The pink beach on Komodo Island in Indonesia has become famous for its light reddish sand color and turquoise water, and the good news is that it’s also pretty easy to visit on a day trip from the town of Labuan Bajo in Flores.
Komodo Beach is actually not the only pink beach Indonesia has to offer — there are several other pink beaches in the Komodo National Park, and also one on the island of Lombok, near Bali — but pink beaches in general are very rare, and there are only a handful of them worldwide.
The Komodo dragon, simply the biggest and fattest lizard on earth, is undisputed superstar of the park. Some grow to almost 10 feet long. And they eat meat, especially the little local Timor deer. Yikes. Komodo Island is also distinguished by its pink sand beach, one of only seven in the world.
In addition to dragons, these islands are also a rich refuge for buffalo, monkeys and wild horses, civets, cockatoo and macaques. Over 1,000 species of fish are happily at home in the now-protected coral reefs, mangroves and seagrass beds. There are at least 260 species of reef-building coral and 70 species of sponges, plus dugong (a manatee cousin), sharks, manta rays, and about 14 species of whale, dolphin, and sea turtles. As you may imagine, this is a world-class diving site too.
