking on. Often you will find that a ship has over twenty different categories. Find out what the differences are between a cruise ship cabin and stateroom. Ask about standard, ocean view, balcony, and suite.

Know your personal preferences and needs. Think would you enjoy a cabin with a balcony or one with a large window? Would you like to be situated a little far from traffic or close to where all the activities are ? Take into consideration the fact that it is in the cabin that you will be able to relax, watch TV, enjoy a long bath, or read a novel without being disturbed. The cabin will be your haven, home away from home for the duration of the cruise. So, take all your personal needs into consideration when booking a cabin. If the kids are going with you, look for family accommodation suites with adjoining cabins that have connecting doors.

Ask which cabins will be below or close to the water line, which ones are located way below deck and close to the engines or kitchens; check out how many stairs you will have to climb to reach deck. Consider location carefully. Find out which cabins are close to the disco or just below a jogging track or close to an elevator or lobby. Remember you may be woken up by the thud of feet while early morning joggers enjoy the sea air. Similarly try and avoid cabins that are at the bow or stem of the ship, here you will experience first hand movement of the seas and ship as well as the drone of machinery such as anchors, or propellers. Most experts would recommend cabins that are mid-ship and recommend against forward facing balconies because of the winds.

The price range varies according to size, location, facilities and so on. So, determine how much each kind of cabin will cost and which one will fit into your budget and needs. Think cost and convenience. Ask while booking about cabin guarantees. This means that you will be allocated the cabin chosen by you or one in a higher category. When a cruise line offers a run of ship guarantee it just means that you are assured a space but not a guarantee of which kind.
